RE: Summer Institute 2004 Call for Papers

This summer the NBER will be holding a Public Policy and the Environment
Workshop within the Public Economics segment of its Summer Institute. We
are writing to invite you to the workshop, which will be held on Monday and
Tuesday, August 2 and 3, 2004, in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

We plan to assemble a set of empirical and theoretical papers on diverse
topics in environmental economics. While we expect that several of the
papers will overlap with the field of public economics, we would welcome
papers that invoke concepts or tools from other disciplines including labor
economics, industrial organization, law and economics, international
economics, and development economics. If you have paper that you would
like to present, please send it or an abstract to the following address by
MARCH 19, 2004.
