I’m serving as guest editor for a forthcoming issue of the Journal of New Finance. Here’s the call for papers.
………..
We invite you to submit proposals for original papers to be published in a special issue of the Journal of New Finance. Each accepted paper will be awarded an honorarium of $600, and the authors are expected to participate in an online workshop on the papers.
The subtitle of this special issue – which indicates its focus – is “Tariffs, Capital Allocation, and Global Fragmentation.” Over the past ten or so years, the multilateral rules-based global trading system that reigned from the end of WWII until the early 21st century has come under severe attack. Why is economic nationalism now ascendant? What sorts of protectionism and industrial policies are playing out? What are the likely economic and political consequences of this fragmentation of global trade and finance? Is it desirable to reverse this fragmentation and, if so, what are plausible means of doing so?
If you have ideas for original research into this timely issue, please submit by July 1st an abstract of 500 to 600 words.
* Extended abstract submission deadline: July 1st
* Notification of abstract acceptance: July 15th
* Full paper submission deadline: October 15th
* Expected publication date: January 2027
