Trento Summer School in Adaptive Economic Dynamics directed by Axel Leijonhufvud UCLA and University of Trento, Professor emeritus Enrico Zaninotto University of Trento, XVIII edition: June, 5-16 2017
A major concern of the school is therefore to re-open a debate on the nature of the firm, complementing economic theory with organizational, historical and juridical perspectives; building on and promoting dialogue among research perspectives that are already interdisciplinary and have already taken steps in that direction, such as ‘new institutional economics, ‘law, economics & organization’, ‘organization and management theory’, ‘business history’, ‘evolutionary economics’, and ‘economic sociology’. The program has been designed, and the faculty constituted, so as to build on contributions highlighting different responses to some key issues, organized in four main teaching modules.
The School is intended for advanced/candidate phds, post docs and junior scholars. People interested in participating in the Summer School are encouraged to fill in the application on line http://www.unitn.it/en/apply/summerschool and are asked to submit a curriculum vitae, a twopage essay describing their interests in the area, two letters of recommendation, and statements about their current or projected research.
