14th SCEME Seminar Call for papers

14th SCEME Seminar
8-9 June 2011 | Aberystwyth University, UK The Stirling Centre for Economic Methodology (SCEME) in association with the School of Management and Business Aberystwyth University would like to announce a call for participants to the fourteenth seminar in a series on the methodology of economics. We are very pleased to be able to announce that Victoriah Chick, emeritus Professor at UCL, will attend as guest speaker to lead the discussion.
Topic
The banking and economic crises have focused attention on economics and its capacity to forecast, analyse and present policy solutions. Radical questions have been raised in public discourse about the way in which economics approaches its subject matter, i.e. its methodology. The purpose of this seminar is to reflect on the future methodology of economics as well as the role of methodological analysis itself, in light of the banking and economic crisis.
Organisation
The two-half-day seminar (lunchtime-to-lunchtime) will take place in a small informal setting with a workshop character at Aberystwyth University on 8-9 June 2011.
The seminar programme and registration form are now available at http://www.management.stir.ac.uk/research/economics/sceme-workshops
