Joseph J. Spengler Book Prize of the History of Economics Society
Call for nominations
Nominations are solicited for the annual Spengler Book Prize, to be
awarded at the 2007 annual conference of the History of Economics
Society.
Eligible works must be original books on the history of economics,
published in English no earlier than January 1, 2005.
Edited volumes, textbooks, and doctoral dissertations are not
eligible. Books nominated in previous years that still remain
eligible may be re-nominated.
There are two paths for nomination. Any publisher may nominate one
or two books and should submit a nominating note and four copies of
the book for each book nominated. Any individual, including a book's author, may submit
a nominating note and four copies of the book nominated.
(Individual nominators may wish to ask the nominee's publisher to
supply the copies). Before nominating a book, individuals may wish
to check with Tim Leonard, HES Secretary, to see whether the book has been nominated
already.
Nominations should be submitted to Tim Leonard, Secretary, History of
Economics Society, Department of Economics, Princeton
University, Fisher Hall, Princeton, NJ, United States, 08544.
To be considered, nominations (and the four book copies) must be
received no later than December 21, 2006.
In addition to the honor of the award, the recipient will receive a
stipend of $500 and travel expenses of up to $500 to attend the 2007
annual conference of the History of Economics Society. (These amounts will be shared in
the event a shared award is made.)
