Given the current circumstances with respect to the novel coronavirus and, in particular, the restrictions of the French government on large gatherings, we have decided that the prudent course of action would be to cancel the upcoming Adam Smith Workshop that was scheduled to be held on 23-24 April, 2020 at EDHEC Business School in Nice.

We are very disappointed that we will not have the opportunity to get together and discuss research at the conference, especially because we had an exceptionally strong program of papers this year. We have posted the conference program along with the selected papers, which you can access via this link.

Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused by the cancelation of the conference.
