Dollars, Debt, and Deficits—60 Years After Bretton Woods
Call for Papers
Co-organizers: Banco de España and International Monetary Fund
June 14-15, 2004
Madrid, Spain
Conference attendance will be by invitation only.
Information about media access will be posted here at a later date.
The Banco de España and the International Monetary Fund are organizing an international research conference to mark the sixtieth anniversary of the Bretton Woods System. The conference will take place in Madrid, Spain on June 14-15, 2004. The main goal of the conference is to promote an exchange of views between leading academics, high-level officials and private sector representatives on issues related to debt, deficits, and exchange rates, three broad policy areas that are widely seen as critical for the future configuration of the international monetary system.
The organizers invite the global academic community to submit original theoretical or empirical research papers that shed light on those three broad areas. In particular, the organizers are seeking papers with a focus on either industrial or emerging market economies that address the following topics:
· links between debt and economic performance
· debt sustainability—measures and policy implications
· exchange rates and global current account imbalances
· links between debt crises and currency crises
· crises resolution strategies
· links between exchange rate regimes and economic performance
· the nexus between fiscal performance and exchange rate regimes
· regional integration and global currencies in the 21st century
A Program Committee comprised of staff from the Directorate General of International Affairs of the Banco de España and from the IMF's Research Department and the IMF's Institute will evaluate all submissions. The quality of the submission, its originality, and its policy relevance for a wide range of countries or regions and for the international monetary system, will be the main criteria the Committee will use to select the papers to be presented at the conference.
The organizers are considering compiling an unedited volume of the conference proceedings, including transcripts of the panel discussions, to permit widespread dissemination of the conference's key findings and conclusions.
The submission deadline for detailed outlines of papers is January 9, 2004. Authors of selected papers will be notified by end January, 2004. The final version of the paper should be ready by May 21, 2004. Authors of papers presented at the conference will receive an honorarium of US$ 3,000. All travel expenses will be covered by the organizers.
Submission procedures. Full drafts, or detailed outlines of papers to be prepared especially for the conference should be submitted in PDF format to the following e-mail address RESMadridConference ARROBA imf.org. The outlines should be thorough, and indicate clearly the main question(s) the paper will address and the methodology it will employ to analyze those questions, as well as cite examples from the recent literature on the subject that best resemble the type of paper envisaged by the author(s). |
