Message from the President
Dear EACES members,
After a – hopefully – restful, longer or shorter summer break now everybody is back to work at the EACES board as well. One of the main areas of our activities at present is that of the reshuffling of the EACES journal. As I have already mentioned in my last message, a small committee was appointed by the EACES board (the members of the committee are David Kemme, Jürgen Jerger, Marcello Signorelli and Magdolna Sass) at the last board meeting in June 2017 in St. Petersburg. This committee is already working on the reorganisation and restructuring of the association’s journal, the European Journal of Comparative Economics. The main aim would be to make it more attractive for authors who are producing high quality articles. Ideas, comments and suggestions concerning the possible ways for the reshuffling of the journal are welcome from the members of the association. Please, email them to David Kemme (dmkemme@memphis.edu). We are planning a meeting with the present editors of the journal inthe near future in order to proceed further and find solutions acceptable to everyone.
There has also been considerable progress in organising the next biennial EACES conference. It will take place in the first week of September 2018 and the host will be the Warsaw School of Economics. Thanks to the efforts of the organising committee, and mainly of Hartmut Lehmann, we are on good track now and we are sure that this 15th, jubilarian conference will be a real success.
EACES is happy to support other events as well, we can provide some financial support to conferences, workshops etc. We hope to receive many requests in this area in the remaining few months of 2017 and in the coming year.
Last but not least, another technical item on the EACES agenda is that of the renewal of the website. We are working on it, and the renewed and redesigned website of the association with many new features will be ready and working before the end of the year.
Magdolna Sass
EACES President

Editorial:
This 82ndissue of the EACES newsletter
begins with presidential message that presents the progress in reshuffling of
the association’s journal: the
European Journal of Comparative Economics. A small committee appointed by the EACES
board at the last board meeting in June 2017 in St. Petersburg is working on
the reorganisation and restructuring of the journal. The major objective of
this restructuring would be to make it more attractive for authors who are
producing high quality articles. EACES board is planning a meeting with the
present editors of the journal in the near future in order to proceed further
and find solutions acceptable to everyone.
Preparation for the Crystal Jubilee (15th) biennial conference of EACES is under way to be held in Warsaw School of Economics during the first week of September 2018. The local organising committee is already on board. In addition to the regular biennial conferences, interest is grooming in organising several events promoting the study and research on economic transition and transformation. As the association has been developing as a thriving and vibrant forum, the improvement in its website has become a part and parcel of the changing need of the association.
A conference on the changing role of the state in the economy is going to be held in the School of Economics, Corvinus University of Budapest on 18th February 2018. The conference will be a significant event as it will honour the ninetieth birthday of Janos Kornai on one hand and the thematic discussion of his research on the changing role of the state will be the major agenda of discussion in the conference on the other. Section 2 of this newsletter presents the call for papers in a wide range of disciplines in this regard: soft budget constraints, “island of shortage” within surplus economies, transition, economic institutions, economic development, capitalist and socialist systems, varieties of capitalism, continuing the anti-equilibrium, China’a economic and political systems, economic and political centralizations, trust, and innovation.
Section 3 presents the reminder regarding the forthcoming conference. This section specifically provides information on 10th FIW Research Conference on International Economics to be held at Vienna University of Business and Economics (WU) in 9th and 10th November 2017. The main objective of the conference is to work as a forum of institutional economists, promote the research of young scholars, PhD researchers, and post-graduate students. More specifically, the conference will promote the collaboration of the institutional economists in Austria and the neighbouring countries. Moreover, the conference also associates the best Conference Paper Award 2017 and Young Economists Award 2017.
Section 4 provides information regarding recent publications some journals associated with comparative economic studies, more specifically that of Economic Systems, Post-communist Economies, Comparative Economic Studies, European Journal of Development Research, Economic Annals, and Croatian Economic Survey.
We welcome any comment/suggestion for the improvement of the newsletter. The submissions are requested to deliver in the form of (preferably) electronic copy or hard copy of the Microsoft Word file to the editor:
