X Workshop on "Institutions, Individual Behavior and Economic Outcomes"

   On behalf of the organizers it is a pleasure to announce the three-day workshop on “Institutions, Individual Behavior and Economic Outcomes" taking place in Corte (Corsica, France) on 6th-8th June 2019, organised by the University of Corsica with the contribution of CRENoS (University of Sassari and University of Cagliari) and the University of Bordeaux (GREThA CNRS UMR 5115).

The scope of the event is to give participants the opportunity to present their work in progress to an audience of interested peers and get valuable feedback for improving their ongoing research. Both the format and the location of the workshop have been chosen to provide an ideal setting for promoting knowledge sharing and social interactions conducive to collaborative research networks. This year the event will propose two sessions according to the following schedule:

- Economics of dispute resolution (6th-7th June)

This session will bring together researchers working in the broad field of litigations and disputes about patents, copyrights, business contracts and so on, from an empirical legal studies perspective. The purpose of the session is to provide a platform for cutting-edge research that would enrich, refine, and challenge our understanding of justice, courts' functioning and litigation process.

Organizers: Claudio Detotto - University of Corsica Valerio Sterzi - University of Bordeaux Marco Vannini - University of Sassari

Keynote speaker Michael J. Meurer (Boston University)

- Urban and regional economics and policy (7th-8th June)

The goal of this session is to explore the complexities of urban and regional economics. Papers covering different topics on urban and regional economics from a theoretical, empirical and/or policy-oriented perspectives are welcome. The workshop is open to contributions on social, cultural, economic, environmental and sustainability including topics such as quality of life, happiness and life satisfaction. The organisers invite academic researchers, scholars and policy makers to contribute to scientific, technical and/or managerial papers that explore this topic in both developing and developed economies, islands, cities, metropolitan areas, towns and villages. Both theoretical and empirical papers are welcomed.
