In June/July 2008 NHIST has organized a Summer School in Kőszeg/Hungary. The school brought together representatives of NHIST, external scholars such as Catherine Hall (University College London) and Benedikt Stuchtey (German Historical Institute London) as well as younger researchers who are occupied with the history of historiography.

The Summer School provided an opportunity to promote the results of the NHIST programme to the next generation of academics across Europe and to identify new projects and researchers in the history of historiography using comparative and cultural transfer approaches. It allowed delegates from 16 European countries to interact and exchange knowledge and experience across generations and develop their themes and approaches.

The section includes the abstracts of the delegates as well as a report on the summer school.
