Social Sciences
We invite you to take part in Macrohistorical Dynamics (MHD) panels of the 40th annual meeting of the Social Science History Association, November 12-15, 2015 in Baltimore. For more information on the meeting as well as the call for proposals, please refer to the SSHA website.
The deadline for paper and/or panel submissions is February 14, 2015.
The members of the Social Science History Association share a common interest in interdisciplinary and systematic approaches to historical research, and many of us find the SSHA one of the most stimulating conferences that we attend.
The thematic topic of the 2015 annual meeting is ?Pluralism and Community: Social Science History Perspectives? ? a theme that works very well with the research interests of many of the scholars involved in the Macrohistorical Dynamics network.
Macrohistorical Dynamics (MHD) is an interdisciplinary social science research field that focuses on problems of large-scale, comparative historical inquiry. Contributors to the field have brought perspective on a wide variety of problem areas, including macro- and historical sociology; comparative histories; world history; world-system analysis; comparative study of civilizations; philosophy of history; and studies of long-term socio-ecological, technological, demographic, cultural, and political trends and transformations. The Macrohistorical Dynamics network brings a rigorous perspective to bear on questions having to do with ?large? history.
The list of MHD panel themes for 2015 is open, and we encourage you to submit proposals for paper topics or panel themes.
SSHA requests that submissions be made by means of its web conference management system. Paper title, brief abstract, and contact information should be submitted on the site www.ssha.org, where the general SSHA 2015 call for papers is also available. (If you haven?t used the system previously you will need to create an account, which is a very simple process.) The direct link for submissions is now available at:
http://prod.sshaconference.org/
NOTE: There is an SSHA rule concerning book sessions. For a book session to proceed, the author (or at least one of multiple authors) MUST be present. Proposals for book sessions should only be submitted if there is high confidence that the author will be able to travel to Baltimore November 12-15, 2015.
SSHA has set up a mechanism for networks to share papers, so even if you have a solo paper, send the idea along. It is possible and useful to identify a paper not only by the MHD network, but also by some other co-sponsoring networks--for example, Theory/Methods, Historical Geography, Politics, Culture, Economics, etc. Co-sponsored panels and papers are encouraged by the SSHA Program Committee as a means of broadening the visibility of the various networks.
Feel free to contact the network organizers for further information.
