Firstly, we would like to remind you that deadlines for submitting paper proposals are approaching; for example,ASE-ASSA (4/30), URPE-ASSA (5/1), ICAPE (4/3o), EAEPE (5/1), and so on. Follow the link provided to get details about each conference.

Secondly, we are glad to announce that a book on Heterodox Analysis of Financial Crisis and Reform has just been published. This book is the outcome of the Fourth Biannual Cross-Border Post Keynesian Conference held at Buffalo State College in October 2009. Both TJ (as a co-editor and author) and TS (as an author) contributed to this volume. We hope you find this book thought provoking. We want to remind you that you can have a copy of any heterodox books if you write a review for the Heterodox Economics Newsletter. Contact our book review editor, Dr. Fadhel Kaboub at [log in to unmask], for any query about a book review.

Lastly, We will depart from the usual commentary in this edition and direct you to a note in the For Your Information section. The  Japan Society for Historians of Economic Thought (JSHET) Annual Meetings, which were to be held at Fukushima University in May, have been postponed due to the ongoing efforts to recover from the devastating impacts of the earthquake/tsunami. To our colleagues in Japan, no apology is necessary. Our thoughts are with you and the people of Japan, and we will support you in any way we can.
