SEVENTH INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON INSTITUTIONAL ECONOMICS

"INSTITUTIONS AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT"

Organised by the Centre for Research in Institutional Economics,
University of Hertfordshire, UK.

Speakers: Ha-Joon Chang (University of Cambridge), Barbara Harriss-White (University of Oxford), Geoffrey Hodgson (University of Hertfordshire), Ugo Pagano (University of Siena), Eric Reinert (Tallin University of Technology), and Allan Schmid (Michigan State University.

22-24 June 2005

This residential workshop will be held at the Conference Centre on the new De Havilland campus of the University of Hertfordshire, in Hatfield, England.

This workshop is designed to provide in-depth discussion of cutting-edge issues in institutional economics, in a forum that permits the attention to detail and definition that is often lacking in larger, conference-style events. The expected maximum number of participants is 50. Please book early to avoid disappointment.

The De Havilland Campus of the University of Hertfordshire is about one mile from Hatfield railway station. There are regular trains from Hatfield to London Kings Cross, taking about 20 minutes. There is easy access to all London airports.
