    Since 1998 the Urrutia Elejalde has annually organized a Summer School
    on frontier topics between philosophy, economics and other social
    sciences, bringing together scholars from all these fields to explore
    them. The aim of this year Summer School is to introduce participants to
    the vast research that is taking place in the area of social norms.
    >From philosophy and psychology to evolutionary game theory and
    experimental economics, recent work on social norms is shedding light on
    why and under what circumstances people engage in pro-social behavior,
    and how norms may emerge, stabilize or decay.

    We encourage submission of papers that cover one or more of the above
    areas. The scientific committe will consider a number of submissions by
    young scholars at graduate or postgraduate level. The Foundation will
    cover the registration fees and accomodation expenses of the authors.

    Please send a 2000 words pdf abstract to David Teira (dteira [at]
    fsof.uned.es) before Jan 31st 2008. A decision will be made by March 15th.
