16th World Congress of the Association for Social Economics
Putting the Social Back into Economics
Colorado State University
Fort Collins, Colorado
June 11-13, 2018
Social economics studies the ethical & social causes, as well as the ethical & social consequences, of economic behavior, institutions, organizations, theory, and policy. The 16th World Congress in Social Economics will focus on how economics can be broadened by including ideas from social economics and how social economics can make contributions to other schools of economic thought.
We are accepting submissions of individual papers and complete sessions. These can be theoretical, methodological, historical, empirical, or policy oriented. While we will give preference to papers directly related to the above theme, especially papers that look at income inequality and/or income distribution from a social perspective, we welcome all papers addressing the interests and concerns of social economists. Routledge has expressed interested in doing a conference volume containing papers centered on the conference theme.
Fort Collins is located at the Rocky Mountains foothills and 60 miles north of Denver. A shuttle bus is available to take you from the Denver airport to campus.
The submission deadline is February 28, 2018. Decisions announced around March 31. All submissions should be made to Steven Pressman (pressman@monmouth.edu).
