                Amsterdam, 
                The Netherlands 
                5-7 March 1998 
 
The Second European Social Science History Conference will be held in 
the town of Amsterdam, probably on 5-7 March 1998. The ESSHC aims at 
bringing together scholars interested in explaining historical phenomena 
using the methods of the social sciences. The conference is 
characterized by a lively exchange in many small groups, rather than by 
formal plenary sessions. The Conference welcomes papers and sessions on 
any topic and any historical period. It is organised in a large number 
of networks which cover a certain topic (e.g. criminal justice, 
family/demography, social inequality, economics). This Conference fee 
will be dfl. 150 (at present this is about US $ 90). The deadline for 
sending in an abstract is 30 April 1997.
