SUMMARY:Money View Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Money View Reading Group reads and discusses writings on money\, banking\, and finance. We are a self-directed group. Anyone interested in money and banking can read the readings\, join us for discussions\, or suggest future readings. \nWe meet for 90 minutes via Zoom on Mondays at 2 pm Eastern Time US (New York). \n\nCurrent Book\n\n\nHow a Ledger Became a Central Bank: A Monetary History of the Bank of Amsterdam by Stephen Quinn & William Roberds (2023)\n\nhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1108706150/ \nFrom the description \nBefore the US Federal Reserve and the Bank of England\, the Bank of Amsterdam (‘Bank’) was a dominant central bank with a global impact on money and credit. How a Ledger Became a Central Bank draws on extensive archival data and rich secondary literature\, to offer a new and detailed portrait of this historically significant institution. It describes how the Bank struggled to manage its money before hitting a modern solution: fiat money in combination with a repurchase facility and discretionary open market operations. It describes techniques the Bank used to monitor and stabilize money stock\, and how foreign sovereigns could exploit the liquidity of the Bank for state finance. Closing with a discussion of commonalities of the Bank of Amsterdam with later central banks\, including the Federal Reserve\, this book has generated a great deal of excitement among scholars of central banking and the role of money in the macroeconomy. \nWe will discuss this book across three sessions. \n\n2026-09-14 — Discussion Session 1 (Chapters 1–3) (Recording)\n\n\nUpcoming Sessions\n\n\n2026-09-21 – 2:00pm EDT\n\nDuring the off week\, we discuss the 2023 BIS Working Paper 1065 “The Bank of Amsterdam and the limits of fiat money\,” by Wilko Bolt\, Jon Frost\, Hyun Song Shin and Peter Wierts \nhttps://www.bis.org/publications/working-paper-1065-bank-amsterdam-and-limits-fiat-money \nFrom the description: \nCentral banks can operate with negative equity\, and many have done so in history without undermining trust in fiat money. However\, there are limits. How negative can central bank equity be before fiat money loses credibility? We address this question using a global game approach motivated by the fall of the Bank of Amsterdam (1609–1820). We solve for the unique break point where negative equity and asset illiquidity render fiat money worthless. We draw lessons on the role of fiscal support and central bank capital in sustaining trust in fiat money. \n\n2026-09-28 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nWe discuss Chapters 4–6 of How a Ledger Became a Central Bank. \nChapter 4: First Steps\, 1609–1659 \n\n4.1 Debasement\n4.2 The Fed That Wasn’t\n4.3 Displacement\n4.4 Replacement\n4.5 Agio Anchor\n4.6 Conclusion\n\nChapter 5: Emergence of the Receipt System\, 1660–1710 \n\n5.1 Yet Another New Local Coinage System\n5.2 Deposits\n5.3 Receipts\n5.4 The End of Withdrawal\n5.5 Expansion\n5.6 Political Economy\n5.7 Conclusion\nA.5 Additional Details of Receipts and Master Account Credits\n\nChapter 6: Metal in Motion: The Mechanics of Receipts \n\n6.1 Transformations: 1711–1736\n6.2 Flows under Receipt\n6.3 Economics of Receipts\n6.4 Comparisons with Modern Repos\n6.5 Receipts within the Monetary System\n6.6 Instability\n6.7 Conclusion\nA.6 Categorization of Metal within the Bank\n\n\n2026-10-12 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nWe discuss Chapters 7–9 of How a Ledger Became a Central Bank. \nChapter 7: Two Banks and One Money\, 1711–1791 \n\n7.1 The Rest of the Story\n7.2 Strength through Unity\n7.3 Operations\n7.4 Monetary Control\n7.5 Loss of Control\n7.6 Safe Asset\n7.7 Conclusion\n\nChapter 8: Prussia’s Debasement during the Seven Years War: The Role of the Bank \n\n8.1 Beating the Dutch at Their Own Game\n8.2 A Change of Tactics\n8.3 War Finance\n8.4 Entrepreneurs’ Activity in Amsterdam\n8.5 Amsterdam and Prussia’s Gold Coinage\n8.6 The Great Unwind\n8.7 The Challenges of Reinforcement\n8.8 Conclusion\n\nChapter 9: The Bank’s Place in Central Bank History \n\n9.1 From Then to Now\n9.2 Creative Destruction\n9.3 The Two-Bank Solution\n9.4 Monetary Maps: 1750 and 1900\n9.5 The Once and Future Bank\n\n\nFuture Suggested Readings\n\n\nThe Almighty Dollar: 500 Years of the World’s Most Powerful Money by Brendan Greeley (2026)\nWell Worth Saving: How the New Deal Safeguarded Home Ownership by Fishback\, Rose\, and Snowden (2013)\nSlapped by the Invisible Hand: The Panic of 2007 by Gary Gorton (2010)\nThe House of Morgan by Ron Chernow (1990)\nA Study of Money Flows in the United States by Morris Copeland (1952)\nA History of the Greenbacks by Wesley Clair Mitchell (1903)\nCalming the Storms: The Carry Trade\, the Banking School and British Financial Crises Since 1825 by Charles Read (2023)\nBenjamin Strong: Central Banker by Lester V.

SUMMARY:Money View Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Money View Reading Group reads and discusses writings on money\, banking\, and finance. We are a self-directed group. Anyone interested in money and banking can read the readings\, join us for discussions\, or suggest future readings. \nWe meet for 90 minutes via Zoom on Mondays at 2 pm Eastern Time US (New York). \n\nCurrent Book\n\n\nHow a Ledger Became a Central Bank: A Monetary History of the Bank of Amsterdam by Stephen Quinn & William Roberds (2023)\n\nhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1108706150/ \nFrom the description \nBefore the US Federal Reserve and the Bank of England\, the Bank of Amsterdam (‘Bank’) was a dominant central bank with a global impact on money and credit. How a Ledger Became a Central Bank draws on extensive archival data and rich secondary literature\, to offer a new and detailed portrait of this historically significant institution. It describes how the Bank struggled to manage its money before hitting a modern solution: fiat money in combination with a repurchase facility and discretionary open market operations. It describes techniques the Bank used to monitor and stabilize money stock\, and how foreign sovereigns could exploit the liquidity of the Bank for state finance. Closing with a discussion of commonalities of the Bank of Amsterdam with later central banks\, including the Federal Reserve\, this book has generated a great deal of excitement among scholars of central banking and the role of money in the macroeconomy. \nWe will discuss this book across three sessions. \n\n2026-09-14 — Discussion Session 1 (Chapters 1–3) (Recording)\n\n\nUpcoming Sessions\n\n\n2026-09-21 – 2:00pm EDT\n\nDuring the off week\, we discuss the 2023 BIS Working Paper 1065 “The Bank of Amsterdam and the limits of fiat money\,” by Wilko Bolt\, Jon Frost\, Hyun Song Shin and Peter Wierts \nhttps://www.bis.org/publications/working-paper-1065-bank-amsterdam-and-limits-fiat-money \nFrom the description: \nCentral banks can operate with negative equity\, and many have done so in history without undermining trust in fiat money. However\, there are limits. How negative can central bank equity be before fiat money loses credibility? We address this question using a global game approach motivated by the fall of the Bank of Amsterdam (1609–1820). We solve for the unique break point where negative equity and asset illiquidity render fiat money worthless. We draw lessons on the role of fiscal support and central bank capital in sustaining trust in fiat money. \n\n2026-09-28 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nWe discuss Chapters 4–6 of How a Ledger Became a Central Bank. \nChapter 4: First Steps\, 1609–1659 \n\n4.1 Debasement\n4.2 The Fed That Wasn’t\n4.3 Displacement\n4.4 Replacement\n4.5 Agio Anchor\n4.6 Conclusion\n\nChapter 5: Emergence of the Receipt System\, 1660–1710 \n\n5.1 Yet Another New Local Coinage System\n5.2 Deposits\n5.3 Receipts\n5.4 The End of Withdrawal\n5.5 Expansion\n5.6 Political Economy\n5.7 Conclusion\nA.5 Additional Details of Receipts and Master Account Credits\n\nChapter 6: Metal in Motion: The Mechanics of Receipts \n\n6.1 Transformations: 1711–1736\n6.2 Flows under Receipt\n6.3 Economics of Receipts\n6.4 Comparisons with Modern Repos\n6.5 Receipts within the Monetary System\n6.6 Instability\n6.7 Conclusion\nA.6 Categorization of Metal within the Bank\n\n\n2026-10-12 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nWe discuss Chapters 7–9 of How a Ledger Became a Central Bank. \nChapter 7: Two Banks and One Money\, 1711–1791 \n\n7.1 The Rest of the Story\n7.2 Strength through Unity\n7.3 Operations\n7.4 Monetary Control\n7.5 Loss of Control\n7.6 Safe Asset\n7.7 Conclusion\n\nChapter 8: Prussia’s Debasement during the Seven Years War: The Role of the Bank \n\n8.1 Beating the Dutch at Their Own Game\n8.2 A Change of Tactics\n8.3 War Finance\n8.4 Entrepreneurs’ Activity in Amsterdam\n8.5 Amsterdam and Prussia’s Gold Coinage\n8.6 The Great Unwind\n8.7 The Challenges of Reinforcement\n8.8 Conclusion\n\nChapter 9: The Bank’s Place in Central Bank History \n\n9.1 From Then to Now\n9.2 Creative Destruction\n9.3 The Two-Bank Solution\n9.4 Monetary Maps: 1750 and 1900\n9.5 The Once and Future Bank\n\n\nFuture Suggested Readings\n\n\nThe Almighty Dollar: 500 Years of the World’s Most Powerful Money by Brendan Greeley (2026)\nWell Worth Saving: How the New Deal Safeguarded Home Ownership by Fishback\, Rose\, and Snowden (2013)\nSlapped by the Invisible Hand: The Panic of 2007 by Gary Gorton (2010)\nThe House of Morgan by Ron Chernow (1990)\nA Study of Money Flows in the United States by Morris Copeland (1952)\nA History of the Greenbacks by Wesley Clair Mitchell (1903)\nCalming the Storms: The Carry Trade\, the Banking School and British Financial Crises Since 1825 by Charles Read (2023)\nBenjamin Strong: Central Banker by Lester V.

