Dear Sir/ Madam,
On behalf of Prof. Justin Yifu Lin, we are sending you the call for paper of the International Conference on New Structural Economics which will be hold on December 14-15, 2015 at Peking University. The conference theme of this year is “Rising Wages in Developing Countries: Implications for Economic Transformation”.
We would like to invite you to submit paper on the following topics:
Ø What trends can be seen in wages in developing countries since the new millennium? How much is there a common pattern across different regions?
Ø What factors are driving the increases in wages seen? Above all, do they stem from increased production and productivity, from changing demography, or from urbanization and industrialization? To what extent do they reflect public policy such as minimum wages and public employment schemes? What may be expected in terms of trends in wages in developing countries over the next five to ten years?
Ø If wages in some developing countries such as China and India are rising, then is it likely that some plants in these countries will relocate to low-income countries in Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, and other parts of the developing world? What are the implications for industrial upgrading, structural change, and economic transformation in catching-up processes of developing countries? What kinds of policy recommendations can be offered to help low-wage developing countries to seize this opportunity in order to achieve economic transformation?
Authors are invited to submit abstracts via email (nseconference@nsd.pku.edu.cn) by June 19, 2015. The deadline for submitting full papers is September 25, 2015. Submissions must be original and should not have been published previously or be under consideration for publication while being evaluated for this conference.
Confirmed keynote speakers include –
Ø Professor Kaivan Munshi, University of Cambridge, Co-editor of Journal of Development Economics;
Ø Professor Belton Fleisher, Ohio State University, Chief Editor of China Economic Review;
Ø Professor Yi Wen, Tsinghua University and Federal Reserve Bank, Co-editor of China Economic Review;
Ø Professor Judith C. Clifton, University of Cantabria, Editor-in-Chief, Journal of Economic Policy Reform.
The organizer will explore publishing selected conference papers as a special issue in a peer-reviewed journal.
An economic class air travel (or second class train for local participants) and accommodation will be covered by the organizer.
Best,
Irene
