journal of the network, the Review of Economic Development,
Public Policy and Law.
The event will follow the

Economics) Conference that brings together economists, legal
scholars, political scientists, sociologists, and researchers
and students from a variety of areas in applied social
sciences field. This year, keynote speakers are Professor
Avinash Dixit of Princeton University, President-elect of the
American Economic Association, and Professor Ariel Rubinstein

The timing and location of the
T&D Conference, immediately following the ISNIE
Conference, is meant to facilitate attendance by researchers
from a variety of countries. Most of the network affiliates
have plans to attend both conferences. To this end, our
organization has been relied on the help of Professor Thrainn
Eggertsson, President-elect of ISNIE, Professor Lee Alston,

Shirley, president of the Ronald Coase Institute, the
organization that sponsors the Institutional Analysis Workshop
that precedes the ISNIE Conference. You can find updated
