Objective
Firstly, the seminar should serve as a bridge between IER and other Slovak and international research institutions in terms of creating networks. Secondly, it should serve as a forum to disseminate both theoretical models and empirical strategies so that IER employees can learn from a wide-range of issues and personalities. In order to practice the most dominant research and business language in the world, the language of the seminar will be English.
Topics
All the papers to be presented should be economic modeling, econometrics or other forms of empirical research and should be supplemented with policy implications. A wide range of topics can be presented, which should include the following:
• Labor market,
• Economic development
• Economic growth
• International trade
• Monetary Economics
• Public Finance / Economics
• International Finance
• Globalization
• Energy and Environment
• Operations research
• Developing Countries
• Microeconomic issues

• Regional economics
Organizational issues
The seminar will be co-chaired by Maria Siranova.
Potential speakers should send their topics and abstracts to the chairs at least three weeks earlier than the date of the seminar and their PPT presentations at least two days prior to the date of the presentation. The abstracts will be uploaded on the IER website and disseminated to a wider public via e-mail. With the permission of the author, selected and modified papers from the presentations maybe recommended for publication in the Journal of Economics of IER. However, this should be more of an exception than a rule.
