The Research Network on the Historical Study of States and Regimes of the Council for European Studies invites applications for our Annual Graduate Student Workshop to be held on June, 15th 2027 in Leiden, NL. This is a pre-conference workshop to be held in advance of the Council for European Studies 2027 Annual Meeting.
We seek applications from advanced graduate students working on comparative historical topics within European studies, broadly conceived. The process is open to graduate students working in any discipline in the humanities and social sciences and using any methodology or approach. We are open to work that is concerned both with explaining past outcomes or that looks at the impact of past developments in explaining contemporary outcomes. We also welcome work that broadens the gaze of European studies by engaging with other literatures, perspectives, and regions that shed light on the comparative history of Europe.
Participants in the Graduate Workshop will receive a registration fee waiver to attend the Annual Conference of Europeanists, which will take place immediately after the workshop on June 16-18, 2027 in Leiden. Applicants are strongly encouraged to submit proposals to present at the conference as well. Please see the CES call for proposals for more information on the conference.
The deadline to complete this application is December 15th 2026.
