The Migration Networks is one of the largest and most active networks at the SSHA. We hereby invite you to submit panels (greatly encouraged) and papers related to the theme of migration for the forthcoming conference on “Histories of Capitalism” in Vancouver. We also encourage papers and panels on all aspects of social science history – as well as interdisciplinary panels.

- Migrant Entrepreneurs-Economic Migration
