The local organizing institutions are the Department of Social Science History and the Department of History at the University of Helsinki, in collaboration with the Finnish Economic History Association. The organisers sincerely hope that this event will attract scholars from all parts of the world and offer a forum for fruitful discussion of recent developments in this important area of historical research. It is also hoped that this week will give congress participants a chance to become acquainted with the capital of Finland and its surroundings. Following the first and second calls for proposals, the Executive Committee of the IEHA has approved 126 sessions for inclusion in the academic programme of the congress. They will cover periods from antiquity to the present day, and a variety of regions around the world. The list of sessions is given in this brochure as well as on the congress website: www.helsinki.fi/iehc2006, which will be updated at regular intervals. This brochure also contains practical information on travelling and accommodation, as well as on the congress venue. It also lists a choice of excursions to be arranged during the event as well as a number of post-congress tours. The Executive Committee of the IEHA decided not to include a single dedicated excursion day, but to offer various trips around the middle of the week, from Tuesday to Thursday. There are many local agencies offering a wide variety of outings, and the people at the congress information desk will be happy to give more details. We look forward to seeing you in Helsinki!
