QQE 2011 - Annual International Conference on. Qualitative and Quantitative Economics Research. QQE 2011

In the past, economics is primarily focused on numbers and statistics. However, with the introduction of qualitative and quantitative economics research, economics has evolved from the neo-classical theories and instead can now be easily understood and meaningfully presented with the analytical forecasts of the numbers and statistics that are produced. Qualitative economics refers to a direction of change in some economic variable as related to change of some other economic variable. On the other hand, quantitative economics uses a range of complex mathematical and statistical procedures to analyze economic phenomena. These techniques help economic analysts explain economic issues and understand human actions, group interactions and communities.

The QQE conference is dedicated in providing researchers, academicians and students with a thorough understanding of the core techniques of quantitative and qualitative economics as well as their strengths and limitations. We also welcome participants to include their understanding of the qualitative and quantitative application to test economic theories and measure magnitudes relevant for economic policy and other decisions.

SUBMIT EXTENDED ABSTRACTS

An EA is an 2-4 page research article summarizing the key ideas and key results of your work. There are two options in submitting an EA:

Submit EA alone, in which case the EA alone will be published in the conference proceedings if accepted.
Submit EA as a preliminary version of your full paper, in which case you may get confirmation/review comments from the committee and can then proceed to consolidating the EA into a full paper for submission.
Option 2 grants the full paper much higher chance to be accepted into the conference proceedings and hence is strongly recommended.
