Young Scholar’s Prize
In relation to the forthcoming Interim RCHS Conference in Dublin, June 2012, the RCHS is pleased to announce – for the second time (the first time was in relation to the World Congress in Gothenburg) – the RCHS Young Scholar’s Prize. The aim of the prize is to encourage research among younger scholars within the RCHS field. Eligible are papers accepted to the coming RCHS Interim Conference in Dublin. Authors should be in the early stages of their careers, i.e. they should be either PhD candidates or their PhD degrees should not be older than three years (the degree should have been awarded 2009 or later).
The prize committee will consist of three jury members: Irmela Gorges (chair), E. Stina Lyon and Cherry Schrecker.
The winner of the prize (€500) will be announced by the jury at the RCHS Business Meeting in Dublin.
Submissions to the RCHS Young Scholars Prize, including the paper and a short CV, should be sent separately via email (and entitled “RCHS Prize” in the subject line) to the RCHS secretary (per.wisselgren@soc.umu.se) no later than May 31, 2012. The Secretary will forward all submitted contributions to the jury members directly after the deadline.
RCHS Newsletter is produced two
or three times a year; in addition to news of conference
plans it also includes lists of members and their addresses,
details of new members and their special interests, details
of new publications by members, news and notes about such
matters as archives, conferences of other bodies, book
recommendations, members' work in progress, members' moves
and promotions, and obituaries of members who have died.
It is hoped to start a series of short accounts of work
in the history of sociology in countries whose languages
are less widely spoken among the membership, to encourage
wider communication.
