Call for Proposals for the 26th NBER Macro Annual Conference
April 8 and 9, 2011
Cambridge, MA
We are inviting proposals for the NBER's 26th Macro Annual
Conference, to be held on April 8 and 9, 2011 in Cambridge,
Massachusetts. As in previous years, we plan to solicit papers for
the conference. However, in keeping with our new practice, we would
also like to consider proposals from the outside and strongly
encourage submissions. In keeping with the tradition of the Macro
Annual, we invite submissions on any important topic within the field
of macroeconomics (including open economy macroeconomics and economic
growth). We are particularly interested in papers with a strong
empirical content and policy relevance. Discussions centered around
important theoretical controversies are also welcomed, though
generally papers should have a significant empirical dimension. To
get a more explicit sense of the type of paper that is appropriate,
it may be helpful to examine recent issues of the Macro Annual and
also the program for the Spring 2010 meeting on the NBER's Conference
website: http://www.nber.org/~confer/2010/Macro10/program.html
Proposals should be no more than 3 double spaced pages. "Bob Hall"
rules are in effect: we will contact only authors of accepted
proposals. However, proposals not accepted for the 2011 conference
may be considered for the future.
Those interested in applying should upload their proposals here by
July 16, 2011: http://www.nber.org/confsubmit/backend/cfp?id=Macro11.
