[Claude Diebolt]

Call for Papers: 5th BETA-Workshop in Historical Economics: 15-16 May 2009

The 2009 annual BETA-Workshop in Historical Economics will be hosted
by the University of Strasbourg from 15 to 16 May and organized in
association with the Bureau d'Economie Théorique et Appliquée (BETA,
UMR 7522 CNRS), the Association Française de Cliométrie (AFC) and
Cliometrica, Journal of Historical Economics and Econometric History
(Springer Verlag).

For the 5th Edition, we welcome proposals in all aspects of
"Cliometrics of Human Capital" covering a wide range of periods and
countries.

For each proposed paper, please send us by e-mail, as soon as possible
and before the end of the year, a short abstract of 500-1000 words.

Speakers who submit a proposal to the workshop should be able to
obtain independent financial support for their travel and conference
attendance. However, a very limited support fund exists to assist
younger colleagues who are unable to obtain funding from their own
institution or from another source. We will also offer meals to the
participants during the workshop at no cost.
