Book Award
The Council's European Studies Book Award is awarded every two years and honors the best first book on any subject in European Studies published within a two-year period. A multi-disciplinary Book Award Committee (appointed by the Council’s Executive Committee) chooses the winner, and a formal presentation of the award is conducted at the Council’s International Conference of Europeanists. The winning author receives $1000 and travel assistance to attend the conference and award ceremony.
