     The American Law and Economics Association (ALEA) will hold its
annual conference on May 15-16, 2009 in San Diego. The conference
brings together economists and law professors interested in economic
analysis of law and it will have sessions covering many areas of
economics. A list of areas is below. I’d like to encourage NBER
researchers to submit papers and participate.

     To submit a paper, go to ALEA’s website, www.amlecon.org and click on
"Annual Meeting" on the left-hand side. The deadline for submissions
is January 9, 2009. There is no submission fee, but you must join
ALEA—-to do so, go to “Membership Services” on the ALEA website.

        Best regards,
         Michelle White
