International Conference on Research in Economics and Social Science, Shiga University (RESSU)


ABOUT US

The RESSU (Research in Economics and Social Science, Shiga University) was established informally as conference committee consisting of faculty members in 2016 for strengthening the Faculty of Economicsf commitment to research in economics and social sciences. To achieve one of its own goal of interacting with scholars overseas, the RESSU has organized several international conferences in the past few years, including the 12th International Conference on Asian Financial Market (ICAFM) in January 2017 jointly with Nagasaki University and Southwestern University of Economics and Finance. Celebrating a newly launched faculty of Data Science on the same campus on April 2017, the RESSU initiates to organize the 1st International Conference RESSU in November 2017 and the second RESSU (jointly with Nagasaki University) in 2018. The RESSU plans to meet once annually on the regular basis. The RESSU conference welcomes both theoretical research papers and empirical research papers on any topics in  Economics as well as in broader social science. We strongly encourage international scholars to submit research papers in the fields chosen as special topics of the year.
