Call for Papers The Decline of the Middle Classes in the Developed World?,

*Madrid, Spain*

September 28-30, 2014

Conference Website<http://umdcipe.org/conferences/
DecliningMiddleClassesSpain/>

In the wake of the 2008/2009 financial crisis have come increasing concerns
that we may be witnessing the decline of the middle classes across the
developed world. The forces underlying this uneasiness, of course, were at
work before the crisis, but it seems to have hastened and aggravated their
impact. Is the decades-long period of relative middle-class affluence at an
end? Or will current difficulties pass as national economies strengthen?

In order to explore these and related issues, the Universidad Nacional de
Educación a Distancia (UNED), the University of Maryland School of Public
Policy (UMD), and the Association for Public Policy Analysis and Management
(APPAM) will hold a conference in Madrid, Spain, September 29-30, 2014. (An
opening reception will take place the evening of September 28.)

The conference is designed to attract a worldwide audience, including
academics and professionals from universities, think tanks, government
agencies, nonprofits, and the private sector. Paper and panel submissions
are welcomed on:

- the social and economic condition of the middle class in individual or
groups of countries (including trends over time),

and on the contributing and countering factors, including:

- macroeconomic policy;
- labor market conditions;
- family structure;
- work/family issues;
- demographics (such as aging and disability);
- immigration and migration;
- government cash transfer programs;
- social welfare; and
- workforce development efforts (including remedial education programs,
such as basic, secondary, post school and career-related education; and
higher education).

Proposals should be submitted through the APPAM website
here<http://www.appam.org/events/international-conferences/2014/madrid/>from
January 23, 2014 through March 31, 2014. Proposal reviews will be
completed by May 2, 2014 and notifications will be sent directly
thereafter. If a proposal is accepted, the presenter will need to register
for the conference in order to participate (see "registration" below).

A person may submit no more than two proposals (including both
single-authored and co-authored papers). Individuals will be limited to two
acceptances (at least one of which must be multi-authored) and only one
opportunity to present at the conference.
