Dear colleagues:

The Society for the History of Japanese Economic Thought (SHJET)
will co-organize a one-day conference (including a plenary and
a symposium sessions as well as probably parallel sessions)
in Shandong Province in this coming mid-September.
Younger scholars are enthusiastic to promote an academic exchange
with Chinese counterparts. The scholars of my generation give them
our full-power support. The speakers of SHJET and their titles have
been settled in the program since April.

Daniel Yergin's _The Quest: Energy, Security, and the Remaking
of the Modern World_ (2011) includes the story of a Chinese energy
company's CEO's experience in public during the Cultural Revolution.
As you know, school teachers had a similar or more loathsome 
experience
because they were (also) regarded as anti-revolutionaries.
Those who were students at the time have turned late 40s and 50s.

Thank you for your interest in diversity !!! in economic thought.

Aiko Ikeo

Dear colleagues:

  I have the following information and welcome the related 
information:

  The eighth biannual meeting of the International Ninomiya Sontoku
  Association will be held in Shandong Province, PRC, in 2018.

  The 2018 meeting of another academic association (based in Japan) is
  scheduled to be held in Shandong Province, PRC.

  The 22nd International Congress of Historical Studies was held in
  Jinan, Shandong Province, in August 2015.

  I have heard that a conference of foreign (or international) 
academic
  association can be organized at a university in Shandong Province by 
a
  professor who is a member of the association.  I am not sure that 
this
  information is widely shared in PRC, though.

  (Please remember that I am not interested in any academic conference
  held in PRC in the early October.  People in PRC celebrate the
  foundation of PRC usually during the week beginning on October 1, 
the
  National Foundation Day.)

  Thank you,

  Aiko Ikeo
