SUMMARY:YSI-EAEPE Summer School: Reimagining Migration Economics through a Pluralist Lens
DESCRIPTION:Dates: 30.06.2025 – 02.07.2025 \nVenue: Scuola di Economia e Studi Aziendali – Roma Tre\, Roma \nAbstract Submission Deadline: 15.05.2025 – Rolling Acceptance \nThe 18th EAEPE Summer School explores migration through a pluralist\, heterodox lens\, offering a space to engage critically with the mainstream of models of migration economics. It examines migration as a complex\, multidimensional process shaped by structural\, historical\, and cultural forces. Here\, participants will have the opportunity to learn from renowned scholars in the field and receive feedback on their work. \nPeople have always moved—between rural and urban areas\, across borders\, within regions\, and across continents—shaping and reshaping economic\, cultural\, and psychological landscapes. Current political debates often frame migration as a new crisis threatening Western industrialised nations\, focusing narrowly on movements from colonised countries to the so-called Global North as if these flows were the entirety of migration. Migration is a multifaceted phenomenon that can be read as driven by individual motivations\, imperial or capitalist institutions\, or by cultural processes\, but clearly never understood through a single perspective. \nPeople might move to search for opportunities\, or because they are forcibly displaced due to war\, political instability\, and environmental pressures. People from the capitalist core might move to the periphery as expats in a legitimised role\, while others move illegally through borders made of barbed wire and salt. Capitalist labour demands funnel many into low-wage\, precarious work in places that seem to be more focused on value-creation than on societal and human needs. Stratification dynamics create new and reproduce old racialised\, gender\, or class groups\, with new marginalizations and inequalities. Migration might open new hopes of cooperation and development where it is least expected. Together\, these forces form a complex\, evolving network that continues to redefine societies\, economies\, and identities worldwide. \nHowever\, mainstream economics often reduces migration to a simplistic question of labour supply and individual utility maximisation. Neoclassical models generally portray migrants as rational actors responding to market signals\, thereby ignoring broader structural influences and the diversity of motivations behind migration. Scholars from all schools of social sciences have critiqued this approach\, arguing that it fails to account for power imbalances\, historical inequalities\, and the role of social and environmental factors in migration. \nIn response\, the Summer School offers a pluralistic approach that draws on heterodox economics and interdisciplinary perspectives\, aiming to equip participants with tools to analyse migration in its full complexity. This approach considers this phenomenon as a process embedded within a broader network of forces—economic\, social\, ecological\, and historical—that interact dynamically and shape global patterns. Rather than viewing migration through isolated “push” and “pull” factors\, we emphasise its role within interconnected systems. Participants will explore diverse perspectives\, including the impact of institutional and structural dynamics\, the political economy of global labour markets\, ecological pressures\, social and cultural networks\, and the historical legacies of colonialism. \nThrough these lenses\, we aim to build a richer\, more nuanced understanding of migration in economics that challenges simplistic economistic narratives and captures the complex reality of global movement. The Summer School is Co-Organised with the European Association for Evolutionary Political Economy (EAEPE) to connect with established heterodox scholars and rather than one-directional teaching we want to co-develop new ideas with PhD Students by using workshop formats and non-formal education methods. \nThe 18th EAEPE Summer School is open to PhD students and early-career researchers working in particular in the field of institutional and evolutionary analysis\, but is not limited to those approaches. Lecturers will address the topic of migration from different perspectives and approaches. Many Research Areas are relevant: Social Economics\, Public Economics\, Migration Economics\,Development Economics\, Macroeconomics\, Labour Economics\, Urban and Regional Economics\, Economic History\, Evolutionary Economics\, Comparative Economics\, and the impact of migration on Innovation and Industrial Policy. \nMore generally\, contributions from all fields using institutional\, evolutionary\, multidisciplinary approaches are welcome. Lectures by internationally renowned scholars will be given in the morning\, while afternoons will be devoted to presentations by advanced PhD students and early-career researchers\, who will thus benefit from comments and suggestions from experts in the field. \nMore details on the website of EAEPE

SUMMARY:YSI Webinars for the UN Rio Conventions: “Why do climate negotiations fail? From different points of view”
DESCRIPTION:Since 1992\, the World Community\, served by the United Nations System\, is fully committed to addressing three key environmental challenges: climate change\, desertification\, and biodiversity loss. Served by the Three Rio Conventions\, as they are now known\, with their respective Secretariats: \n  \n\nUNFCCC: United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change\,\nUNCCD: United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification\,\nUNCBD: Convention on Biological Diversity.\n\nThe purpose of the Conference of the Parties (COPs) is to accelerate\, operationalize\, and advance the implementation of the Conventions. YSI strongly supports the success of the Rio Conventions and actively engages in this process. \n  \nThe purpose of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention (COP) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is to convene member countries every year to determine ambition and responsibilities and identify and assess climate measures. The 21st session of the COP (COP21) led to the Paris Agreement\, which mobilized global collective action to limit the global temperature increase to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels by 2050\, and to act to adapt to the already existing effects of climate change. This year\, COP30 will be held from 10 to 21 November\, in Belem\, Brazil. \n  \nAs YSI Community\, we are involved in the UNFCCC Processes through engagements in the COPs and SBs to raise awareness of the Climate Process. However\, we see a challenge on how the negotiation process turns into a success. \n  \nThis year\, we invite you to the YSI Webinars on the UNFCCC where we will go deeper into “Why do climate negotiations fail?”. To understand why do climate negotiations fail\, we want to create a holistic perspective. In this process\, we want to consider three distinct perspectives to the climate negotiations. Namely\, theoretical (scientists)\, practical (non-party) and negotiators (party) perspectives. \n  \nFirst Webinar: From a Practical Perspective with Clive Donnley on March 26th at 6 PM CET\n\nTo learn from NGOs and non-party organizations who have experience in the climate negotiations process.  \n\n\n\nWhat are the existing limitations for non-parties to engage in climate negotiations? \nTo what extent do their voices matter? \nWhat do they wish to see differently?\n\n\n\nModerator: Vania Llerena.\nDiscussants: Annet Dianah Nannono\, Adekunle Fiyin Ademikanra\, and Srishti Jain. \nAccess to the Session Recording here.  \n\n  \nSecond Webinar: From a Negotiators Perspective with Wassim Dbouk on May 28th at 6 PM CET\n\nTo learn from those who collaborated with politicians from a country (party) active in the negotiations. To understand the following questions\, \n\n\n\nWhat are the challenges in convincing parties to commit?\nWhy do parties avoid making climate commitments and agree? \nWhat type of roadblocks can be avoided and how?\n\n\n\nModerator: Maria Virginia Solis Wahnish.\nDiscussants: Simba Marowa\, Adekunle Fiyin Ademikanra\, and Mateusz Ciasnocha. \nAccess to the Session Recording here.\nAccess to the Slides here.  \n\n  \nThird Webinar: From a Theoretical Perspective with Piotr Tryjanowski on July 1st at 6 PM CET\nTo discuss why we observe failure in climate negotiations. To be specific\,  \n\n\n\n\n\nWhat drives persistent coordination challenges in international climate talks?\nHow might insights from natural sciences help reframe the way we approach climate negotiations?\nWhat are the possible alternative solutions to devise a climate negotiations system to mitigate the existing limitations?\n\n\n\n\n\nModerator: Nurlan Lalayev.\nDiscussants: Reyhan Mammadova and Florian Repper. \nAccess to the Session Recording here.
