The Stirling Centre for Economic Methodology (SCEME) would like to invite proposals for contributions to the twelfth seminar in a series on the methodology of economics. Seminar contributions are welcome from any perspective shedding light on culture and economic performance, what these terms and the relationship between them might mean, and how we might go about analysing them. We encourage submissions of papers, which, if accepted, will be included in the SCEME Working Paper series, but will equally consider other contributions such as presentation of work-in-progress, or an extended discussion of a recent monograph bearing on the topic.
Proposals should take the form of a one-page outline of the intended contribution, and should be sent, preferably by e-mail, BY THURSDAY 15th JANUARY 2009, to Sheila Dow, Department of Economics, University of Stirling, Stirling FK9 4LA, UK e-mail: s.c.dow@stir.ac.uk.
