Busan is the second largest city with the biggest port in Korea. It is beautiful and has a lot of things to do, especially in the summer. Click on these pictures to have an idea of the beauty of the city.

Submission

Economists are invited to submit papers for presentation in the conference. Papers in all economics fields, either theoretical or empirical, and whether or not directly related to the Asia-Pacific economies, are welcome. A few sessions for graduate students in doctoral programs are planned.

The deadline for submitting a paper (or an extended abstract with at least 300 words) is January 31, 2011. Please send your submission to <submit@apeaweb.org>.

Please include in your submission the following information of you and all other co-authors (if any): name, e-mail address, affiliation, academic rank (or graduate student), and mailing address.

  

Organizing a Session

Economists are also welcome to organize sessions in the conference. Each session will last for 2 hours, consisting of