SUMMARY:YSI-RSA Webinar Series on Regional Inequalities and Perceived Left-Behindness
DESCRIPTION:The YSI Urban and Regional Economics\, and Behavior and Society Working Groups\, in partnership with the Regional Studies Association (RSA) invite students\, early scholars and all members to join the Webinar Series on Regional Inequalities and Perceived Left-Behindness. \n  \nThe objective is to explore the growing relevance of perceived left-behindness and subjective well-being in economics. Over four sessions\, we will delve into how feelings of relative deprivation\, spatial inequalities\, and socio-economic discontent are reshaping regional trajectories and influencing economic outcomes. By bringing together scholars working at the intersection of perception\, well-being\, and place\, the series aims to foster a deeper understanding of how these dimensions can enrich regional analysis\, inform policy\, and ultimately contribute to more inclusive territorial development. \n  \n4) November 12\, 2025 (15:00-16:00 CEST) – Policy\, Perception and Place: Rethinking Regional Development Strategies (Malin Roiha & Emma Fàbrega – European Social Research Unit & University of Barcelona\, Spain) \nConcluding the series\, this webinar will focus on how subjective indicators and local perceptions can be better integrated into policy-making. We’ll explore innovative approaches and the challenges of designing place-sensitive strategies that address both material and perceived inequalities. \n  \nPrevious sessions: \n  \n1) July 16\, 2025 (15:00-16:00 CEST) – Subjective well-being and spatial inequalities (Paolo Veneri – GSSI\, Italy) \nThe literature from the last decade has highlighted the paradox of urban well-being\, where cities offer economic advantages at a cost to residents’ life satisfaction. However\, this is not true everywhere. This webinar focuses on subjective well-being spatial differences and on the factors driving those differences. After accounting for observable individual characteristics\, evidence on the urban-rural gap in life satisfaction is provided across different world regions\, together with the factors associated with such gaps. Subsequently\, focusing on European cities\, we review how individual and city characteristics drive observed differences in life satisfaction\, drawing on novel empirical analysis and on the most recent contributions in the literature. \n  \n2) September 16\, 2025 (15:00-16:00 CEST) – Spatial imaginaries of ‘left behind places’ in policy discourse (Grete Gansauer – University of Wyoming\, US) \nThe “left behind place” is an emerging spatial imaginary which evokes an idealized set of social\, economic and political conditions assigned to a generalized type of place. This session will untangle how left-behindness is imagined and explore how spatial imaginaries manifest themselves in different regional and political discources. We’ll examine the roots of such perceptions\, their links to territorial inequalities\, and offer empirical insights into how spatial imaginaries of ‘left behind places’ shape regional development trajectories. \n  \n3) October 15\, 2025 (15:00-16:00 CEST) – Electoral outcomes as a form of discontent (Arndt Leininger – Chemnitz University of Technology\, Germany) \nThis session explores how electoral results can reflect underlying socio-economic and territorial discontent. Drawing on recent research\, the discussion will examine how votes for populist\, extremist\, or anti-establishment parties often signal perceived inequalities\, loss of status\, and a sense of being “left behind” among certain groups and regions. \n

SUMMARY:Money View Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Money View Reading Group reads and discusses writings on money\, banking\, and finance. We are a self-directed group. Anyone interested in money and banking can read the readings\, join us for discussions\, or suggest future readings. \nWe meet for 90 minutes via Zoom on Mondays at 2 pm Eastern Time US (New York). \n\nCurrent Book\n\n\nHow a Ledger Became a Central Bank: A Monetary History of the Bank of Amsterdam by Stephen Quinn & William Roberds (2023)\n\nhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1108706150/ \nFrom the description \nBefore the US Federal Reserve and the Bank of England\, the Bank of Amsterdam (‘Bank’) was a dominant central bank with a global impact on money and credit. How a Ledger Became a Central Bank draws on extensive archival data and rich secondary literature\, to offer a new and detailed portrait of this historically significant institution. It describes how the Bank struggled to manage its money before hitting a modern solution: fiat money in combination with a repurchase facility and discretionary open market operations. It describes techniques the Bank used to monitor and stabilize money stock\, and how foreign sovereigns could exploit the liquidity of the Bank for state finance. Closing with a discussion of commonalities of the Bank of Amsterdam with later central banks\, including the Federal Reserve\, this book has generated a great deal of excitement among scholars of central banking and the role of money in the macroeconomy. \nWe will discuss this book across three sessions. \n\n2026-09-14 — Discussion Session 1 (Chapters 1–3) (Recording)\n\n\nUpcoming Sessions\n\n\n2026-09-21 – 2:00pm EDT\n\nDuring the off week\, we discuss the 2023 BIS Working Paper 1065 “The Bank of Amsterdam and the limits of fiat money\,” by Wilko Bolt\, Jon Frost\, Hyun Song Shin and Peter Wierts \nhttps://www.bis.org/publications/working-paper-1065-bank-amsterdam-and-limits-fiat-money \nFrom the description: \nCentral banks can operate with negative equity\, and many have done so in history without undermining trust in fiat money. However\, there are limits. How negative can central bank equity be before fiat money loses credibility? We address this question using a global game approach motivated by the fall of the Bank of Amsterdam (1609–1820). We solve for the unique break point where negative equity and asset illiquidity render fiat money worthless. We draw lessons on the role of fiscal support and central bank capital in sustaining trust in fiat money. \n\n2026-09-28 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nWe discuss Chapters 4–6 of How a Ledger Became a Central Bank. \nChapter 4: First Steps\, 1609–1659 \n\n4.1 Debasement\n4.2 The Fed That Wasn’t\n4.3 Displacement\n4.4 Replacement\n4.5 Agio Anchor\n4.6 Conclusion\n\nChapter 5: Emergence of the Receipt System\, 1660–1710 \n\n5.1 Yet Another New Local Coinage System\n5.2 Deposits\n5.3 Receipts\n5.4 The End of Withdrawal\n5.5 Expansion\n5.6 Political Economy\n5.7 Conclusion\nA.5 Additional Details of Receipts and Master Account Credits\n\nChapter 6: Metal in Motion: The Mechanics of Receipts \n\n6.1 Transformations: 1711–1736\n6.2 Flows under Receipt\n6.3 Economics of Receipts\n6.4 Comparisons with Modern Repos\n6.5 Receipts within the Monetary System\n6.6 Instability\n6.7 Conclusion\nA.6 Categorization of Metal within the Bank\n\n\n2026-10-12 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nWe discuss Chapters 7–9 of How a Ledger Became a Central Bank. \nChapter 7: Two Banks and One Money\, 1711–1791 \n\n7.1 The Rest of the Story\n7.2 Strength through Unity\n7.3 Operations\n7.4 Monetary Control\n7.5 Loss of Control\n7.6 Safe Asset\n7.7 Conclusion\n\nChapter 8: Prussia’s Debasement during the Seven Years War: The Role of the Bank \n\n8.1 Beating the Dutch at Their Own Game\n8.2 A Change of Tactics\n8.3 War Finance\n8.4 Entrepreneurs’ Activity in Amsterdam\n8.5 Amsterdam and Prussia’s Gold Coinage\n8.6 The Great Unwind\n8.7 The Challenges of Reinforcement\n8.8 Conclusion\n\nChapter 9: The Bank’s Place in Central Bank History \n\n9.1 From Then to Now\n9.2 Creative Destruction\n9.3 The Two-Bank Solution\n9.4 Monetary Maps: 1750 and 1900\n9.5 The Once and Future Bank\n\n\nFuture Suggested Readings\n\n\nThe Almighty Dollar: 500 Years of the World’s Most Powerful Money by Brendan Greeley (2026)\nWell Worth Saving: How the New Deal Safeguarded Home Ownership by Fishback\, Rose\, and Snowden (2013)\nSlapped by the Invisible Hand: The Panic of 2007 by Gary Gorton (2010)\nThe House of Morgan by Ron Chernow (1990)\nA Study of Money Flows in the United States by Morris Copeland (1952)\nA History of the Greenbacks by Wesley Clair Mitchell (1903)\nCalming the Storms: The Carry Trade\, the Banking School and British Financial Crises Since 1825 by Charles Read (2023)\nBenjamin Strong: Central Banker by Lester V.

