CALL FOR PAPERS IS OPEN

53rd ERSA Congress in Palermo

Dear All 

1. CALL FOR PAPERS is now OPEN to the ERSA Congress 2013 in Palermo. 

ERSA Office

Are you an ambitious young scientist, under 33 years old that wants a good platform to present ideas and results and looks forward to receive comments from the best scholars in Regional Science? Then you should submit your paper to the ERSA Epainos sessions!

The Epainos sessions are organized according to the following two principles:

•Offering more time for each presentation, in particular to increase the amount of feedback a young scientist receives on her or his paper, and to provide more opportunity for other young scientists to participate in scientific discussions.

•Assigning specialist senior discussants, experts in the specific field, to each paper that is presented. They will be asked to provide a written version of their comments, with a level of dedication that is considered normal when writing referee reports for scientific journals.

Every participant of the Young Scientist Sessions competes for the Epainos Award, which is awarded to the best paper presented. The winner will be announced during the closing ceremony. The prize-winning paper will be considered for publication in the flagship journal of the Regional Science Association International, viz. Papers in Regional Science.

Each author will receive a detailed report on their paper.  Papers that are not accepted for one of the Epainos sessions will automatically be scheduled in one of the R-sessions of the conference. There will also be a joint session for young scientists from the Urban Economics Association.

Eligibility: Each co-author should not yet have reached the age of 33 years on 1 September of the year of the conference and not have a senior faculty position (at the Assistant Professor / Lecturer level).

Important dates:

-          1^st of March: full paper submission

-          April; notification of acceptance

-          15^th of July: final paper submission

See the ERSA website for more information about criteria and former price winners.
