North American Winter Meeting


The 2007 joint meeting with the American Economic Association will be held in Chicago, Illinois, January 5-7, 2007, as part of the Allied Social Science Association Meeting. The program will consist primarily of contributed papers. The program committee will be co-chaired by Timothy Kehoe of the University of Minnesota and Antonio Merlo of the University of Pennsylvania.

Prospective contributors are invited to submit titles and abstracts of their papers before April 28, 2006. All abstracts are required to be submitted electronically as plain text at the conference website: http://www.econometricsociety.org/conference/NAWM2007.

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.
