Welcome to HETSA 2008

The HETSA 2008 Conference 2008: "The Study of the History of Economics: What does the Future Hold?" is the 21st Conference of the History of Economic Thought Society of Australia, to be held on the 9-11 July, 2008 sponsored by the University of Western Sydney (UWS), Parramatta.

Our International Guest Speaker is Robert Leonard. Rob is Head of Department. and Professor of Economics at Université du Québec Montréal (UQAM) Montreal, Canada. He is probably best known for "From Parlor Games to Social Science: Von Neumann, Morgenstern, and the Creation of Game Theory, 1928-1994," Journal of Economic Literature, 1995.

The formal Deadline for Abstracts is 25 April 2008 and Deadline for Papers: 30 May 2008. But we are flexible and other papers may be accepted after this date if space on the program is available. Tony Aspromourgos is organizing a special ‘SYMPOSIUM ON THE STATUS OF HET IN THE CONTEXT OF "RESEARCH ASSESSMENT"'. We are also planning to incorporate a sampling of the rich indigenous and colonial history of Parramatta for conference delegates.
