The Summer School in Economic History opens an original mode how to incorporate the V4 historiographies of economic history into the international network. First, it will encourage the young generation of historians to enter an international scene and to take part in an open academic discussion. Second, the joint meetings of senior scholars during the V4 Summer School could lead to a preparation of the joint research activities. Doing this, the V4 Summer School will contribute to the development of research marked by intellectual and scientific
significance as well as by direct social impact.
The joint V4 Summer School will provide economic history students from V4 countries with a full understanding of the newest research trends in the field and offer a friendly atmosphere, in which they can discuss their research in the company of leading, distinguished international scholars as well as their student peers. The V4 Summer School will incorporate:
1. Lectures and seminars on recent methodological developments in econąomic history delivered by scholars from prestigious universities
2. Lecture on available archives and databases in V4 countries delivered by specialists from V4 countries
3. Assigned discussion about participants' PhD theses
4. Building of a network of V4 scholars.
