Call for Papers
The European History Section of the Southern Historical Association invites proposals for individual papers and complete panels for presentation at its annual meeting in Mobile, Alabama, November 1-4, 2012. Papers on any aspect of European history, covering any time period, are welcome. The program committee especially encourages proposals involving comparative history, such as Europe and the Americas, Europe and Africa, or Europe and Asia.

Panels should consist of two or three papers, a commentator, and a chair. Doctoral students, as well as faculty members and independent scholars are welcome to submit individual papers or panels. A panel should not consist exclusively of graduate students and should avoid having doctoral advisors serve as commentators if their graduate students are on the same panel. All papers read are eligible for the Parker/ Schmitt/Simpson award. For more information about the award or about the European History Section of the SHA, go to: 

www.europeanhistorysection.org

Submissions should include a one-page description of each paper and a short (1-2 page) c.v. of each panelist. In the case of panels, please include the title of the panel and a short description of the topic and its rationale as a panel and indicate the name of the panel organizer. Proposals must be received by October 14, 2011. Panelists must be current members of the EHS at the time of the Conference of 2012. Please check the web (see above) for the membership form.
