Dear AFEE Colleague:
Let me first thank everyone who contributed to the successful meetings in Chicago including the presenters, chairs, discussants, and session organizers – and all who attended the sessions.

And I thank our Veblen-Commons Award winner Geoff Hodgson and our Street Scholar Luiz Carlos Bresser Pereira for their fine presentations in Chicago. I am very grateful to our Secretary Eric Hake and to our Treasurer Dave Zalewski for their support of AFEE as an organization, not least in bringing me up to speed on my duties. And I thank my assistant here at the University of Texas, Felicia Johnson, for her work on the Chicago program.

Call for Papers & Sessions
Annual Meeting, AFEE at ASSA San Diego, 4-6 January 2013
Financial Crises, Debt Crises and Deep Recessions Institutions, Policies & Strategies for Sustainable & Equitable Recovery
AFEE invites proposals for individual papers and complete sessions on this theme, for consideration at the AFEE at ASSA meetings. Many nations, especially in Europe, are still in protracted economic and financial crises and recession, while some, such as the US, have managed very tentative recovery. Some nations, such as China and India, managed to escape the full brunt of the crisis and recession: Why? The causes and symptoms of the crisis are still being investigated. Some policies have had some beneficial impact, while policy makers and scholars continue to debate the best course of action. What about the next bubble and crash? How can such instability and uncertainty be prevented? What speculative sectors will likely be involved in the next financial crisis and recession?
