SUMMARY:Rethinking Capitalism and Economic Order V
DESCRIPTION:The History of Economic Thought Working Group and East Asia Working Group of the Young Scholars Initiative is launching a webinar series that brings critical attention to the idea\, practice\, and evolution of capitalism. This project aims to reconnect the history of economic ideas with the world they sought to describe\, reform\, or transform. Capitalism is not just an economic system; it is a lived experience\, a political project\, and an ideological battleground. \n  \nWe seek to open a conversation about capitalism as it has been theorised\, imagined\, and contested across historical periods and geographies. From early critiques of enclosures and slavery\, to colonial accumulation and contemporary platform economies\, capitalism’s forms have shifted\, but its underlying logics—commodification\, accumulation\, exclusion—continue to shape our worlds. \n  \nThis series will invite senior scholars who work across traditions—Marxist\, classical\, feminist\, ecological\, decolonial—to speak to these shifting realities. Our goal is not to arrive at a unified definition of capitalism\, but to stay with its plurality. What is the nature of capitalism in our time? What kind of capitalism is being debated in different contexts? What kind of resistance does it provoke? How do economic theories shape their justification or critique? \n  \nOur approach to history foregrounds tension\, silence\, and the politics of knowledge. The HET WG places special emphasis on themes like decolonisation\, pluralism\, epistemic difference\, and the often under-acknowledged intellectual contributions from the Global South. We invite our participants to think about histories of caste\, race\, gender\, and land\, alongside more familiar categories such as markets\, property\, and the state. \nKey areas of focus include: \n\nHistories of capitalism across continents: not just as diffusion from Europe\, but as co-productions and frictions and histories of capitalism have their centres spreading across the globe\, not only in the WEST but in the EAST too\, from Malacca\, Hugli\, Calicut\, Macao\, Nagasaki\, Pegu to Batavia\, to name a few.\nCapitalism’s relationship with colonialism\, racialisation\, and dispossession\nProperty regimes\, financial architectures\, and state-market entanglements\nTrade\, Tariffs and Wars\nDebates on crisis: inflation\, debt\, austerity\, climate collapse\nIntellectual genealogies: from Marx and Gandhi to Du Bois\, Luxemburg\, Fanon\, and Polanyi\nThe metabolism of capital and planetary boundaries\nThe role of economics as a discipline in naturalising or resisting capitalist logics\n\nThis series is not an attempt to replace critique with nostalgia or celebration. Instead\, we want to create a space where histories of capitalism can inform strategies for its transformation or transcendence. Theories of capitalism are not just descriptions; they are interventions. We hope to create a space where critique and imagination work in tandem. \n  \nProf. Louis-Philippe Rochon\, Full Professor of Economics\, Laurentian University\n  \nMonetary Policy During and After the Trump Era\, Thursday\, 5 March 2026\, 9:00 AM EST\n  \nLouis-Philippe Rochon is Full Professor of Economics at Laurentian University\, Canada\, where he has been teaching since 2004.
