European Architectural History Network, EAHN 2022 : 7th International Meeting. Conference Proceedings

Abstract

The 7th EAHN Biennial Meeting (Madrid, June 15-19, 2022) attracted a relevant collection of papers on various topics.

Like its predecessors, EAHN 2022 aimed to promote high quality research. As a diverse field, architectural history requires interaction and discussion among people with different interests and backgrounds. Beginning and experienced theorists and practitioners, people from different disciplines and different countries gathered both in person and virtually to learn from and contribute to each other’s growth.

The conference was organized in two calls. The first one to define the sessions and round tables, and the second one to select the participants.

In the first call there were a total of 85 session and roundtable proposals, evaluated in 5 peer-reviewed tracks. Of these, the following contributions were accepted: 20 sessions and 5 roundtables . To participate in these, a total of 486 submissions, evaluated in 25 peer-reviewed tracks, were received. The acceptance rate for contributions received in the peer-reviewed tracks was 29,41% for session and roundtable proposals, 25,72% for full papers and roundtable lectures, and 41,51% for interest group meeting participants.

Many of these contributions were accepted after further review to be included in the present proceedings. The final decision on acceptance or rejection of full papers was taken in an Editorial Committee meeting held in September 2022. The meeting discussed a consistent set of criteria to deal with inevitable differences among many reviewers, and the expert advice of the corresponding session chairs and reviewers was taken in consideration.
