CALL FOR PAPERS

Session on History & Philosophy of Economics at the

FIFTH ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE ASSOCIATION FOR HETERODOX ECONOMICS

8-9 July 2003, Nottingham Trent University, United Kingdom

There will be a Special Session on the History & Philosophy of Economics at
the fifth Annual Conference of the Association for Heterodox Economics, to
be held at Nottingham Trent University, on Tuesday and Wednesday 8-9 July
2003.  If you would like to give a paper on any aspect of the History of
Economic Thought at the conference, please send me (details below) an
abstract by the end of March 2003.

The theme of the session will be resource allocation, considered very
broadly.  So papers would be welcome on the debate on calculation under
socialism, on changing modes of resource allocation in transitional
economies, on corruption and resource allocation, on planning and the
market, on the social or macro level consequences of different kinds of
resource allocation decision-making frameworks, and on the methodological
frameworks for considering these issues, such as methodological
individualism and holism.  Papers which explicitly address this theme will
be given preference.

Further information may be obtained from me, Andy Denis
(andy.denis@xxxxxxxxxx).

Please send your abstract to me, Andy Denis (andy.denis@xxxxxxxxxx) and copy
to Veronica Foster (veronica.foster@xxxxxxxxx) by end March 2003.  My postal
addresses is: Andy Denis, Department of Economics, School of Social
Sciences, City University, Northampton Square, London, United Kingdom, EC1V
