Call for Papers
The
Second CESifo Economics Studies Conference will be held on 7 - 8 November
2003 in Munich. The subject of the conference is "Migration and the Welfare
State". The Conference will focus on the interrelations between migration
and the various ingredients of the welfare state (old age security, VI,
public education, income maintenance programs, etc.).
Keynote lectures will be given by Robert Holzmann from The World Bank
and Hans-Werner Sinn from CESifo.
People
interested in presenting papers at the conference should submit an abstract
or preferably a first draft electronically no later than 1 July 2003
to economic.studies@cesifo.de
Selected papers will be published after a due refereeing process in CESifo
Economics Studies.
CESifo will provide accommodation and will reimburse economy travel costs
for all participants with accepted papers or other active roles in the
conference. Other CESifo network members are invited to participate, but
are expected to provide their own funding for travel and accommodation.

the conference should be addressed to the conference organizers:
Gerhard Illing: gerhard.illing@lrz.uni-meunchen.de

About CESifo Economics Studies:
With the Increasing specialization in the Profession, there is an urgent
need for building bridges between different areas in economics. The economic
research papers published in academic journals are becoming increasingly
less accessible to those not working in the same field. CESifo Economic
Studies aims to bridge the gap between specialized research in economics
and the interest of non-specialists. The journal combines theory and empirical
research with a strong emphasis on policy issues. CESifo Economic Studies
publishes contributed papers by top level academic economists which are
written in a style accessible to all economists regardless of their specialization.
The primary focus of the journal is on policy problems, but it also publishes
highly quality, non-technical articles which are of general interest to
economists.
CESifo Economic Studies continues and replaces Ifo Studies, the academic
journal of the lfo institute. Starting this year we will publish only
in English, aiming at a much wider readership. CESifo Economic Studies
is published quarterly.
All articles appearing in the journal are thoroughly refereed. The journal
is circulated to a wide audience including governments, business, and
policy-makers as well as academics and students. Subscribers to Ifo Studien
will automatically receive CESifo Economic Studies. For further information see the journal's webpage http://www.cesifo.de/EconomicStudies.
