CALL FOR PAPERS | 53rd ERSA Congress in Palermo
CALL FOR PAPERS IS OPEN
53rd ERSA Congress in Palermo
Dear All
- CALL FOR PAPERS is now OPEN to the ERSA Congress 2013 in Palermo.
ERSA Office
SUBMIT A PAPER TO THE YOUNG SCIENTISTS SESSIONS AT THE ERSA2013 CONFERENCE!
Are you an ambitious young scientist, under 33 years old that wants a good platform to present ideas and results and looks forward to receive comments from the best scholars in Regional Science? Then you should submit your paper to the ERSA Epainos sessions!
The Epainos sessions are organized according to the following two principles:
•Offering more time for each presentation, in particular to increase the amount of feedback a young scientist receives on her or his paper, and to provide more opportunity for other young scientists to participate in scientific discussions.
•Assigning specialist senior discussants, experts in the specific field, to each paper that is presented. They will be asked to provide a written version of their comments, with a level of dedication that is considered normal when writing referee reports for scientific journals.
Every participant of the Young Scientist Sessions competes for the Epainos Award, which is awarded to the best paper presented. The winner will be announced during the closing ceremony. The prize-winning paper will be considered for publication in the flagship journal of the Regional Science Association International, viz. Papers in Regional Science.
Each author will receive a detailed report on their paper. Papers that are not accepted for one of the Epainos sessions will automatically be scheduled in one of the R-sessions of the conference. There will also be a joint session for young scientists from the Urban Economics Association.
Eligibility: Each co-author should not yet have reached the age of 33 years on 1 September of the year of the conference and not have a senior faculty position (at the Assistant Professor / Lecturer level).
Important dates:
- 1st of March: full paper submission
- April; notification of acceptance
- 15th of July: final paper submission
See the ERSA website for more information about criteria and former price winners.

III Congreso Internacional de Desarrollo Desarrollo Local en la Habana - del 6 al 9 de noviembre de 2013 - La Habana (CUBA)
En el momento actual, la pobreza, el desempleo, el deterioro del medio ambiente y la desconfianza en las doctrinas políticas, han profundizado las situaciones de crisis, amenazando diversos logros de seguridad alimentaria, salud o educación. En este contexto, los ciudadanos observan los ámbitos locales como lugares donde satisfacer sus necesidades. Pero, muchos de los sistemas productivos locales no están preparados para afrontar este reto, y solo algunos lo han superado con éxito.
Por tal motivo lo estamos invitando a participar en el III Congreso Internacional de Desarrollo Local que tendrá lugar del 6 al 9 de noviembre de 2013 en el Palacio de Convenciones de La Habana, Cuba, orientado al intercambio de experiencias entre especialistas y gestores en esta temática con abordajes innovadores y multidisciplinarios, donde las experiencias exitosas cobran especial importancia y justifican el lema del congreso “Por un desarrollo local sostenible”.
Desde este marco, el III Congreso Internacional de Desarrollo Local busca abrir un espacio de discusión y análisis en torno a los modelos, estrategias y finalidades del desarrollo local, a la vez que promover el debate sobre el lugar que ocupa la dimensión local en la dinámica global y sobre las posibilidades reales de gestionar procesos de desarrollo con base territorial.
Teniendo como antecedentes el I Congreso Internacional para el entrenamiento del desarrollo local, celebrado en la ciudad de Machala, provincia de El Oro, Ecuador en el año 2007; el II Congreso Internacional de Desarrollo Local y las primeras. Jornadas Nacionales en Ciencias Sociales y Desarrollo Rural, celebradas en la ciudad de Matanza, provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina, en 2010, será un placer tenerlo con nosotros durante el III Congreso a desarrollarse en La Habana, Cuba.