SUMMARY:YSI @ 6th International Workshop On Demand-Led Growth: The green and demographic transitions
DESCRIPTION:The Keynesian and Latin America Working groups are happy to invite you to submit papers for the 6th International Workshop on Demand-Led Growth\, which will take place between July 14th and 17th 2025 in Rio de Janeiro\, Brazil. \nThis year’s theme\, “The green and demographic transitions”\, is particularly relevant since sustainable development and the environmental implications of economic development have attracted increasing attention in the economic and policy debate. Particularly in relation to issues such as climate change\, resource depletion\, renewable energy\, and loss of biodiversity. \nThere is growing recognition that economic development must address environmental damage in order to achieve long-term sustainability by reducing carbon footprints\, promoting renewable energy and the responsible use of natural resources. In response\, governments and institutions are increasingly adopting green economic practices. At the same time\, there have been major demographic shifts in both advanced and developing countries. \nConventional economics frequently associates the green transition with market-driven policies\, incentives\, and the removal of so-called “interventionist distortions\,” while addressing the demographic transition through austerity measures. In contrast\, alternative approaches seek to integrate green and demographic transitions with demand-led growth\, emphasizing the development and coordination of public policies and the provision of public goods. \nTo explore these alternative perspectives\, we invite articles broadly addressing the following topics: \n • Demand-led growth and sustainable development;\n• Fiscal policy for the green transition;\n• Green finance and the role of central banks;\n• Climate change and the analysis of the decarbonization of the economy;\n• Input-output analysis of the green transition and structural change;\n• Carbon markets and taxation in demand-led growth models;\n• Demographic transition from a demand-led growth perspective. \nAll papers must be in English and include a title\, concise abstract (maximum 200 words)\, author’s name\, institutional affiliation\, and email address. We suggest that submitted papers adhere to a maximum word limit of 8000 words. \nIf your work is selected\, you will be invited to present at the event which is scheduled to occur from July 14 to 17. Selections will be based on merit\, and those chosen can expect to receive accommodation and a partial travel stipend. \n\n\n\n\nApply here for YSI support \nDeadline: 15th April 2025 \nAnd don’t forget to submit the paper to the conference’s website.

SUMMARY:2nd Edition of The Political Economy of Ecological Change and Economic Security in the Global South
DESCRIPTION:2nd Edition of The Political Economy of Ecological Change and Economic Security in the Global South \nThe urgency of the climate crisis cannot be overstated\, particularly given its disproportionate impact on vulnerable communities in the Global South. As climate change accelerates\, these communities face extraordinary challenges threatening their ecological stability\, economic security\, and fundamental human rights. Understanding these issues requires a nuanced exploration of the intricate political economy within these countries. Contrary to the misconception of uniformity in production conditions and development trajectories\, regional and local ecological specificities across the Global South have shaped distinct forms of livelihoods and resource management systems\, particularly in South and Southeast Asia. \nThe ongoing climate crisis has wreaked havoc on these livelihoods\, exacerbating vulnerabilities and deepening existing inequalities. The most disadvantaged communities are facing the gravest impacts\, which pose a threat not only to ecological balance and economic stability but also to human security. The paradox facing the Global South is that\, despite following different path-dependencies and minimal historical responsibility for ecological change\, they find themselves disproportionately affected and often less equipped to mitigate its impacts. This paradox heightens concerns over economic security\, as nations must divert limited resources from essential sectors towards adaptation and mitigation efforts. \nEven though global actions to restrict warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels have been inadequate\, the Global South has become a centre for creative and cooperative efforts\, both among its nations and in collaboration with the Global North. Often backed by state actors\, grassroots movements\, and indigenous methodologies\, these initiatives seek to address the complexities of ecological change and economic security. This is particularly true for South and Southeast Asia\, where local ecological practices\, democratic urban planning\, gender empowerment\, and land governance are shaping the way forward. \nThe solutions to these challenges may involve a blend of diverse approaches that ensure equitable resource distribution\, resilience building\, financial instruments and sustainable economic development\, all while focusing on regional specificities. \nAgainst this backdrop\, we invite advanced doctoral students\, postdoctoral scholars\, and early career researchers to a three-day interdisciplinary conference\, with particular attention to South Asia and Southeast Asia\, to explore the following themes: \n\nSustainability and Resilience: Analyse the interconnectedness of ecological\, economic\, and demographic resilience\, focusing on how communities in South and Southeast Asia navigate ecological change and respond to its differential impacts\, including\, but not limited to\, the food production and consumption system\, urban and rural planning system\, disaster management\, management of flora and fauna\, and economic security.\nHuman-Environmental Interactions: Investigate the complex relationships between humans and their environments\, emphasising innovative approaches that incorporate indigenous and local knowledge to address ecological and economic security. Examples may involve but not restricted to practices such as community-led reforestation\, traditional water conservation\, sustainable fishing techniques\, and habitat restoration.\nLabour\, Climate Refugees\, and Ecological Change: Examine the linkages between ecological change and migration patterns\, particularly the implications for labour markets\, livelihoods\, and economic adaptation in the Global South. This could involve understanding climate-induced displacement\, shifts in labour market dynamics\, challenges within the informal sector\, and the redistribution of economic activities due to environmental changes.\nAI\, Economic Security\, and Ecological Change: Explore the role of artificial intelligence in predicting\, mitigating\, and managing the effects of ecological change\, particularly in the context of ecological resilience and economic security. Applications might include AI-driven early warning systems\, advanced climate modelling\, agriculture management\, and optimising energy use in rural and urban areas.\nEcological Change\, Social Security\, and Social Protection: Examine the impacts of ecological change on social security\, social protection and insurance systems\, focusing on the development of social protection and insurance mechanisms to address vulnerabilities and inequalities. This can be seen in initiatives like climate-related insurance\, healthcare schemes\, welfare programs for climate refugees\, disaster relief systems\, and social safety nets designed to protect at-risk communities.\nEcological Change and Legal Reform: Assess the legal reforms required to meet new demands for social security\, individual rights\, responsibilities\, and regulations in response to climate-related challenges. Potential areas of reform include land tenure adjustments\, environmental justice frameworks\, legal provisions for climate compensation\, and regulatory changes aimed at fostering climate adaptation.\nEcological Change and Financial Instruments: Examine financial instruments\, such as bonds or climate funds\, that are essential for supporting resilient initiatives and long-term sustainability efforts. Submissions under this theme may include green bonds\, carbon pricing strategies\, climate adaptation funding\, and investment in renewable energy infrastructure.\n\nWe encourage submissions that critically engage with theoretical frameworks\, offer new methodological approaches\, or present novel empirical findings relevant to these themes. \nAbstract Submission Guidelines: \nSubmit an extended abstract of up to 1\,000 words. The extended abstract should clearly align with one of the above themes and include theoretical considerations\, research questions\, methodology\, and preliminary findings. \nEligible participants include PhD scholars in the final stages of their research\, postdoctoral fellows\, and those within seven years of completing their PhD. \nFinancial Support: \nA limited number of travel and accommodation stipends are available for young scholars in the final year of their PhD and within seven years of completing their PhD. \nImportant Dates: \n\nCall for abstract closed: January 31st\, 2025\nNotification to the selection abstracts: February 15th\, 2025\nFull Paper Submission Deadline: May 15\, 2025\nNotification of Final Acceptance: May 25\, 2025\nConference Dates: July 14-16\, 2025\n\nFor any further information\, please contact us at southasia@youngscholarsinitiative.org \nOrganising Team \n\nSunanda Nair-Bidkar\, INET\nRekha Bhangaonkar and Shailaja Fennell\, University of Cambridge

