IAFFE at ASSA
January 3-5, 2009 (Saturday, Sunday, & Monday)
San Francisco, California, USA

CALL FOR PAPERS

Panel proposals and individual paper submissions are invited for the IAFFE sponsored sessions at the ASSA conference in 2009. Particular themes on which papers are sought this year include the gender effects of social and economic policy, women and children’s poverty, care in the national and international economy, and the gender analysis of migration. However, papers on any aspect of feminist inquiry into economic issues are welcome. Proposals for complete panels will also be considered.

The number of panels allocated to IAFFE for its own and joint sessions with other heterodox organizations is very limited, so preference will be given to IAFFE members. See "Join IAFFE" on the menu bar of the IAFFE website for membership information. We have no funds to support paper givers’ travel and subsistence costs (but click here for information on the IAFFE Annual 2008 Conference, June 19-21, in Torino, Italy - for which we do have such travel funds for participants from developing and transition countries)

DEADLINE

The deadline for submissions is April 18, 2008. Proposals for individual papers should include the title, the abstract, and the author's name, institutional affiliation, phone and email. Proposals for complete sessions should include the same information for each paper as well as contact detail for the session proposer. Acceptances will be announced by mid June, though ASSA will not assign the date, time and location of sessions until a few months later. Please submit your proposal to assa@iaffe.org using your last name and short paper title as both your abstract file name and in the subject line of your e-mail (Last-name – short title).
