Welcome to the Third Annual International Workshop on Economic Analysis of Institutions at Xiamen University, May 16-17, 2015. We have selected high quality submissions of research that adopt the economic approach in analyzing the role of institutions in economic, political, and social development. Institutions are broadly defined here to include both formal arrangements such as the legal system, the government, and their respective rules, as well as informal behavioral patterns including customs and other cultural values. Research topics covered in the workshop will include law and economics, public policy, political economy, institutions and economic growth, economic history, and behavioral economics.
It is our honor to have the following distinguished keynote speakers this year:
Benito Arruñada (Universitat Pompeu Fabra)
Richard Boylan (Rice University)
Gary Libecap (University of California, Santa Barbara)
Debin Ma (London School of Economics and Political Science)
David Mitchell Reeb (National University of Singapore)
The annual International Workshop on Economic Analysis of Institutions is part of the effort by WISE and SOE at Xiamen University to establish a leading research center in the economic analysis of institutions in Asia Pacific. And we look forward to your participation in the workshop and continued collaboration with us in the future.
Enjoy the workshop and have a great time in Xiamen!