SUMMARY:Transformative Cooperative Law Research: Early Career Researchers Agenda and Priorities for and Post 2025
DESCRIPTION:The problems of restrictive\, non-conducive and fragmented cooperative policies and legal frameworks have\, for a long time\, been reported in most developing countries. These have\, in one way or the other\, affected cooperative enterprises operations and ultimately sustainability. Laws\, in some countries\, have existed for a long time without any substantive changes. Besides\, the role of cooperative law research as a driving force for solutions for these problems has not been sufficiently explored. Significantly\, the nexus between cooperative law studies and human socio-economic needs pointed out in the United Nations Agenda for Sustainable Development 2030 is unsatisfactorily underlined. It is hard\, today\, for example in some Anglophone African countries\, because of existing restrictive and static cooperative laws\, to establish cooperatives that can engage into clean energy harnessing\, natural resources preservation\, online service provision (platform cooperatives)\, as well as professional services. This is notwithstanding the two times specific reference to cooperatives as important private sector actors in realisation of UN Sustainable Development Goals. The Globe has neither been into a serious discussion on role of cooperative law research for sustainable cooperative operations and ultimately members’ livelihood nor has it set agenda for cooperative law research and priority areas. It is on the basis of the issues aforementioned that the Panel is thought of and considered timely and imperative. The Panel seeks to deliberate on cooperative law research agenda and priorities for 2025 and beyond. It targets agenda and priorities that can be utilised by\, inter alia\, early career researchers in pursuit of cooperative enterprises transformative change for justice\, sustainability\, and prosperity. It is a forum where cooperative law researchers can dwell into the identification of cooperative law research agenda for developed and developing countries and respective priority areas. The discussion will uniquely focus on transformative cooperative law research divulging priority areas for 2025 and after. Discussions will include cooperative law research issues and priorities\, areas for transformation and priorities\, implementation and monitoring strategies. The Panel will ultimately come up with transformative cooperative law research agenda and their priorities. These will be used as means to strengthening existing legal environment and creating conducive ones. It is proposed to be held in the year 2025 which has been declared by the United Nations as the International Year of Cooperatives alongside the ICA Global Research Conference scheduled to take place in Montreal\, Canada between 8-11 July 2025. The ICA Global Research Conference is an important avenue for early career researchers to harness best practices and emerging areas for cooperative research from deliberations with prominent cooperative researchers and practitioners. The ICA Global Research Conference emphasise on the importance of inter-cooperation in driving transformative change for justice\, sustainability\, and prosperity. The diverse and pervasive research themes selected offers vast opportunity for early career researchers to learn and subsequently join hands and minds in addressing common issues generally against mankind and specifically against all types of cooperatives and their members. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Money as if Finance Mattered 2
DESCRIPTION:Approaches to money and finance in economics typically discount core dynamics: monetary models often abstract from finance (e.g.\, monetarist or new Keynesian)\, while financial models tend to ignore the temporal and structural role of money (e.g.\, Wicksellian traditions). When money is addressed\, it is frequently framed in narrowly domestic terms that privilege fiat authority while overlooking international constraints—or\, conversely\, in global terms that neglect the institutional capacities of governments and banking systems. \nIn this context\, Money as if Finance Mattered workshop series focuses on developing a credit money approach that moves away from representative agent models and sectoral aggregates toward modeling a liquidity based hierarchy of dynamic\, time-indexed balance sheets\, positioned within interlocking relations dominated by settlement constraint.

SUMMARY:YSI Day @ EPOG 2025
DESCRIPTION:EPOG (Economic POlicies for the Global transition) is a master’s programme created in 2012 with the support of the European Commission under the Erasmus Mundus Master’s Course label. Over the past decade\, it has trained more than 300 outstanding students in political economy\, emphasizing critical and institutionalist approaches. \nFollowing the success of the YSI-day at the 2024 EPOG Conference in Marseille\, we aim to continue this initiative at the 2025 conference in Venice. The event will bring together approximately 50 graduating students from EPOG 2 and EPOG+\, alongside over 30 alumni\, faculty members\, partners\, and invited guests. The YSI-day will introduce YSI to the new cohorts and facilitate collaboration between EPOG alumni and YSI working groups. Through interactive sessions\, participants will develop project proposals for the 2025/2026 academic year\, fostering long-term engagement between the EPOG community and YSI. \nCurrently\, EPOG comprises two master’s programmes\, EPOG 2 and EPOG+. The latter\, recognized as a programme of excellence by the European Commission (Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree)\, is coordinated by the University of Compiègne\, in partnership with Sorbonne University\, University Paris Cité\, University of Turin\, Berlin School of Economics and Law\, University Rome 3\, Vienna University of Economics and Business\, and the University of the Witwatersrand. Additionally\, EPOG collaborates with over 30 academic and non-academic partners worldwide\, including INET\, where many YSI members and EPOG alumni are actively involved. \nBy strengthening these connections\, the YSI-day at the EPOG Conference 2025 will further integrate young scholars into YSI’s global network\, fostering interdisciplinary research and innovative approaches to economic policy.

