Dear all, This is a call for papers for the Oral History and Life Stories Network of the European Social Science History Conference (ESSHC). The 16th ESSHC will take place in Lyon, France, 21−24 April 2027. We invite scholars, researchers, and practitioners to submit papers addressing methodological questions and challenges in oral history, as well as the relationship between oral traditions and the construction and analysis of life stories—both in terms of processes and outcomes. Further information can be found in the attached Call for Papers. The submission deadline is April 15, 2026. We look forward to receiving your submissions for individual papers as well as sessions (upload via the ESSHC-site). Best wishes Andrea, Anne, and Malin ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Malin Thor Tureby Professor of History Proprefekt/Head of Research - Department of Society, Culture and Identity Malmö University +46 (0)40-66 57 867 https://mau.se/en/persons/malin.thor/
