The 18th CEPR European Summer Symposium in International Macroeconomics (ESSIM) will take place on 25-28 May 2010 (arrival evening of Monday 24th, departure morning of Saturday 29th). The meeting will be hosted by the Banco de España in Tarragona. The organizers will be Giancarlo Corsetti (EUI, Rome III and CEPR), James Costain (Banco de España), Per Krusell (Princeton, IIES, and CEPR) and Jaume Ventura (CREI,
Universitat Pompeu Fabra and CEPR). This call for papers invites you to submit a paper proposal for this conference in any area of macroeconomics and related fields or to express your interest in attending as a discussant.

ESSIM is an annual meeting that brings together about 60 economists from across Europe and key researchers from outside the region. It provides a unique opportunity for macroeconomists from different research institutions and countries to discuss research in a relaxed atmosphere and to develop long-term collaborative relationships. Another important aim of ESSIM is to provide young researchers with
the opportunity to meet and discuss their work with senior economists. If you wish to recommend a younger colleague who might benefit from ESSIM, please send the curriculum vitae (indicating research interests) to Anna Pietka (apietka@cepr. org).

The programme combines workshop sessions with time for collaboration and consultation. There will be plenary sessions, in which the papers with the most general appeal will be presented to all participants, and parallel meetings, usually in the afternoon, consisting of two sessions devoted to the discussion of more specialized papers. There will be special sessions for research areas of particular current interest whose subjects will be determined once submissions are available. The time during the afternoon between the plenary and the parallel sessions will be available to participants to discuss research and work together.

Funding for all participants' accommodation and meals is ensured, but only limited travel funding will be available for this conference. CEPR cannot commit to financing the travel expenses of all participants at this stage. It is therefore important for you and other participants to use any research travel funding you may have at your disposal. Please indicate on your reply form whether you will be able to cover your own travel costs or whether you will require funding from CEPR. Where CEPR does
contribute to travel costs, this will be in accordance with the Revised CEPR Travel Guidelines
www.cepr.org/meets/wkcn/misc/CEPR_Travel_Reimbursement_Policy_2008.pdf.

It may not be possible to accept all applications to attend ESSIM as demand always exceeds the space available. The number of slots is limited by room availability and for obvious budgetary reasons. We try to operate the unavoidable rationing as fairly as possible, and in so doing, we assume that those who participate take full advantage of the conference. We therefore insist that every participant stay the full
duration of the meeting.

To respond, please visit www.cepr.org/ yourprofile and indicate whether or not you wish to present a paper or would be willing to act as a discussant.

The deadline for replies is 18:00 GMT on Monday, 30 November 2009. You may also like to read our Guidelines on how to register online for CEPR Meetings at www.cepr.org/ meets/emo/ Guidelines. htm.
