Call for Papers (KAEA-WEAI)

The 90th Annual Conference of the Western Economic Association International (WEAI) will be held on June 28 – July 2, 2015 at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki, Hawaii. The Korea-America Economic Association (KAEA) plans to organize four sessions at the WEAI conference. We sincerely invite the members of the KAEA or the KEA to join in this wonderful event. Graduate students are also strongly encouraged to participate in sessions.

Theoretical and empirical papers on all aspects of economics are welcome. Please submit a manuscript or an extended abstract to Professor Hyeongwoo Kim (gmmkim@gmail.com) by e-mail including

(i) the JEL code(s),
(ii) 3-5 key words, and
(iii) your membership status with the KAEA or the KEA

Submission deadline is February 1 (Sunday), 2015. If accepted, your final version manuscript is due June 10 (Wednesday), 2015.

There is no submission fee for members of the KAEA or the KEA. In addition, the session participants can register at the WEAI member’s rate regardless of their membership status with the WEAI. However, all participants will be required to register for the conference and responsible for their own expenses.

Submitted papers will be blind-reviewed by the referees. All presenters are strongly urged to serve as discussants (or session chairs, if requested) for the WEAI-KAEA sessions.
