*** SPECIAL ISSUE AT JEBO ***

We are pleased to announce a special issue on Discrimination and Diversity in the Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization.

The special issue has been inspired by the success of the annual Discrimination and Diversity Workshop series. In this spirit, we particularly encourage submissions that fit within one or more of these subthemes that have been featured in current/previous iterations of the workshop.

The deadline for submissions is 10 January 2024.

Please find more details of the Call for Papers here.

Outstanding Paper Awards

To promote and encourage the excellent research by junior researchers, the School of Economics and the Centre for Behavioural and Experimental Social Science at the University of East Anglia will be sponsoring two Outstanding Paper Awards worth £500 each.

The awards will be given to the two most outstanding papers presented by early-career researchers, and the recipients will be announced at the workshop.
