The objective of this conference is to encourage and disseminate new research on tournaments, contests and relative performance evaluation, and to foster interaction between theorists and applied researchers in this area. Submissions of research papers on the specific topic of tournaments and contests are solicited to be presented at this conference. The submission deadline is December 1, 2007. Registration is open, in that presentation of a paper is not a prerequisite. If you would like to organize a session, please contact Theofanis Tsoulouhas at fanis_tsoulouhas@ncsu.edu.
The keynote speaker is Edward Lazear, Stanford Graduate School of Business, and Chair, Council of Economic Advisors.
Select papers will be considered for publication in a special issue of the Journal of Economics and Management Strategy (JEMS), upon author approval to be considered and subject to the standard JEMS review process.
In addition to submitting a paper and registering for the conference, make sure you also join the Tournament Theory web directory and the email list which can be found at TournamentTheory.org
We look forward to seeing you in Raleigh.
Charles Knoeber, Theofanis Tsoulouhas and Tomislav Vukina
