The 2009 North American Winter Meeting of the Econometric Society will be held in San Francisco, CA, from January 3 to 5, 2009, as part of the annual meeting of the Allied Social Science Associations. The program will consist of contributed and invited papers. It is hoped that the research presented will represent a broad spectrum of applied and theoretical economics and econometrics. The program committee will
be chaired by Steven Durlauf of University of Wisconsin–Madison.

Prospective contributors are invited to submit titles and abstracts of their papers by April 25, 2008.  All abstracts are required to be submitted electronically as plain text at the conference website:

At least one co-author must be a member of the Society or must join prior to submission. This can be done at www.econometricsociety.org.

Submitted abstracts should not be over 300 words in length. Each person may submit only one paper, or be a co-author on multiple submissions provided that if all such papers were accepted, no person would present more than one paper. Abstracts should represent original manuscripts not previously presented to any Econometric Society regional meeting or submitted to other professional organizations for presentation at these same meetings. The following information should also be provided electronically at the time of submission: the authors' names, affiliations, complete addresses, telephone and fax numbers; both the email addresses and web sites (if any) of the submitters; the JEL primary field name and number; and the paper title.
