Since Adam Smith, social and economic institutions have been considered as exerting a significant influence on the 
historical patterns of growth and distribution of nations. More recently, economists have also emphasized that the 
process of growth and distribution in turn shape the evolution of institutions. Growth and distribution are lenses 
through which we can investigate the complex interplay of the birth, the life, and the decline of social and economic 
institutions. And institutional and social dynamics, in turn, are important elements in comprehending the interaction 
between growth and distribution. The goal of this Conference is to provide a forum for the presentation and discussion 
of different approaches to the issues of the institutional and social dynamics of growth and distribution, with all the 
theoretical, empirical, historical, and methodological implications. Conference topics will include any aspect of the 
relationships among (i) institutions and social dynamics, (ii) growth and development, and (iii) distribution, particularly 
as these are manifest in • public versus private sector issues • knowledge, human capital, and intellectual property • 
financial markets • international/regional dimensions, • demography • environmental sustainability • governance Both 
the theoretical, methodological, and the empirical aspects, including historical perspectives, are of interest. A 
combination of invited and submitted papers will be chosen for the final program. Submissions of whole sessions are 
welcome. The submissions will be reviewed by a Scientific Committee consisting of: •Sam Bowles (Santa Fe Institute, 
USA) •David de la Croix (Université catholique de Louvain, Belgium) •Oded Galor (Brown University, USA, and 
Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel) •Neri Salvadori (University of Pisa, Italy) •Stephen J. Turnovsky (University 
of Washington, USA) It is planned to publish selections of papers in a special issue of Metroeconomica and a larger 
selection in a volume with a major publisher. A dedicated software, Conference Maker, will be used for paper 
submission and program management through the site http://zeus.econ.umd.edu/conference/SDGD2007. Submission 
of a 1-2 page abstract should be submitted before July 20. Authors will receive notification of acceptance by
