American Economic Association Annual Meeting

Annual Meeting
Dates: January 3-5, 2009 
Call for Papers deadline: February 28, 2008
Location: San Francisco, CA
Website: http://www.vanderbilt.edu/AEA/call_for_papers.htm 

Abstracts should be submitted electronically.

Members wishing to give papers or organize complete sessions for the program for the meetings to be held in San Francisco, CA, January 3-5, 2009, are invited to submit their proposals to Professor Angus Deaton, American Economic Association, only electronically (click either Individual Paper Form or Session Form). To be considered, abstracts should contain only one Journal of Economic Literature bibliographic code and must be received by February 28, 2008. At least one author of each paper must be an AEA member.*. Proposals for complete sessions have a much higher probability of inclusion than papers submitted individually. (Non-economist authors of papers on a complete session proposal organized by a member must join the AEA only if the session is selected for the Program.) Proposals for a complete session should be submitted only by the session organizer. Sessions normally do not contain more than four papers.

No corrections will be accepted until a decision is made about inclusion on the program (usually in June). Please make sure your information is complete BEFORE submission. (Do not fax or send by email.) Econometric studies or highly mathematical papers are not appropriate for sessions sponsored by the AEA; members wishing to present such papers should submit their proposals or abstracts to the Econometric Society. Please do not transmit a completed paper. The Association discourages multiple proposals from the same person (under no circumstances should more than two be submitted by the same proposer).

All presenters for accepted sessions MUST register to attend the Annual Meeting.
