The European Studies First Article Prize honors the writers of the best first articles on European studies published within a two-year period and will be awarded to two scholars, one working in the humanities and one in the social sciences.
A multi-disciplinary First Article Prize Committee appointed by CES will choose the winners. Each prize winner will receive $250 and public recognition on CES’ website and publications.