SUMMARY:Money View Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Money View Reading Group reads and discusses writings on money\, banking\, and finance. We are a self-directed group. Anyone interested in money and banking can read the readings\, join us for discussions\, or suggest future readings. \nWe meet for 90 minutes via Zoom on Mondays at 2 pm Eastern Time US (New York). \n\nCurrent Book\n\n\nHow a Ledger Became a Central Bank: A Monetary History of the Bank of Amsterdam by Stephen Quinn & William Roberds (2023)\n\nhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1108706150/ \nFrom the description \nBefore the US Federal Reserve and the Bank of England\, the Bank of Amsterdam (‘Bank’) was a dominant central bank with a global impact on money and credit. How a Ledger Became a Central Bank draws on extensive archival data and rich secondary literature\, to offer a new and detailed portrait of this historically significant institution. It describes how the Bank struggled to manage its money before hitting a modern solution: fiat money in combination with a repurchase facility and discretionary open market operations. It describes techniques the Bank used to monitor and stabilize money stock\, and how foreign sovereigns could exploit the liquidity of the Bank for state finance. Closing with a discussion of commonalities of the Bank of Amsterdam with later central banks\, including the Federal Reserve\, this book has generated a great deal of excitement among scholars of central banking and the role of money in the macroeconomy. \nWe will discuss this book across three sessions. \n\n2026-09-14 — Discussion Session 1 (Chapters 1–3) (Recording)\n\n\nUpcoming Sessions\n\n\n2026-09-21 – 2:00pm EDT\n\nDuring the off week\, we discuss the 2023 BIS Working Paper 1065 “The Bank of Amsterdam and the limits of fiat money\,” by Wilko Bolt\, Jon Frost\, Hyun Song Shin and Peter Wierts \nhttps://www.bis.org/publications/working-paper-1065-bank-amsterdam-and-limits-fiat-money \nFrom the description: \nCentral banks can operate with negative equity\, and many have done so in history without undermining trust in fiat money. However\, there are limits. How negative can central bank equity be before fiat money loses credibility? We address this question using a global game approach motivated by the fall of the Bank of Amsterdam (1609–1820). We solve for the unique break point where negative equity and asset illiquidity render fiat money worthless. We draw lessons on the role of fiscal support and central bank capital in sustaining trust in fiat money. \n\n2026-09-28 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nWe discuss Chapters 4–6 of How a Ledger Became a Central Bank. \nChapter 4: First Steps\, 1609–1659 \n\n4.1 Debasement\n4.2 The Fed That Wasn’t\n4.3 Displacement\n4.4 Replacement\n4.5 Agio Anchor\n4.6 Conclusion\n\nChapter 5: Emergence of the Receipt System\, 1660–1710 \n\n5.1 Yet Another New Local Coinage System\n5.2 Deposits\n5.3 Receipts\n5.4 The End of Withdrawal\n5.5 Expansion\n5.6 Political Economy\n5.7 Conclusion\nA.5 Additional Details of Receipts and Master Account Credits\n\nChapter 6: Metal in Motion: The Mechanics of Receipts \n\n6.1 Transformations: 1711–1736\n6.2 Flows under Receipt\n6.3 Economics of Receipts\n6.4 Comparisons with Modern Repos\n6.5 Receipts within the Monetary System\n6.6 Instability\n6.7 Conclusion\nA.6 Categorization of Metal within the Bank\n\n\n2026-10-12 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nWe discuss Chapters 7–9 of How a Ledger Became a Central Bank. \nChapter 7: Two Banks and One Money\, 1711–1791 \n\n7.1 The Rest of the Story\n7.2 Strength through Unity\n7.3 Operations\n7.4 Monetary Control\n7.5 Loss of Control\n7.6 Safe Asset\n7.7 Conclusion\n\nChapter 8: Prussia’s Debasement during the Seven Years War: The Role of the Bank \n\n8.1 Beating the Dutch at Their Own Game\n8.2 A Change of Tactics\n8.3 War Finance\n8.4 Entrepreneurs’ Activity in Amsterdam\n8.5 Amsterdam and Prussia’s Gold Coinage\n8.6 The Great Unwind\n8.7 The Challenges of Reinforcement\n8.8 Conclusion\n\nChapter 9: The Bank’s Place in Central Bank History \n\n9.1 From Then to Now\n9.2 Creative Destruction\n9.3 The Two-Bank Solution\n9.4 Monetary Maps: 1750 and 1900\n9.5 The Once and Future Bank\n\n\nFuture Suggested Readings\n\n\nThe Almighty Dollar: 500 Years of the World’s Most Powerful Money by Brendan Greeley (2026)\nWell Worth Saving: How the New Deal Safeguarded Home Ownership by Fishback\, Rose\, and Snowden (2013)\nSlapped by the Invisible Hand: The Panic of 2007 by Gary Gorton (2010)\nThe House of Morgan by Ron Chernow (1990)\nA Study of Money Flows in the United States by Morris Copeland (1952)\nA History of the Greenbacks by Wesley Clair Mitchell (1903)\nCalming the Storms: The Carry Trade\, the Banking School and British Financial Crises Since 1825 by Charles Read (2023)\nBenjamin Strong: Central Banker by Lester V.

SUMMARY:Decolonizing our Imaginaries: Critical Approaches to Cooperative Studies
DESCRIPTION:Introduction \nIn 2025\, the international cooperative community will celebrate a special milestone as it designates the second International Year of Cooperatives in less than 20 years. This unique designation highlights cooperatives’ pivotal role in promoting socio-economic development\, sustainability\, and community resilience worldwide. The ICA CCR Young and Emerging Scholars (YES) Network\, together with the working group on Cooperatives from the Young Scholar Initiative (YSI) of the Institute for New Economic Thinking (INET) and in collaboration with HEC University of Montreal\, would like to organize a workshop dedicated to empower early career researchers in the field of cooperatives by providing them with valuable insights and opportunities to present their research\, network with other peers\, and showcase their work. \nThe field of cooperative research is growing in prominence\, taking on increased urgency as we seek to address the challenges posed by traditional scholarly narratives\, such as in economics\, management\, agriculture\, climate studies\, and\, more broadly\, social sciences. However\, in different sectorial departments\, it is still challenging to make cooperative scholars’ voices heard and valorize them. Within this context\, the workshop can empower and connect emergent scholars who grapple with the complexities of conducting research in this expanding domain. \nYoung Scholars will gather for an informal dinner on the evening of Sunday\, July 6th at the social cooperative Batiment 7\, where a guided tour of the cooperative and a discussion with its member will start immersing young and emerging scholars into the cooperative spirit. \n  \nThe workshop will take place on July 7th. The central theme of the workshop is decolonizing cooperatives\, addressing historical inequalities\, and empowering marginalized communities. Special guests\, such as Prof. Marcelo Vieta and Prof Simon Teasdale will offer valuable perspectives and insights on this topic\, enriching the discussion and inspiring future research endeavors. The focus will be on new radical and innovative ways of thinking about cooperatives\, how can coop support improving sustainability standards\, the definition of economic and political democracy and the role of cooperatives in pushing democracy. We will focus on how to decolonize our language when we do research on cooperative.

SUMMARY:Methodological Pluralism in Critical Finance Research (3-4 July 2025)
DESCRIPTION:After a decade and a half of rapid expansion under the shadow of the 2008 crisis\, critical finance scholarship has developed a remarkably pluralist research agenda. Topics range from financial hegemony to subordination\, from sustainable to digital finance\, from asset managers to hedge funds\, from central to shadow banking\, and more. Scholars have studied the transatlantic core of global finance as well as its manifestations in developing and emerging markets\, international and comparative dimensions of finance\, the actions of financial elites and processes of everyday financialisation. As research topics have multiplied\, so have research methodologies. Current works draw on a wide range of different sources from large commercial data to experiments\, from public archives to digital records\, from expert interviews to field notes\, and more. Scholars use numerous tools to generate insights from these sources and a wide range of different approaches to interpret them effectively. \nOn 3-4 July 2025\, this conference seeks to explicitly engage with and foster a conversation about this methodological pluralism. It invites scholars to reflect on their own research practices\, exchange ideas about different sources\, tools\, and approaches\, and to discuss their unique contribution to our collective understanding of global finance and financialised capitalism. Our aim is to showcase a wide range of empirical sources and analytical tools\, and to discuss the unique challenges and opportunities they provide. \nTopics and focus \nTo that end\, we invite interested researchers to present papers – both published and unpublished – that can spark a conversation about methodological challenges and opportunities in the critical study of global finance. This may include papers with a primary focus on method but conventional research papers are also welcome. In both cases\, we ask authors to discuss the methods that were applied to studying finance. \nFor example\, we are interested in how scholars use the following data sources and methods in their research: \nAI tools / archives / audio-visual data / balance sheets / behavioural experiments / company reports / descriptive statistics / data terminals / digital methods / expert interviews / field notes / financial accounts / focus groups / grey literature / industry events / network analysis / legal analysis / newspapers / policy documents / participant observation / public speeches / satellite data / social media / spatial data / survey data / visualisations / web scraping \nThe conference will feature a keynote lecture by Dariusz Wójcik\, Professor of Financial Geography at the National University of Singapore (NUS) and author of the recently published ‘Atlas of Finance‘ (Yale University Press\, 2024). \nSubmissions \nPlease submit a short abstract (300 words) which clearly indicates the empirical sources and/or methodological tools that will be discussed. Please send your abstracts by 15 February 2025 to globalfinancemethods@gmail.com \nFunds are available to support travel expenses for a number of unfunded early career scholars. If you would like to apply for financial assistance\, please indicate this in a brief statement when submitting your abstract. \n  \nImportant dates \n\nPlease submit your abstract by: 15 February 2025\nNotifications of acceptance by: 15 March 2025\nRegistration due: 15 April 2025\nPapers due: 15 June 2025\nConference dates: 3-4 July 2025

