Evolution, Behavior and Organizations
Organized by:
Max Planck Institute of Economics
May 21-23, 2009, Volksbad Jena
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Introduction
EMAEE is an international conference focusing on young researchers (PhD students and post-docs). EMAEE provides a unique opportunity to discuss the latest insights and methods in applied evolutionary economics and innovation studies with top international scholars.
Evolutionary economics is a leading paradigm for research into innovation, organizations, and industrial dynamics. Beyond these fields, evolutionary economics provides a general approach to the study of emergent novelty and dynamic change in the economy. Plenary speakers at EMAEE 2009 will explore commonalities with the neighboring fields and disciplines – in particular behavioral economics, organization and management science, and historiography.
Submissions are encouraged from the full range of applications of evolutionary thinking in economics. A list of suggested topics can be found in the Call for Papers.
To enable all qualified researchers to participate, no conference fee is charged.
