The International Conference on Eurasian Economies aims at bringing together academicians and decision makers involved in research about Eurasian countries in a forum to discuss current and future economic and social issues of the region. The meeting will be held in Istanbul, Turkey, where Europe and Asia blend together both culturally and geographically by the Bosphorus. Topics of discussion will include globalization, sustainable growth and development, energy and natural resources, economic and social ties with the EU and the USA, as well as the 2008 global financial crisis. Submitted abstracts and papers, as well as presentations and discussions at the conference can be conducted in English, Turkish or Russian.