SUMMARY:YSI @ IAFFE 2025 Pre-Conference
DESCRIPTION:Poster Session “Social Justice through Solidarity: Cultivating solidarity within feminist economics” \nThe 2025 IAFFE Pre-Conference will take place on July-2 before the Conference (from July-3 to July-5) at the University of Massachusetts – Amherst\, United States. The theme of the 2025 IAFFE Annual Conference “Social Justice through Solidarity: Cultivating solidarity within feminist economics” encourages us to build on the possibilities implied by thinking about solidarity:  \n\nWhy is solidarity important in the work of feminist economists? \nWhat’s the relationship between solidarity and concepts like intersectionality or coalition-building? \nHow can we contribute to redressing historical injustices (e.g. slavery\, genocides\, or colonialism)?  \nWhat are the dynamics that get in the way of solidarity\, and how can feminist economists help overcome those barriers? \nWhat would a feminist economics lens add to the analysis of the solidarity economy? \nHow can feminist economists incorporate insights from the work on the commons\, cooperatives\, social profitability\, or mutual aid\, for instance\, especially drawing on the work of women of color\, Indigenous women\, and women from the Global South? \nHow does solidarity scale at the macroeconomic level? How does taking solidarity into account change the way we think about microeconomic interactions?\n\n  \nThis YSI Gender and Economics Working Group Poster Session is designed to provide an opportunity for young scholars to present their work (in diverse formats and states: papers\, drafts and  work in progress document;  videos\, podcast\, etc) and discuss it among peers in a forum which brings together young and senior feminist scholars from around the world.  \n  \nWe invite all young researchers who might be interested in presenting a contribution to apply by submitting an abstract (300 words max)\, describe how it relates to the conference theme and share your motivation for participating.  \nWe seek to generate intergenerational\, interdisciplinary and interregional networks to share lessons learned about how we might use solidarity to advance social justice through feminist economics. With that in mind we welcome contributions from scholars of different disciplines and young economists with diverse career paths in advocacy and policy making dealing with the above questions in their academic development.  \nParticipants will have the chance to present their work in a poster during the pre-conference.  \nAs this is an in-person only event and\, to encourage young scholars and early careers participation\, some selected participants\, prioritizing those based in the region\, could be eligible for financial support for travel and accommodation during the conference. Please indicate the need for funding in the application. Note that acceptance of a proposal does not imply a funding commitment and that the stipends could only be used for travel expenses but do not cover the registration fees that each participant should afford on their own.

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.

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:Money View Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Money View Reading Group reads and discusses writings on money\, banking\, and finance. We are a self-directed group. Anyone interested in money and banking can read the readings\, join us for discussions\, or suggest future readings. \nWe meet for 90 minutes via Zoom on Mondays at 2 pm Eastern Time US (New York). \n\nCurrent Book\n\n\nHow a Ledger Became a Central Bank: A Monetary History of the Bank of Amsterdam by Stephen Quinn & William Roberds (2023)\n\nhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1108706150/ \nFrom the description \nBefore the US Federal Reserve and the Bank of England\, the Bank of Amsterdam (‘Bank’) was a dominant central bank with a global impact on money and credit. How a Ledger Became a Central Bank draws on extensive archival data and rich secondary literature\, to offer a new and detailed portrait of this historically significant institution. It describes how the Bank struggled to manage its money before hitting a modern solution: fiat money in combination with a repurchase facility and discretionary open market operations. It describes techniques the Bank used to monitor and stabilize money stock\, and how foreign sovereigns could exploit the liquidity of the Bank for state finance. Closing with a discussion of commonalities of the Bank of Amsterdam with later central banks\, including the Federal Reserve\, this book has generated a great deal of excitement among scholars of central banking and the role of money in the macroeconomy. \nWe will discuss this book across three sessions. \n\n2026-09-14 — Discussion Session 1 (Chapters 1–3) (Recording)\n\n\nUpcoming Sessions\n\n\n2026-09-21 – 2:00pm EDT\n\nDuring the off week\, we discuss the 2023 BIS Working Paper 1065 “The Bank of Amsterdam and the limits of fiat money\,” by Wilko Bolt\, Jon Frost\, Hyun Song Shin and Peter Wierts \nhttps://www.bis.org/publications/working-paper-1065-bank-amsterdam-and-limits-fiat-money \nFrom the description: \nCentral banks can operate with negative equity\, and many have done so in history without undermining trust in fiat money. However\, there are limits. How negative can central bank equity be before fiat money loses credibility? We address this question using a global game approach motivated by the fall of the Bank of Amsterdam (1609–1820). We solve for the unique break point where negative equity and asset illiquidity render fiat money worthless. We draw lessons on the role of fiscal support and central bank capital in sustaining trust in fiat money. \n\n2026-09-28 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nWe discuss Chapters 4–6 of How a Ledger Became a Central Bank. \nChapter 4: First Steps\, 1609–1659 \n\n4.1 Debasement\n4.2 The Fed That Wasn’t\n4.3 Displacement\n4.4 Replacement\n4.5 Agio Anchor\n4.6 Conclusion\n\nChapter 5: Emergence of the Receipt System\, 1660–1710 \n\n5.1 Yet Another New Local Coinage System\n5.2 Deposits\n5.3 Receipts\n5.4 The End of Withdrawal\n5.5 Expansion\n5.6 Political Economy\n5.7 Conclusion\nA.5 Additional Details of Receipts and Master Account Credits\n\nChapter 6: Metal in Motion: The Mechanics of Receipts \n\n6.1 Transformations: 1711–1736\n6.2 Flows under Receipt\n6.3 Economics of Receipts\n6.4 Comparisons with Modern Repos\n6.5 Receipts within the Monetary System\n6.6 Instability\n6.7 Conclusion\nA.6 Categorization of Metal within the Bank\n\n\n2026-10-12 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nWe discuss Chapters 7–9 of How a Ledger Became a Central Bank. \nChapter 7: Two Banks and One Money\, 1711–1791 \n\n7.1 The Rest of the Story\n7.2 Strength through Unity\n7.3 Operations\n7.4 Monetary Control\n7.5 Loss of Control\n7.6 Safe Asset\n7.7 Conclusion\n\nChapter 8: Prussia’s Debasement during the Seven Years War: The Role of the Bank \n\n8.1 Beating the Dutch at Their Own Game\n8.2 A Change of Tactics\n8.3 War Finance\n8.4 Entrepreneurs’ Activity in Amsterdam\n8.5 Amsterdam and Prussia’s Gold Coinage\n8.6 The Great Unwind\n8.7 The Challenges of Reinforcement\n8.8 Conclusion\n\nChapter 9: The Bank’s Place in Central Bank History \n\n9.1 From Then to Now\n9.2 Creative Destruction\n9.3 The Two-Bank Solution\n9.4 Monetary Maps: 1750 and 1900\n9.5 The Once and Future Bank\n\n\nFuture Suggested Readings\n\n\nThe Almighty Dollar: 500 Years of the World’s Most Powerful Money by Brendan Greeley (2026)\nWell Worth Saving: How the New Deal Safeguarded Home Ownership by Fishback\, Rose\, and Snowden (2013)\nSlapped by the Invisible Hand: The Panic of 2007 by Gary Gorton (2010)\nThe House of Morgan by Ron Chernow (1990)\nA Study of Money Flows in the United States by Morris Copeland (1952)\nA History of the Greenbacks by Wesley Clair Mitchell (1903)\nCalming the Storms: The Carry Trade\, the Banking School and British Financial Crises Since 1825 by Charles Read (2023)\nBenjamin Strong: Central Banker by Lester V.

