The University of Tübingen’s Collaborative Research Center 923 – “Threatened Orders: Societies under Stress”(Germany) – provides funding for an intensive three-day event aimed at PhD students in business history or economic history working on any topic that overlaps with the theme of the school (for more details, see “Further Notes for Applicants” below). Students will, the pandemic permitting, be hosted in the historic town of Tübingen and will present, debate and discuss their works-in-progress with leading international scholars within a world-class university.

The school aims to provide doctoral students with an overview of relevant research and innovative tools and methodologies in the fields of business and economic history. It is the third event in this series organised jointly by the Seminar für Neuere Geschichte (University of Tübingen) and the Centre for Business History in Scotland (University of Glasgow).

The doctoral student will work within the research project "Migration policy, migrant selection and labor market outcomes in Sweden and Denmark, 1986-2017". The project is motivated by the significant immigration that has characterized countries in Western Europe in recent decades, in recent years increasingly dominated by refugee and family reunification migration. While a large literature has illustrated factors that are particularly important for the individual's socio-economic integration, the understanding of how integration is affected by migration policy and selection is lacking. Within the project, individual register data for the total population in Sweden and Denmark between 1986-2017 will be used, in combination with aggregated information on policy changes over time, in order to contribute to the understanding of a topic of great scientific and social importance. The study context is optimal in several respects. Both countries have experienced significant immigration at the same time as they have adopted different migration policies during the period. Another advantage can be traced to Sweden's and Denmark's geographical proximity and deep institutional, socio-economic and cultural similarities, something that enables the effects of policy changes to be more easily identified.

The aim of the program is to examine the careers of women and men in science and technology with the use of micro (register) data. Our goal is to investigate patterns in scientific and inventive careers and highlight factors that create gender differences in such paths (e.g., family background, fertility, educational choices, resources). We will look at people’s career advances and productivity in terms of quantity and quality of scientific and inventive output. The student will be supervised by the senior faculty involved in the project and use large-scale micro data to track people’s careers in science and technology. Thus, interest in, and ideally experience of such data and methods is highly valued.

At the Department of Economic and Social History of the Vienna Faculty of History, Assistant Prof. Federico D’Onofrio is looking for a University Assistant prae doc (Ph.D. student) in the field of economic and social or business history. Successful candidates will join the team of the project “DATAREV, Leading the first data revolution in European agriculture: farm accountancy data and their impact 1870–1945”. The project investigates accounting as a crucial tool of Europe’s agricultural modernization. 

Over the last 20 years, historiography has observed that international institutions are ideal case-studies for the study of transnational connections. Such an analysis can be made on several levels: in addition to investigating institutional structures or founding principles, an examination of the concrete functioning of these bodies allows us to analyze not only the forms and strategies of interstate political relations, but also the transnational circulation of problems, proposals, and people. From this point of view, the emergence of international organizations after WWI is linked to the appearance of a new figure in the world of work: the international officer, embedded within – and in turn the producer of – broader political and epistemic networks. The concept of "epistemic network" was introduced by Jasmien Van Daele and then adopted by Sandrine Kott to define and analyze a part of the social linkages revolving around the International Labour Organization (ILO), which was founded in 1919 to strengthen the protections of workers and the triangular dialogue between trade unions, business representatives, and public authorities. Against this setting, epistemic networks are defined by intense exchanges and debates characterized by high specialization, by sharing practices that are first spontaneous and then slowly formalized, and by the aim to elaborate proposals that move beyond the dimension and purpose of the single nation state.

The European Social Science History Conference is one of the largest congresses for the historical sciences in the world. It brings together scholars who explain historical phenomena using the methods of the social sciences. It welcomes participants working on a wide range of topics and any historical period.
