2009 Conferences and workshops
Call for papers.
Workshop - "Empirical Analysis of Firm Heterogeneity in International Trade"
Venue: Centre for Globalisation Research, School of Business and Management Queen Mary, University of London
11 November 2009, 1-6pm
New firm or transaction level data sets have prompted great interest in the mechanics of international trade, leading to novel stylised facts and new theories explaining the causes and consequences of trade between nations.
This workshop will be an informal forum of discussion of the latest empirical evidence obtained from these new data sets. Our goal is to select a small number of papers in order to allow for feedback and debate from participants. Of particular interest are papers that consider the link between international trade and labour markets.
Dr Richard Kneller (University of Nottingham) has kindly agreed to deliver a keynote lecture.
There is a limited budget for reimbursement of travel expenses: please indicate in your submission if you wish to apply for partial travel costs support. There is no conference fee.
Please send your submissions (full papers or extended abstracts) to the organiser, Pedro Martins, at p.martins@qmul.ac.uk by October 9th. The list of accepted papers and the programme will be released by October 16th.
