*** The Global Network on Financial Geography (FinGeo) seeks to award its Dissertation Prize to an outstanding doctoral dissertation in the field of financial geography. While we want to attract dissertations with a clear spatial component, we wish to encourage applications from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds, including but not restricted to anthropology, geography, history, sociology, political science, and economics. We welcome contributions from students in institutions from across the world, focusing on financial processes taking place anywhere on the globe. Eligible candidates should have completed and defended their PhD in 2016. The award consists of €500 in prize money and an invitation to present research at a FINGEO-sponsored event. FinGeo <http://www.regionalstudies.org/networks/network/financial-geographies-fingeo> is an open and interdisciplinary network of academics, practitioners and other people interested in research on the spatiality of money and finance and its implications for the development of economy, society, and nature. EUFINGEO <http://www.cosmopolis.be/research/european-financial-geography-network-eufingeo> is a network sponsored by Vrije Universiteit Brussels which seeks to build a European community of financial geographers. Application deadline is 1st June 2017. Please send a digital copy to <mailto:david.bass...@vub.be> david.bass...@vub.be including a recommendation letter by your supervisor(s).
