The conference is a unique setting for PhD students and early career researchers to discuss ongoing research related to the history of European integration. The conference consists of panel sessions focused on submitted research papers, as well as debates on historiographical and methodological approaches. The aim of the conference is to provide an informal atmosphere in which new ideas and research directions, as well as advice on publishing and academic careers can be shared and debated.

CfP 15th annual HEIRS Conference

Experts, knowledge and the (de)legitimization of European politics

University of Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne, Paris, 23-24 May 2019

Since the beginning of the European integration process, decision-makers have worked closely with experts and researchers to formulate and implement policies. These actors can be considered as an integral part of European politics.

The 15^th HEIRS Conference aims to reassess the ambivalent role of experts and expert knowledge in the history of European integration. We encourage PhD students and early career researchers to submit a proposal. The deadline for the submission of proposals is 15 December 2018.
