Submit your paper proposal for AERC 2026 today. All topics related to Austrian economics, broadly conceived, as well as social science and business disciplines such as management, strategy, and entrepreneurship are appropriate for the conference. Proposals for individual papers, complete paper sessions or symposia, and interactive workshops are encouraged. Junior faculty and PhD student submissions are especially encouraged. Papers should be well developed but at a stage where they can still benefit from the group’s discussion.
All proposals are peer reviewed by the AERC Program Committee. Abstracts should be limited to 250 words. Preference will be given to recent papers that have not been presented at major conferences. Papers not adhering to these criteria, or that have already been published, will be rejected.
This essay competition is an opportunity for students already submitting their papers to the AERC and LSC conferences to win a cash prize. Essays should be no more than 10,000 words, exclusive of references; include an abstract of no more than 250 words; and be double-spaced. The Chicago Manual of Style, 17th edition, is encouraged.
Prizes of $1,500, $1,000, and $750 will be awarded to the top three essays. All prize winners will be invited to present their papers at AERC 2026, with conference registration fees waived and accommodations covered (travel not included). Students must also submit a student scholarship application here.
The submission deadline for the general call for papers and the graduate student essay contest is January 23, 2026.
