SUMMARY:Conference on Crises and the Distribution
DESCRIPTION:    The financial crisis of 2007/8 was followed by  the first contraction  in the global economy since World War II: the  Great Recession. This  Recession not only lowered the average living  standard, but, most  likely, it also changed the shape of the income  distribution. These  effects are likely to differ by countries and  societal groups.  A conference on Crises and the distribution will be held in Berlin on September 29th and 30th, 2014. The conference is linked to the Ph.D. program on "Public economics and inequality," which is arranged by the Hans-Böckler Foundation in collaboration with the Free University Berlin.Submissions on the following and related topics will be considered: the distributions of living standards, inequality, poverty, and mobility before and after the 2008 Financial Crisismicro  and macro models on the (causal) relationships between  inequality and  economic development / crisis and empirical tests of such  modelspolicy lessons: the role of public policies for economic growth and inequality during the 2008 Financial Crisiscross-country comparisons, e.g. between rich and poor countries, and comparisons across different societal groups  Deadline for submission: 4th July, 2014 Notification of acceptance: 1st August, 2014 Deadline for registration: 8th August, 2014
