The Gyorgy Ranki Biennial Prize is awarded every other year for an Outstanding Book on the Economic History of Europe
DEADLINE FOR ENTRIES: January 15, 2025
The Ranki Prize was established by the Economic History Association in 1989 to honor the late Gyorgy Ranki, a distinguished Hungarian economic historian who taught in both Hungary and the United States. The Ranki Prize is awarded biennially for an outstanding book in European economic history and is in the amount of $1,200. It alternates with the Alice Hanson Jones Prize for a book in North American (including Caribbean) economic history and coincides with the Lindert-Williamson Prize.

To promote participation from regions normally less represented at international scientific conferences, the 20th WEHC 2024 has set up a significant support scheme for scholars who have less access to funding than those from OECD countries. Grant holders may present a paper, organise or chair a session, present a Poster, or simply attend the Congress, but priority will be given to those who will play an active part.

If mining and social and environmental responsibility seem incompatible in practice, how can we account for the rhetoric that promotes a “responsible mine”? What role(s) do technical and political discourses play in the adoption and justification of resource exploitation and production strategies? What influence do companies and experts have on these debates? Through a historical or longitudinal perspective, this issue of Entreprises et Histoire explores the intersections and interplay of actors between CSR and social changes that may or may not underpin the rhetoric of a return to mining and a convergence between the so-called “energy transition” and “ecological transition”. 

IHE-EHR is the journal of the Spanish Economic History Association (AEHE), and publishes high-quality, open-access articles in economic history and the history of economic thought, in English and Spanish.
