174 EAAE Seminar Economics of culture and food in evolving agri-food systems and rural areas Matera, 10-12 October 2019. The seminar aims to promote academic debate about food and rural cultures (in the different meanings mentioned above) and their implications for agricultural and food economics, with either an individual, chain and/or system perspective. In particular, the seminar wants to fuel interaction among different branches of agricultural and food economics that consider partial aspects of culture, in order to promote synergies, cross-fertilisation and system perspective within the discipline. It also wants to explore the potential for multi and interdisciplinary research at the boundary of agricultural economics on the theme of the seminar. Participants who intend to contribute a paper are requested to submit an extended abstract of maximum 2 pages (about 500 words) in English by March 31, 2019.
