I am editing (along with Jean Kimmel) a special volume for the journal:
"Public Finance and Management" (PFM) on "The Family in Public Finance".
The special issue would consist of 5-6 papers and should preferably to
be submitted in full by October. The topics will involve family and
public finance, including the marriage tax penalty, child care provision
and family leave policies, as well as any other topics involving the
government and the family. If you are aware of any economists
(including doctoral students), who might be interested in submitting an
abstract (and, practically right after a paper) on any of these topics.

I am including below some additional information on the journal, in case
it comes in handy when presenting the information to others.

Thank you very much in advance for your help. I very much appreciate
it!

Sincerely,
Caty
