Call for Papers
25th Annual NBER Tax Policy and the Economy Conference
September 23, 2010
National Press Club, Washington, D.C.
Dear Public Economics Program Members:
I am starting to put together the program for the 2010 Tax Policy and the
Economy Program, and I am writing to see if you have any research that
might be suitable for presentation.
The meeting will be held in Washington, D.C. on Thursday, September 23,
2010. The audience is Washington policy economists -- the professional
staff at Treasury, CBO, OMB, JCT, SSA, and related institutions.
Papers should be policy relevant, either for current policy debates or for
long-standing topics of important for tax and expenditure policy. As is
always the case for NBER publications, however, the papers cannot make
policy recommendations.
First drafts of conference papers will be due in early August, and the
conference timetable is such that there is very little time for revisions
after the meeting. The Tax Policy and the Economy volume will be published
by the University of Chicago Press in early 2011. An honorarium will be
provided to the authors.
If you have a research project that might be suitable for this meeting,
please upload a copy here
http://www.nber.org/confsubmit/backend/cfp?id=TPE10 by Friday, February
12. The meeting has usually included only work by NBER authors, but if
there is a very interesting paper by a non-NBER researcher that might be
suitable for this meeting, I would appreciate your calling that to my
attention.
I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.
Jeff Brown
