Subject: NBER Chinese Economy Meeting, Cambridge, MA, April 25-26, 2014

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, April 25-26, 2014.

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: http://conference.nber.org/confer/2013/CEf13/program.html

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 by January 30, 2014, using the following website:

http://papers.nber.org/confsubmit/backend/cfp?id=CEs14

If you know of a good paper by someone else, please feel free to
forward this call to the author.

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.

The fall meeting of the China working group will be held on September
26-27, 2014. A call for papers will be sent out in late spring with a
likely submission deadline of May 10, 2014.

We look forward to hearing from you.