SUMMARY:YSI ft. Degrowth Cabaret @ ISEE-Degrowth conference 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Degrowth Cabaret is a performative and participatory event that invites conference participants and local audiences to engage with degrowth imaginaries in a vibrant\, unconventional format. Rather than offering another lecture or panel\, this will be a shared stage where young scholars\, activists\, artists (both professional and amateur)\, and creative producers co-create a unique cabaret performance that reflects\, questions\, and plays with the themes of post-growth futures—sufficiency\, care\, decoloniality\, and utopia\, among others. \nThis will be the first cabaret of its kind: an artistic intervention within the degrowth movement that challenges the boundaries between academia\, activism\, and art. Blending theatre\, music\, dance\, storytelling\, satire\, and experimental formats—including performance-lectures and physical theatre—it is not just a show\, but an invitation to co-create\, co-learn\, and imagine together. The Cabaret foregrounds critical joy\, embodiment\, and collective creativity as tools for socio-ecological transformation\, offering new ways of feeling and acting upon economic alternatives. \nThe Degrowth Cabaret is a hybrid event that combines performance\, critical dialogue\, and collective creation to explore the pressing questions of degrowth and socio-ecological transformation. It will premiere during the ISEE – Degrowth Conference 2025 in Oslo\, blending artistic expression\, academic insight\, and public participation into a unique format that invites audiences to imagine futures beyond the growth imperative. \nYSI emerged in response to the 2008 crisis\, as a space to incorporate new and critical voices into the conversation about our economic systems. We want to take that mission one step further by inviting young degrowth artivists to join us not only through theory and analysis\, but also through artistic\, embodied\, and collaborative forms of expression. \nThe Degrowth Cabaret opens doors to new audiences. It creates a bridge between young scholars and artists\, activists\, and creative practitioners who may have thought YSI was not for them—either because they don’t have formal academic training or because they express their insights in non-traditional ways. These are people equally invested in the socio-ecological transformation we seek\, but who speak a different language. With this project\, we aim to build a new shared language—playful\, critical\, and inclusive. \nBy creating space for experimentation\, imagination\, and radical collaboration\, the Degrowth Cabaret fosters new kinds of interdisciplinary dialogues and new ways of “doing knowledge.” In that sense\, it directly contributes to the YSI mission of pluralizing economics and nurturing a new generation of thinkers and doers. It helps expand the YSI network into territories that are both intellectually and socially vital.

SUMMARY:YSI Experimental Panel @DSA2025: Interdisciplinary Workshop on Institutions and Development
DESCRIPTION:In October 2024\, Daron Acemoglu\, Simon Johnson\, and James A. Robinson (AJR) were awarded the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences for their work on institutions and how they affect economic development and prosperity. As highly influential as their contributions are in the field of economics\, this award has been met with much criticism not just across disciplines and fields of study in the social sciences but also from heterodox schools of thought within economics.  \nPart of this criticism has been that their economic analysis is historically inaccurate and is not adequately informed by other fields such as development studies\, political science\, and history. This event proposal\, by taking the momentum gained by institutional perspectives from the 2024 Nobel Prize win by AJR and acknowledging the need for discourse on economic development to be more meaningfully informed by different social sciences\, thereby wishes to forge connections among Young Scholars working on institutions and development across different fields and through different perspectives by establishing a collaboration with the Development Studies Association (DSA) at their annual conference in June 2025. \nThe proposed YSI panel will take an experimental format given that the main objective is to establish theoretical nexus\, empirical extensions\, and concrete opportunities for interdisciplinary work in investigating the role of institutions on development. Thus\, this panel will welcome papers highlighting how institutions have been theorised and operationalised across social sciences such as political economy and development studies\, contextualised within the conference theme of navigating the present polycrisis. As a novelty\, each participant will not present their own submission but will instead be in charge of discussing a paper submitted by another Young Scholar. Their discussion must focus on how their own research benefits from and informs the work that has been assigned to them. Young Scholars will then be able to provide clarifications and facilitate a deeper understanding of their own work. Thus\, a concrete outcome from this experimental panel would be a network of early career researchers working on closely related topics\, which can potentially lead to joint research projects and future collaborations. \nDSA 2025 will also be a hybrid event\, so we also welcome applications from participants who may not be able to join us in Bath in person.

SUMMARY:The new geography of the electric vehicles global value chain
DESCRIPTION:The global automotive industry is undergoing profound transformations driven by rapid technological innovation and the urgency to address climate change. Electric vehicles (EVs) are at the center of this shift\, reshaping global value chains (GVCs) and altering traditional hierarchies in automotive production. The 2025 Gerpisa Colloquium\, under the theme “The Central Role of China in the Global Automotive Industry\,” provides an ideal setting to explore these dynamics as part of the Young Scholars Initiative. \nThis project examines how the transition to EVs is redefining the geography of the automotive GVCs\, focusing on two key trends: the dominance of China as a technological leader and production hub\, and the uneven opportunities for upgrading in smaller economies. With nearly 95% of EV sales concentrated in China\, Europe\, and the United States\, the EV market is increasingly polarized around major economic centers. Simultaneously\, China’s strategic leapfrogging in EV and lithium-ion battery production exemplifies the growing competition among industrialized nations. \nThe project seeks to analyze the implications of these shifts and explore how emerging economies can position themselves within these reorganized value chains. Through a mix of theoretical and empirical approaches\, participants will address questions such as: \n\nWhat are the key drivers of the new geography of EV value chains?\nHow does China’s dominance influence the dynamics of competition and collaboration within GVCs?\nWhat opportunities exist for smaller and developing economies to capture value in the EV sector?\n\nThe 2025 Gerpisa Colloquium will be held at the School of Economics and Management of Tongji University in Shanghai\, China. This project will run from June 24 to June 27\, 2025. \nAs part of the Young Scholars Initiative\, this project fosters collaboration among early-career researchers to advance innovative perspectives on the evolving global automotive industry.

SUMMARY:YSI @DRUID Workshop: Young scholars in cross-disciplinary research on innovation and dynamics of change
DESCRIPTION:The Keynesian Economics Working Group and the Economics of Innovation Working Group are happy to announce the YSI @DRUID pre-conference Workshop. It is a unique opportunity for young scholars from around the world to network within the cross-disciplinary “innovation community” and present to established scholars. \nDRUID is one of the biggest and most relevant international conferences on economics and management of innovation and dynamics of change. Its cross-disciplinarity in terms of topics and methods make it an excellent place for young scholars to learn and network. Whether your work concerns technology management\, international business\, entrepreneurship\, human resources\, corporate governance\, economic geography\, organizational behavior or industrial policy – this is for you. \n  \nObjective\nThis pre-conference provides a safe space to young scholars to present\, exchange and comment on their research and ideas. As it is easy to get lost and spread out at large conferences\, this is intended to give selected young scholars the opportunity to network and receive the undivided attention of experienced researchers. \n  \nWorkshop Agenda\nThis year\, DRUID 2025 takes place in Toronto\, at Rotman School of Management of Toronto University. Our workshop is on the 24th June 2025\, the day before the conference starts. The programme consists of two in-depth sessions dedicated to six PhD student presentations\, followed by a discussion from a senior scholar and a fellow young scholar. \n  \nCall for papers\nDEADLINE EXTENDED! APPLY BY 26th APRIL \nWe invite submissions on topics broadly related to the workshop themes\, including but not limited to: \n\nIndustrial dynamics and policy\nOrganizational behavior\nInnovation in science\nEconomic geography\nTechnology management\nEntrepreneurship\n\nPlease\, submit an extended abstract by 26th April 2025\, using the online form.

