The Association for Social Economics organizes a session at the Midwest Economics Association Annual Meeting in Chicago, Illinois, on March 21-23, 2014 The deadline for submission is October 2, 2013.

Social economic approaches to the analysis and understanding of economic phenomena have a long and rich history. The mission of the Association for Social Economics (ASE) is, "to advance scholarly research and writing about the great questions of economics, human dignity, ethics, and philosophy."
What contributions are social economists making toward advancing this mission today? This session seeks to introduce economists to the breadth of research being undertaken under the banner of social economics. Social economists from all fields of economic inquiry are invited to share their research and pedagogical innovations. The focus will be on identifying those aspects of research and teaching that represent the contemporary methods, values and commitments of social economics.
