A few thousand economists will descend upon downtown Chicago this weekend for three days of job-market interviews, research presentations, and other forms of fun at the American Economic Association’s annual meetings. The preliminary program listing is online.

I’ll be attending; please do say hello if you spot me. It was a pleasure to meet a couple of Trade Diversion readers last year in Denver.

The AEA meetings are a massive affair; if you search the program, you’ll find 17 sessions on international trade (JEL code F1) occupying a mere nine time slots. You might also catch me at sessions on F3, F4, P5, or R1. But listing all those would make this post far too long. See you in Chicago!
