Subject: NBER Chinese Economy Working Group, Cambridge, MA,
September 30-October 1, 2011
Date: January 18, 2011
The National Bureau of Economic Research workshop on the Chinese
Economy is a forum to discuss new academic research related to the
Chinese economy. The next meeting will be held in Cambridge,
Massachusetts, on Friday and Saturday, September 30 and October 1, 2011.
We welcome new and interesting research, and are happy to see papers
from a variety of fields. Participants in the past meetings included
both China specialists and members from various NBER programs, such
as Corporate Finance, Public Economics, Labor, Asset Pricing,
International Trade and Investment, and International Finance and
Macroeconomics. The last year's program can be viewed at:

The conference does not publish proceedings or issue NBER Working
Papers - most of the presented papers are presumed to be published
later in journals.
If you are interested in presenting a paper this year, please upload
a pdf file using the following website, no later than May 31, 2011:

Preference will be given to empirically oriented papers or applied
theory papers with clear empirical implications for which at least a
preliminary draft is ready by the time of submission. Only authors of
accepted papers will be contacted.
For presenters and discussants and other members of the China working
group based in North America, the NBER will cover the travel and
hotel costs. For speakers from outside North America, while the NBER
will not be able to cover the airfare, it can provide up to three
nights of hotel.
We look forward to hearing from you.
