Dear members of ESPORA.
I got this e-mail this morning.
IEHA Congress in Seville Canceled.
I hope it may help.
*******************************************************************
TO ALL THOSE INTERESTED IN THE XII INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC HISTORY
CONGRESS
It is with the deepest regret that I must let you know that, due
to causes outside our control, we have been unable to reach an
agreement enabling us to achieve the material organization of the
Seville Congress. (Its scientific organization, i.e., the edition of
the Proceedings, is nearly finished, however). Due to this inability
we have been obliged to suspend the actual meetings of the XII
International Economic History Congress.
I recommend that you ask immediately for the reimbursement of the
money that is owed you. Since we do not know the amounts you advanced
for registration dues and other concepts, you should immediately
communicate (we suggest fax, e-mail or telephone for speed) with the
company PROMOCION DE CONGRESOS EN EL SUR S.A. (Proconsur) and ask
them for immediate reimbursement of the total amount deposited.
You could send your request either to the General Manager (Mr. Pablo
Recio) or to the President (Prof. Dr. Guillermo Sierra).
In case you do not have it, the address of Promocion de Congresos en
el Sur S.A is as follows:
Promocion de Congresos en el Sur, S.A.
Av. San Francisco Javier 15, 4a Planta
41018 Seville, Spain.
Tel.: 345-492 2755; Fax: 345-492 3015; e-mail:
<proconsur@svq.servicom.es>
You may let them know the bank account to which the transfer should
be made and/or any other pertinent details.
I also request that you send a copy of your claim and copies of your
order forms to me at the FUNDACION DE HISTORIA ECONOMICA, Amado Nervo
5 2A, 28007 Madrid (Tel. and fax: 341-502 0268; e-mail:
<econhist@compuserve.com>), since Promocion de Congresos en el Sur
S.A. has not seen it fit to provide me with this information.
If you know of any other people who may have registered in the XII
Congress I suggest that you let her/him know about the present
letter.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
Sincerely,
Gabriel Tortella
President, International Economic History Association
