Dear shoe-list members,
I am forwarding you a message for MA or PhD students, or young academics
(below 33).
regards,
Rebeca

A film suggests leisure, relaxation. Economics brings to mind research, a
profession, studies. Films are entertaining, artistic. They trigger
emotions. Economics requires a minimum of formalism that can put off,
especially with variables often named after Greek letters. And yet… Could
films and economics have an intersection, an alignment? It is the challenge
that André de Palma (CY Cergy, Paris University) and Luc Leruth (CERDI,
Clermont-Ferrand) have taken up by launching a collection of essays
entitled Filmonomics. Their idea was met with about twenty renowned
economists, active in the academic world, major international institutions
or the private sector, contributing to the book. They chose a film and
extracted its guiding economic ideas. Along the way, André and Luc forgot
to actively pursue the participation of young economists. To make amends,
they propose to organize a competition for the best essays written by MA or
PhD students, or young academics (below 33). A jury consisting of film
personalities and economists will select the three best submissions. These
will be published in the book and three prizes of €600 awarded during a
ceremony.

 *Please send your manuscripts in French or English before March 13, 2023
to André de Palma *([log in to unmask]) and Luc Leruth (
[log in to unmask]). You can write to them if you have any questions.
The manuscript should not exceed 15 pages, 1.5 line spacing. It will
include at most one page of references. The text will not contain any
equation or graph. Its accessibility to an educated but non-specialist
public will be an important selection criterion.
