Social Science History Association (SSHA, founded in 1974) is an international interdisciplinary professional association dedicated to applying social scientific theories, quantitative methods, and qualitative comparative frameworks to historical inquiry. SSHA serves as an umbrella organization bringing together scholars across history, sociology, economics, political science, demography, and anthropology. The association is organized around approximately 18 thematic interdisciplinary networks (such as Migration/Immigration, States and Society, Gender, Politics, and Quantitative Methods) rather than traditional departmental divisions. SSHA publishes the peer-reviewed quarterly journal Social Science History (published by Cambridge University Press) and hosts an annual national conference featuring interdisciplinary panels, book prizes, and doctoral travel grants.
