2017 Annual Conference


26th IAFFE Annual Conference

Gender Inequalties in a Multipolar World
June 29 - July 1, 2017 | Sungshin University | Seoul, Korea


Call for Papers

The 2017 IAFFE conference theme, “Gender Inequalities in a Multipolar World,” is an attempt to focus our attention on how feminist economics can be useful to educators, feminist organizations and policymakers in a world where there are multiple power centers in both economic and political terms. This situation leads to many topics that feminist economists could effectively and singularly address, including expansion of the care economy and social welfare in emerging economies, transitions from austerity to growth-promoting policies (or the reverse) and the effects of such transitions on different demographic groups, increased marketization of formerly nonmarket activities, sex trafficking both within and between nations, and the economic effects of war and political instability on civil societies. There will be a stream of inquiry throughout the conference specific to the East Asian context, given the conference’s location. In addition, panel proposals and individual paper submissions are invited on any aspect of feminist inquiry into economic issues. Interdisciplinary approaches are welcome.

Submissions: Abstracts must be submitted online via the IAFFE website (www.iaffe.org) beginning in January 2017.  Submissions can be made for roundtables, panels or individual papers. Participants are limited to one paper presentation and one roundtable or appearance on a panel. Additional co-authored papers are allowed only if they are presented by the co-author. These limitations will allow maximum participation by all members wishing to participate.  Please see the IAFFE website, www.iaffe.org, for detailed submission guidelines.

Deadline for Submission:  The deadline for submissions is April 4, 2017.  Notification of acceptance will begin on March 15, 2017.
