Welcome

The 2008 Australasian Meeting of the Econometric Society will be hosted by the New Zealand Association of Economists at the Wellington Convention Centre, Wellington, New Zealand, 9 to 11 July, 2008. The programme will consist of invited and contributed papers.

Papers are invited across a range of both theoretical and applied areas of econometrics, microeconomics and macroeconomics.

I extend a very warm welcome to you on behalf of the International Advisory Board for this event. We hope you will plan to participate in what will be one of the most significant events on the economics calendar for 2008.

In addition to the full range of ESAM addresses and contributed sessions, ESAM08 will have an added feature recognising that 2008 will be the 50th anniversary of the publication of a paper in Economica by New Zealander Bill Phillips. That paper was the source of what all economists came to refer to as the Phillips curve.

We would like to acknowledge the generous support of our sponsors for this important meeting. 

This website will carry all the information you need for submitting a paper, registering and planning your trip to an outstanding event, to hear world class speakers and visit New Zealand's exciting capital city.
