XVII ON ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT APRIL 19- 22 / 2016 / MOSCOW SECTION MEETINGS PROGRAM Moscow, 2016 Dear Colleagues! On 19–22 April 2016, the XVII April International Academic Con- ference on Economic and Social Development will take place in Moscow, being held by the National Research University Higher School of Economics with support of the World Bank. This year, we decided to change slightly our traditional format of the large plenary sessions, having transformed them into the hour- and-a-half ones on relevant issues, featuring experts, as well as the public authority, business and civil society representatives. There will be discussions on a variety of themes such as macroeconomics, fi- nancial markets, budget, social policy, health protection, migration, education, technological challenges and innovations, business and law, values and social structural changes, agriculture, etc. As for the sectional program of the Conference, it will be diversi- fied as usual. By the time being, the conference program has 46 sections, in identifying which almost all Latin alphabetic letters are used. Among the honorary guests of the Conference are Professors: Gerard Roland, University of Cali- fornia, Berkeley, Timur Kuran, Duke University, Daniel Treisman, University of California, Peter Strohschneider, President/German Research Foundation, Ronald Inglehart, University of Michi- gan, Richard Murnane, Harvard University, and many others. To hold a special seminar jointly with the European Association for Comparative Economic Studies (EACES) is going to become a tradition. This time its topic is “Russian Businesses in Comparative Prospect.” This year, two PhD seminars on Finance and Management are planned within a frame- work of the Master program of the Conference. It has already become a tradition to present the Gaidar Award for young economists within a framework of the Conference, established by the Yegor Gaidar Foundation and designed to pro- mote the Russian economic science development and encourage the integration of the young Russian scientists into the global academic community. This year, the ceremony of the presentation of the National Award in Applied Economics will take place, handed out every other year for the outstanding published papers dedicated to the analysis of the Russian economy at the country, sectoral and regional levels, or at the level of certain busi- nesses. I wish you all interesting discussions! Chair of the Program Committee E.
