Submission

 

The deadline for submitting a paper (or an extended abstract with at least 300 words) is January 15, 2019. There is no submission fee, but to help better manage the list of participants, a payment of part of the registration fee, US$100 (or US$50 for graduate students) per paper, is required. This fee will be deducted from the regular registration fee of US$320 (or US$160 for graduate students), which is the same as last year’s. Alternatively, the fee will be fully refunded under any of the following situations: (a) if the paper is rejected for presentation; or (b) if the paper is accepted for presentation but you decide later that you will not come and notify us by June 1, 2019. (If such notification is received after June 1, 2019 but before July 1, 2019, then only 60 percent of the fee paid for this conference will be refunded. After July 1, 2019, no refund of the submission fee will be issued.)

 

There are two ways to send us your submission. (i) For online submission, please click here. After the payment, you will be directed to a page with more submission information. (ii) Alternatively, you can send your submission to <submit@apeaweb.org> before paying the fee required for submission. You will be given more time to pay the fee.

 

In your submission, please include the following information of you and each of the co-authors (if any): name, e-mail address, affiliation, academic rank (or graduate student), and mailing address. Please also include the JEL codes of your paper. Please note that submission of more than one paper by the same author is highly discouraged, unless different papers will be presented by different co-authors. In the latter case, please specify the presenter of each of the papers submitted.


Economists are also encouraged to organize sessions in the conference. Each session will last for 2 hours, consisting of four papers (three or five papers are possible, to be presented by different authors), one chair (not necessarily the session organizer but preferably not one of the presenters or discussants), and the corresponding discussants, if any. Please submit by February 15, 2019 a proposal for one or two sessions to <submit@apeaweb.org>. The proposal should provide an explanation of the theme and all papers to be presented (a draft or an extended abstract of the paper), including the e-mail and mailing addresses, affiliations, academic ranks, and phone and fax numbers of the organizer, session chair, presenters, and discussants. All presenters will have to pay the registration fee (US$320, or US$160 for graduate students) per paper later. The organizer of each session is responsible for reminding the authors of the payment of the registration fees.

Registration

All participants have to register. The registration fee is US$320 for regular participants or US$160 for students.
