Call for Papers:
The Bureau for Research and Economic
Analysis of Development (BREAD) will host its Eighth BREAD
conference on May 5 - 6, 2006. You
are invited to submit a paper for the conference. The
deadline for submissions is
February 28, 2006.
Please submit your papers via
email to
BREAD@lse.ac.uk
While all papers presented at the
conference will be selected through this open submissions
process, please note that we will have time for a very small
number of presentations. The conference lasts only 2
days, there will be no parallel sessions, and we plan to
leave ample time for discussion.
The program will be chosen by Kaushik
Basu (Cornell)
and Ted Miguel (Berkeley).
