YSI @ Demand and Growth Regimes: Expanding the Debate

Description of the event

This workshop aims to facilitate the ongoing debate on diverging demand and growth regimes (DGRs) within and between the fields of post-Keynesian economics, Marxist approaches, regulation school, dependency theory, comparative political economy, international political economy and other critical political economy perspectives. We aim to expand the debate around demand and growth regimes, especially along the following sub-themes:

1. DGRs and the Structure of Production
2. DGRs and Industrial Policy
3. The Political Economy of DGRs
4. Dynamics of DGRs
5. Elements of a Progressive Demand and Growth Regime

These sub-themes will be examined through theoretical interventions from the different political economy perspectives, as well as, empirical contributions ranging from large samples to comparative and single case studies of Global North and South countries.
Past events
This workshop constitutes the third one organized by the Growth Regimes Working Group (GRWG), part of the Institute for International Political Economy (IPE), dedicated on this topic. In March 2021, the two-day online workshop “Macroeconomic Regimes: Post-Keynesian and Critical Political Economy Perspectives” took place. The second two-day online workshop, “Frontiers in Growth Regimes Research: Theoretical Perspectives and Country Cases”, followed in October 2022. Parts of both workshops were presented in organized session at the FMM conferences 2021 and 2022 and published within the IPE Working Paper Series . Furthermore, the contributions of the second workshop resulted in two special issues of the European Journal of Economics and Economic Policies – 2023 Issue 3 and 2024 Issue 1,  which are available as open access.
