The
previous fast track meetings were held in 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2017 in Paris,
Lisbon and London, organized by the European Historical Economics Society and
the editors of the European Review of Economic History. They resulted in the
publication of several high-quality papers in the European Review of Economic
History. The idea of the meeting is to provide feedback and coaching to junior
scholars (those no more than five years from completion of their PhD) working
in any field of Economic History and to give them a chance to see their
articles appear in print quickly.
SUBMISSION
GUIDELINES
Those
interested should submit their papers to European Review of Economic History,
via the manuscript central system -https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/ereh- no later
than 30th November 2020. When submitting through manuscript central, please

Track.
PAPER
EVALUATION
The most
promising papers will be selected for the Fast Track Meeting by the editors.
This meeting will take place online between 15th and 22nd
December (time/date for presentations will be adjusted to authors’
constraints). The presentations will be attended by the editors and a group of
external referees. The objective of this meeting is to improve the quality of
the submissions and to streamline the process of refereeing. We recognize that
diverse ideas, experiences, backgrounds and perspectives are fundamental to
successful publication and we are committed to ensuring that this panel is
inclusive, diverse, and representative of the broad Economic History community.
The
editorial board commits to returning editorial decisions and referee reports to
the authors by January 2021.
