The 12th Annual Conference of INFER will take place at the University of Muenster in Germany from 03 September to 05 September 2010.
The Call for Papers is still open (deadline 15 June 2010).
As usual, papers can be submitted from all areas of economics and finance.
We especially encourage young economists to submit papers to the young economist award.
We also encourage researchers to organise their own special sessions on any topic of interest.
Conference Objectives
The INFER Annual Conference is the main annual event of the International Network for Economic Research. The INFER Annual Conference provides a great opportunity for members and non-members of INFER alike to exchange ideas and is open to any field of research in economics. Researchers are invited to submit theoretical and applied papers across all areas of economics, including this year’s special topic “Institutional Economics and Economic Policy: addressing the practical and theoretical challenges of applied economics”. Young researchers are also encouraged to apply for the young economist award of INFER. Researchers are also encouraged to organize their own sessions.
