Message from the newly elected SAET President

SAET

Dear SAET Members,

On behalf of the Executive Committee and the Board of the Society, I am delighted to wish all members and friends of SAET a happy and fruitful year, bringing new ideas and new projects and advancing even more theoretical economics.

Since its founding, SAET has achieved an impressive course, extending successfully the number, the size and the topic range of the conferences it organizes worldwide, and patronizing two well-recognized academic journals with impact factors steadily increasing.

Last year’s accomplishments, with the annual conference taking place in Santiago de Chile and the European conference taking place in Manchester, were a perfect proof of this remarkable momentum. For that I would like first to thank and congratulate Hervé Moulin, our last President, for his commitment, his enthusiasm and his talent to communicate. The presidential address was a clear and convincing presentation together with the plenary talks by Vassili Skreta, Matthew Jackson, Laura Duval, and Rabah Amir in Santiago and by Aloisio Araujo, Carlos Hervès Beloso, and Peter Hammond in Manchester.
