Call for Papers  
  
The History of Economics Society will sponsor four sessions at the  
Allied Social Sciences Association (ASSA) meetings, January 5-7, 2007 in  
Chicago, IL.  Please submit session proposals, suggestions for  
organizing sessions and abstracts for papers (approx. 200 words) no  
later than May 1, 2006.  Proposals should be sent via email to the HES  
Vice President, Jerry Evensky, at [log in to unmask]  Topics proposed  
should be related to history of economics or to subjects of related  
interest.    
  
Session Objectives and Preferences  
  
The ASSA offers the History of Economics Society a rare opportunity to  
present high quality research in our field to a large audience of  
professional economists who are not working in the field, but who might  
find the history of economics a valuable resource for their research and  
teaching.  
  
With that in mind, preference will be given first and foremost to high  
quality.  Then, among high quality submissions, preference will be given  
to submissions that are judged to have the greatest potential for  
crossover interest and thus the greatest potential to attract a  
significant audience that envisions benefits from the history of  
economics for their research or teaching.  
  
Sessions are almost invariably more interesting if the topics of  
the presentations are well integrated.  For this reason submissions for  
whole sessions will be given preferential consideration.  
  
A Note on Process  
  
Responses to well constructed proposals will certainly be complimentary,   
and may offer suggestions and encouragement for further development of the proposal.
Please understand, however, that compliments, suggestions, or encouragement do not connote
acceptance.  Please do not assume a proposal is accepted until an official notice of
acceptance is received.
