The WHS subsection also organizes occasional working conferences. The first of these was held at the University of Lund, Sweden March 25-28, 1995. Routledge has published a volume composed of papers given at this conference -- World System History: The Social Science of Long-Term Change, Edited by: Robert A Denemark, Jonathan Friedman, Barry K. Gills, George Modelski .
