SA Journal of Economics Special Issue.
ESSA and the South African
Journal of Economics (SAJE) would like to dedicate space within the SAJE to
the conference, with the goal of opening-up debate on one or more topics
relevant to Southern Africa. Therefore, to encourage debate, we are seeking
papers from full session proposals, rather than from individuals. Considering the goal of increasing
debate within the journal, it is expected that there is a central and very
focused theme. For examples, see the AER's conference issue (May). We are
asking that papers not exceed 3000 words, and we would like to receive all
papers from the session.
