Call for Papers - Workshop โ€œTrust, institutions, and capitalism in early modern Europeโ€
On Friday 24 April 2026, the section Economic, Social and Demographic History of Radboud University,
supported by the N.W. Posthumus Institute, will host the international workshop on โ€œTrust, institutions, and
capitalism in early modern Europeโ€, with prof. Craig Muldrew (University of Cambridge). The workshop is
organized by Posthumus PhD Marte Stoffers (Radboud University).
The workshop wants to explore the relationship between the behaviours and norms of economic actors and
the accumulation of credit and capital in early modern Europe. Examples of themes that can be explored
include, but are not limited to:
โ€ข identifying the role of individuals in the creation of formal and informal institutions;
โ€ข the interactions between economic agents and organizations;
โ€ข the role of social and cultural capital for generating trust in rural or urban societies;
โ€ข the role of fiat money in economic development, or;
โ€ข the emergence of capitalism more broadly.
The workshop will be in the morning (10:00-14:30) and is open to early-career researchers
(MA/PhD/Postdoc) who wish to receive feedback on their (ongoing) research. 4 participants will be invited to
present their work in short presentations, after which the floor is open for feedback and discussion.
Participants are expected to precirculate a paper and read each otherโ€™s papers. Submissions may take the
form of draft or finished papers, or dissertation chapters written in English. As the aim of the workshop is
exchange and discussion, contributions in work-in-progress form are welcome.
If you are interested in participating, please submit an abstract of max. 500 words and a one-page CV to
marte.stoffers@ru.nl. The deadline for submission is 6 March 2026. Notification of acceptance will be sent
