Sixth International Conference on Urban History
Power, Knowledge and Society in the City.

Edinburgh 5, 6 and 7 September 2002

Call for Papers

European Association of Urban Historians
------------------------------------------

You are invited to take part in the Sixth International Conference of the
European Association of Urban Historians (EAUH) which takes place in
Edinburgh from Wednesday 4th to Saturday 7th of September 2002. The
conference begins with an informal reception on Wednesday evening. On
Thursday morning there will be an opportunity to see some of the resources
available for urban historians in Edinburgh. The central part of the
conference consists of two plenary lectures and a wide variety of sessions,
and round table

The EAUH was established in 1989 with the support of the European Union.
Our conference which takes place every two years is the largest and most
important meeting of urban historians in Europe and is now noted for
attracting urban historians from across the globe. We expect over 300
participants from a wide range of disciplines. The title of our conference,
Power, Knowledge and Society in the City, has been chosen to celebrate the
fact that Edinburgh in the 18th century was home to some of the most
innovative thinking of the enlightenment and that Edinburgh in the 21st
century is home to the new devolved parliament of Scotland. The title also
recognises both established and innovative work by urban historians. Indeed
one of the merits of urban history is the manner in which it brings
together such a range of methodologies, intellectual approaches, periods,
places and topics. As the list of session topics indicates, there is no
area of our curiosity as urban historians which is excluded from this
conference.

You are invited to submit proposals for papers to the session organizers
and above all to come, take part and enjoy. Full details of registration
and accomodation will be published shortly. Our web address will be

http://esh.ed.ac.uk/urban_history/

If you wish to present a paper at any of the sessions, please send a one
page outline to the appropriate session organizers, as soon as possible and
in any case before October First, 2001. You will be notified of acceptance
by the end of November. Accepted paper givers must send their text [max.
six pages -420 words per page - 20 minutes of speech]. This should be done
before April 30, 2002. You must send one copy to the session organizer. You
must send one copy to the conference organizer. You must also register for
the conference. In order to ensure maximum effective discussion we intend
to place papers on the conference web site. Please send an electronic
version, preferably by e mail attachment to

UHEDIN2002ed.ac.uk

By April 2002.
