Dear Colleagues, Below is information about the Methodology Workshop that the Association for Heterodox Economics is sponsoring along with London Metropolitan University and the American Journal of Economics and Sociology. This is the 6th methodology workshop sponsored by the AHE (see the new AHE web site: http://www.hetecon.net for information about the past workshops) and it is open to any and all UK and overseas registered PhD students-support stipends are available. Please inform your doctoral students about this unique opportunity to learn about research methods other than just econometrics and about how econometrics can be used along side other research methods, including qualitative research methods. This is particularly important for doctoral students interested in heterodox economics, since they are generally not exposed to non-econometric research methods which are quite important for carrying out good heterodox research. For further information about the workshop, contact Andrew Mearman whose e-mail address is given below.
