Call for Papers
CHORD workshop: 'Retailing and Community: The Social Dimensions of Commerce in Historical Perspective'
Thursday 9 May 2019

University of Wolverhampton, UK

 

The Centre for the History of Retailing and Distribution ­invites submissions for a workshop that aims to explore the social, activist and communal aspects of retail from a historical perspective.

Papers focusing on any historical period, geographical area or topic are welcome. We invite both experienced and new speakers, including speakers without an institutional affiliation. Potential speakers are welcome to discuss their ideas with the organiser before submission (please see details below).

The workshop web-page is at: https://retailhistory.wordpress.com/2018/10/25/cfp-community/

Some of the themes that  might be considered include (but are not limited to):

- Co-operative and community shops

- Retailer – community relations

- Charity shops, fairs and bazaars

- Not-for-profit retail and commerce

- The material culture of charity

- Charity, networks and sociability

- Consumer protests and boycotts

- Charity fund-raising and distribution networks

 

Individual papers are usually 20 minutes in length, followed by 10 minutes for questions and discussion. We also welcome shorter, 10 minute ‘work in progress’ presentations, also followed by 10 minutes for discussion.

 

To submit a proposal, please send title and abstract of c.300 to 400 words, specifying whether you are proposing a 10 or a 20 minute presentation to Laura Ugolini, at l.ugolini at wlv.ac.uk by 15 February 2019.

 

If you are unsure whether to submit a proposal or would like to discuss your ideas before submission, please e-mail Laura Ugolini at l.ugolini at wlv.ac.uk
