TARK XII

Twelfth conference on
Theoretical Aspects of Rationality and Knowledge

July 6-8, 2009
Stanford University




CALL FOR PAPERS
Strong preference will be given to papers whose topic is of interest to an interdisciplinary audience, and papers should be accessible to such an audience. Papers will be held to the usual high standards of research publications. In particular, they should 1) contain enough information to enable the program committee to identify the main contribution of the work; 2) explain the significance of the work -- its novelty and its practical or theoretical implications; and 3) include comparisons with and references to relevant literature.

Submissions are now invited to TARK-XII. Papers can be submitted here and should be no longer than ten double-spaced pages (4,000 words). Optional technical details such as proofs may be included in an appendix.

JOURNAL PUBLICATIONS
Economists should be aware that special arrangements have been made with certain economics journals (in particular, with International Journal of Game Theory, Games and Economic Behavior, Journal of Economic Theory, and Mathematical Social Sciences) so that publication of an extended abstract in TARK will not prejudice publication of a full journal version.

For economists concerned that publishing in the TARK proceedings might prejudice eventual publication in Econometrica or Theoretical Economics, since our main goal is to have as interesting a conference as possible, it is acceptable for authors of accepted extended abstracts to publish only short abstracts in the TARK proceedings. (Note that this is not a problem for authors who plan to submit to any of the International Journal of Game Theory, Games and Economic Behavior, Journal of Economic Theory, and Mathematical Social Sciences, for which we have agreements in place.)
