RESEARCHING ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN TRANSITION ECONOMIES: 
Assessment of the last 25 years, going beyond the ‘transition’. 

We are pleased to invite you to the 4^th REDETE conference, which this time will take place in Graz, Austria, October 22-24, 2015. As the Conference subtitle suggests, we welcome papers that would deepen our understanding of the economic development and entrepreneurship in transition countries, going beyond  a ‘reactive’ research that have been prevailing in the last 25 years. Indeed, during this period, scholarly research largely failed to answer an increasing number of questions that concern us all in transition countries, policy makers in particular. We will, above all value papers based on reach empirical data, as well as methodologically innovative research.  As always, we encourage doctoral students and young researchers to prepare their evolving research for the writing workshop that will be organised during the Conference.
