1. MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear
EACES members,
The organisation of the next gathering of
the members of EACES is proceeding well: the number of submissions for the
Warsaw conference has exceeded 140, including organised panels; and the Warsaw
School of Economics in cooperation with the EACES organising committee are on
their way to put together a very interesting conference programme. The keynote
speakers of the Warsaw conference will include Professor Stanisław Gomułka, for
many years Reader of Economics at the London School of Economics, one of the
most accomplished consultants to various Polish post-communist governments, and
leading the effort to design a coherent reform policy after the collapse of
communism. Our other keynote speaker will be Professor Domenico Mario Nuti, at
present professor emeritus at the University of Rome “La Sapienza”. He was
advisor to various international organizations and governments in the East
Central and Eastern European region and is the author of numerous publications
on comparative economic systems. We will also have the usual Meet the Editors
session, where representatives of journals in the comparative economics area
will provide the audience with valuable advice and insights into publishing
research results. The local organisers will include in the programme some
organised tours, where conference attendees can discover the city of Warsaw.
All potential participants with accepted abstracts should register on the website
of the conference (www.eacesconference.eu).
I very much hope to see many EACES members
in Warsaw in September.
Magdolna Sass
EACES President
2. EACES 15th BIENNIAL
CONFERENCE
The 15th Biannual Conference of EACES will
be held in Warsaw, Poland, on 6-8 September 2018, hosted by the Department of
International Comparative Studies and Department of Economics I, affiliated to
Collegium of Economic Analysis at Warsaw School of Economics (Szkoła Główna
Handlowa, SGH). To guide prospective authors and participants, the conference
theme is:
The
impact of the Financial Crisis and Great Recession on post-transition and
emerging economies has varied tremendously. Some economies experienced very
large recessionary shocks with long-lasting effects for the labor market, human
capital formation and growth. For others policy and economic structure
alleviated potential negative effects. Importantly for some countries, the
Great Recession also slowed or postponed systemic reform efforts. Understanding
the differential impact and means of diffusing the negative consequences is
important for scholars and policy makers. Hence, it strikes us as important to
take stock of the performance and policy reactions of post-transition and
emerging economies, broadly defined, nearly ten years after the Great
Recession. Additionally, challenges to globalization and the environment remain
while new challenges to international economic and security institutions arise.
A comparative perspective is essential to understand how workers, firms and
governments adjusted to the economic shocks that occurred, challenges that
remain and new challenges that lie ahead. A systemic approach provides
essential perspective as individual economies had made varying degrees of
progress in the transition process and will be differentially affected by
challenges on the horizon.
The deadline for sending ha the abstracts has passed on April
25th, 2018. The next phase is registration, which will be available in
the early July 2018. The online registration is
required for all participants, whose abstracts have been accepted to the
conference.
Confirmed
plenary speakers include Professor Stanisław Gomułka and Professor Domenico
Mario Nuti. Professor Stanisław Gomułka was for many years Reader of Economics
at the London School of Economics, one of the most accomplished consultants to
various Polish post-Communist governments, and leading the effort to design a
coherent reform policy after the collapse of Communism. Professor Domenico
Mario Nuti is among the leading researchers of comparative economics, at
present professor emeritus at the University of Rome “La Sapienza”. He was
advisor to various international organizations and governments in the East
Central and Eastern European region and is the author of numerous publications
on comparative economic systems.
The
conference will host a “Meet the editors” session, where representatives of
journals dealing with comparative economics issues will be present, including
the journal of the association: European Journal of Comparative Economics.
The
European Association for Comparative Economic Studies (EACES) was founded in
1990. The principal focus of the association was and remains the comparative
study of real economic systems, including the economies of East and West, North
and South, as well as the economic interactions among systems and among
regional areas, such as the EU. The Association is a broadly based organization
in which all schools of economic thought can exchange views and ideas on
current and prospective research.
The
Department of Comparative Studies at the Warsaw School of Economics was
established in 1992 by Professor Leszek Balcerowicz, former Deputy Prime
Minister and Finance Minister in the first two democratic governments in Poland
and subsequently in 1997-2000, widely credited with the economic transformation
of Poland. The Department integrates didactic and scientific activities in the
field of international comparative studies, which encompasses macro- and
microeconomic perspective. The department is headed by Professor Piotr
Ciżkowicz.
The
Department of Economics I conducts research in the field of economics, taking a
broad perspective. The research interests of the team at the Department of
Economics I focus on the problems of labor economics, pension economics, health
economics, education economics, social insurance and the problems of economic
regulation. These areas largely refer to modern economic and social policy. The
Department of Economics I is chaired by Professor Marek Góra, the co-author of
the Polish pension reform from 1999, which made Poland one of a small number of
countries which are believed to have successfully coped with the economic
consequences of aging.
The
Warsaw School of Economics (SGH) is the oldest economic-oriented university in
Poland.

Notification of
Acceptance: May 31, 2018
Event Manager: Alina Thiele
Spurred by sharp
declines in unionization rates and growing wage inequality over the last years,
there has been growing (public) interest in the effects of non-union employee
representation (such as works councils, board-level codetermination, joint
consultation committees, or authorized health and safety committees) on the
performance of firms, outcomes for workers, and the economy as a whole. Despite
this interest, empirical research on the effect of employee representation has
been scarce and mostly limited to the case of Germany to date.
The aim of this
conference is to bring together researchers analyzing (the effects of
different) forms of non-union representation, and to put their findings into
international comparative perspective. Possible topics might cover:
- the effects of employee representation on productivity
- the effects of employee representation on employee outcomes
- challenges for employee representation due to globalization/technological
change
- the effect of non-union representation on inequality and gender
discrimination
- (reasons for) international differences in the incidence of employee
representation
