Because of the large number of submissions and in order to provide a more congenial atmosphere for scholarly discussions, we have moved the location of the conference to Segovia (about 25 minutes outside of Madrid by high-speed train).

The University of Maryland, Center for International Policy Exchanges will hold a conference  on: The Decline of the Middle Classes in the Developed World? from  September 28–30, 2014.

Proposals will be accepted through April 11, and can be submitted here: http://umdcipe.org/conferences/DecliningMiddleClassesSpain/
