CALL FOR PAPERS: YOUNG SCHOLARS SESSIONS AT THE 2009 HISTORY OF 
ECONOMICS SOCIETY MEETINGS

The 2009 History of Economics Society Conference will be held over 
June 26-29 at the University of Colorado Denver. Each year, the 
History of Economics Society supports Young Scholars (YS) who wish to 
present papers at the annual HES Conference. Selected HES Young 
Scholars receive free registration, a banquet ticket and a year's 
membership to the Society. For the 2009 HES Conference, funds will 
also be made available to defray housing costs for up to five Young Scholars.

Begun in 2000, the YS Program consistently features some of the most 
interesting and innovation scholarship at the HES Conference. If you, 
or a student you know, is interested, please submit a Young Scholar's 
Paper Proposal using the link on the Conference Website 
(<http://www.hes-conference2009.com/>http://www.hes-conference2009.com/). 
Please designate in your abstract that this is a "Young Scholar 
Proposal." The deadline for submissions is February 15, 2009.

 From the proposal abstracts received, in consultation with the 
conference organizer, the President (Avi Cohen) will create up to 4 
thematically linked Young Scholar sessions. Abstracts will be chosen 
based on originality and scholarly merit as well as clarity of 
exposition and the strength of the argument. If the President feels 
there are good abstracts that fail to fit with other YS proposals 
thematically, he has the option of asking the HES conference 
organizer to fit the additional Young Scholars into the regular 
program. All Young Scholars whose abstracts are chosen will receive 
free registration, a banquet ticket and a year's membership to the Society.

In addition, YS who submit their full paper for consideration by the 
end of April 2009 will be considered for free conference 
accommodation. From submitted papers, the HES President may choose up 
to 5 Young Scholars for free accommodation. A Young Scholar must be a 
PhD candidate or have obtained the PhD in the 2 years preceding the 
HES Conference.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Best wishes,

Steven Medema
2009 HES Conference Organizer
