Please list in your email the name(s), affiliation(s), and email contacts of the author(s), and please indicate who will likely be the presenter of the paper, if accepted. Please add affiliations and email addresses of your co-authors if they also might be interested in attending the conference.

As a special feature of our 2018 conference, two prizes will be awarded:

• one for the best Slovenian Law-and-Economics researcher at the conference

  (this prize will be sponsored by Schönherr Attorneys-at-law - branch Slovenia)

For this reason, we have extended the deadline for submission, which is now February 26, 2018. Acceptance decisions will be communicated in March 2018.
