Dear recipient,
On behalf of the organising and scientific committees, allow me to cordially invite you to join us for the 54th annual meeting of
The History of Economic Thought Society (THETS) that will be hosted by the Centre of Political Economy, Governance, Finance and Accountability, at the University of Greenwich in London, from the 4th to the 6th of September 2024.
THETS is one of the longest established groups of scholars with an interest in the history of economic thought, the history of economics and economic knowledge. Annual meetings have been organized since 1968.
Papers dealing with any aspect of the history of economic thought (HET) from any period are welcome. We encourage submissions from disciplines across the humanities and social sciences. We welcome and encourage papers taking a non-European or global perspective,
particularities of pedagogical approaches and practice of the HET in contemporary universities, and present-day significance of engagement with the HET in economics as a field in need of decolonising, intersectionality, and interdisciplinarity. Presentations
by PhD students and early career scholars are particularly encouraged. The Society will make available a limited number of stipends to cover part of the cost of attendance for young scholars.
Important dates:
Abstract proposals should be sent to THETS2024[at]greenwich.ac.uk by 30th April 2024; full papers by 28th July, 2024.
Notification of acceptance: 27th May, 2024.
Proposals and papers should have THETS 2024 in the subject line. Please attach a copy of your CV if you wish to be considered for a young scholar stipend.