SUMMARY:Money View Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Money View Reading Group reads and discusses writings on money\, banking\, and finance. We are a self-directed group. Anyone interested in money and banking can read the readings\, join us for discussions\, or suggest future readings. \nWe meet for 90 minutes via Zoom on Mondays at 2 pm Eastern Time US (New York). \n\nCurrent Book\n\n\nHow a Ledger Became a Central Bank: A Monetary History of the Bank of Amsterdam by Stephen Quinn & William Roberds (2023)\n\nhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1108706150/ \nFrom the description \nBefore the US Federal Reserve and the Bank of England\, the Bank of Amsterdam (‘Bank’) was a dominant central bank with a global impact on money and credit. How a Ledger Became a Central Bank draws on extensive archival data and rich secondary literature\, to offer a new and detailed portrait of this historically significant institution. It describes how the Bank struggled to manage its money before hitting a modern solution: fiat money in combination with a repurchase facility and discretionary open market operations. It describes techniques the Bank used to monitor and stabilize money stock\, and how foreign sovereigns could exploit the liquidity of the Bank for state finance. Closing with a discussion of commonalities of the Bank of Amsterdam with later central banks\, including the Federal Reserve\, this book has generated a great deal of excitement among scholars of central banking and the role of money in the macroeconomy. \nWe will discuss this book across three sessions. \n\n2026-09-14 — Discussion Session 1 (Chapters 1–3) (Recording)\n\n\nUpcoming Sessions\n\n\n2026-09-21 – 2:00pm EDT\n\nDuring the off week\, we discuss the 2023 BIS Working Paper 1065 “The Bank of Amsterdam and the limits of fiat money\,” by Wilko Bolt\, Jon Frost\, Hyun Song Shin and Peter Wierts \nhttps://www.bis.org/publications/working-paper-1065-bank-amsterdam-and-limits-fiat-money \nFrom the description: \nCentral banks can operate with negative equity\, and many have done so in history without undermining trust in fiat money. However\, there are limits. How negative can central bank equity be before fiat money loses credibility? We address this question using a global game approach motivated by the fall of the Bank of Amsterdam (1609–1820). We solve for the unique break point where negative equity and asset illiquidity render fiat money worthless. We draw lessons on the role of fiscal support and central bank capital in sustaining trust in fiat money. \n\n2026-09-28 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nWe discuss Chapters 4–6 of How a Ledger Became a Central Bank. \nChapter 4: First Steps\, 1609–1659 \n\n4.1 Debasement\n4.2 The Fed That Wasn’t\n4.3 Displacement\n4.4 Replacement\n4.5 Agio Anchor\n4.6 Conclusion\n\nChapter 5: Emergence of the Receipt System\, 1660–1710 \n\n5.1 Yet Another New Local Coinage System\n5.2 Deposits\n5.3 Receipts\n5.4 The End of Withdrawal\n5.5 Expansion\n5.6 Political Economy\n5.7 Conclusion\nA.5 Additional Details of Receipts and Master Account Credits\n\nChapter 6: Metal in Motion: The Mechanics of Receipts \n\n6.1 Transformations: 1711–1736\n6.2 Flows under Receipt\n6.3 Economics of Receipts\n6.4 Comparisons with Modern Repos\n6.5 Receipts within the Monetary System\n6.6 Instability\n6.7 Conclusion\nA.6 Categorization of Metal within the Bank\n\n\n2026-10-12 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nWe discuss Chapters 7–9 of How a Ledger Became a Central Bank. \nChapter 7: Two Banks and One Money\, 1711–1791 \n\n7.1 The Rest of the Story\n7.2 Strength through Unity\n7.3 Operations\n7.4 Monetary Control\n7.5 Loss of Control\n7.6 Safe Asset\n7.7 Conclusion\n\nChapter 8: Prussia’s Debasement during the Seven Years War: The Role of the Bank \n\n8.1 Beating the Dutch at Their Own Game\n8.2 A Change of Tactics\n8.3 War Finance\n8.4 Entrepreneurs’ Activity in Amsterdam\n8.5 Amsterdam and Prussia’s Gold Coinage\n8.6 The Great Unwind\n8.7 The Challenges of Reinforcement\n8.8 Conclusion\n\nChapter 9: The Bank’s Place in Central Bank History \n\n9.1 From Then to Now\n9.2 Creative Destruction\n9.3 The Two-Bank Solution\n9.4 Monetary Maps: 1750 and 1900\n9.5 The Once and Future Bank\n\n\nFuture Suggested Readings\n\n\nThe Almighty Dollar: 500 Years of the World’s Most Powerful Money by Brendan Greeley (2026)\nWell Worth Saving: How the New Deal Safeguarded Home Ownership by Fishback\, Rose\, and Snowden (2013)\nSlapped by the Invisible Hand: The Panic of 2007 by Gary Gorton (2010)\nThe House of Morgan by Ron Chernow (1990)\nA Study of Money Flows in the United States by Morris Copeland (1952)\nA History of the Greenbacks by Wesley Clair Mitchell (1903)\nCalming the Storms: The Carry Trade\, the Banking School and British Financial Crises Since 1825 by Charles Read (2023)\nBenjamin Strong: Central Banker by Lester V.

SUMMARY:Canadian Bank Whistleblower Solution to Identity Theft
DESCRIPTION:Canadian Bank Whistleblower Solution to Identity Theft\n\nTony Crawford is a Canadian bank system Whistleblower since 2017 and longtime advocate to criminalize confidence tricks that steal title to property and money from private and public bank accounts. He tabled a Private Members Bill discussed with his MP Anita Anand on Canadian radio in 2021 when identity theft and money laundering became federal election issues to vote to change Canadian law in 2025.\n\nIdentity Theft deceives in various ways\, but the common factor is money\, often passed through a bank. This Webinar reviews ‘Dirty Money’ from Queen’s University Professor Christian Leuprecht that Canada is the go to place for criminal banking money laundering capital of the world in 2023.\n\nCrawford illustrates computer technology how to digitize law in bank system design focused on forensics to fix accounting errors in Canadian banks proven in breach of US anti-money laundering law fined billions of dollars in 2024. It is a similar to the Bates versus Post Office story of wrongful prosecutions of UK sub-postmasters in the Horizon affair in the news in 2025.\n\nThis study recommends a bank transaction control number is required to automate suspicious activity reports to remedy the problem. Especially\, Ponzi schemes that convert worthless paper to cash through taxation. Namely\, twice paid tax-credit Windbills hidden from the Treasury not reported in the budget known as Magna Carta loophole gullible taxpayer law.

SUMMARY:Navigating Uncertainty: Geopolitical Risks and the path to Clean Energy Transition
DESCRIPTION:The clean energy transition in developing countries faces significant geopolitical and structural challenges\, compounded by resource scarcity\, political instability\, and global economic inequalities. Africa\, despite contributing less than 4% of global emissions\, disproportionately suffers from climate change\, with 600 million people lacking energy access and receiving under 3% of global renewable energy investment. The continent relies heavily on external financing and resources like cobalt from the conflict-ridden Democratic Republic of the Congo\, heightening dependency and inequality. Similarly\, Asia\, responsible for 44% of global emissions\, needs $2 trillion annually to achieve net-zero by 2050. The region’s transition is hindered by reliance on critical mineral supply chains dominated by China and regional geopolitical tensions\, which amplify vulnerabilities for countries like Indonesia and the Philippines\, key nickel producers facing political and environmental risks. \nWe need to reopen the debate on managing these risks by focusing on targeted investment\, fostering regional cooperation\, diversifying supply chains\, and developing innovative financing models to guarantee a fair and comprehensive shift to clean energy. This debate marks a crucial step toward navigating the clean energy transition amid geopolitical uncertainties. \nThe proposed session\, “Navigating Uncertainty: Geopolitical Risks and the Path to Clean Energy Transition\,” will explore the multifaceted aspects of economic\, social\, political\, and environmental challenges. The session will discuss viable policies\, their socio-economic and political economy impacts\, as well as general issues related to geopolitical risks and green transition. \n  \nProject objectives: \n\nFacilitate the sharing of knowledge\, experiences\, and best practices among researchers\, entrepreneurs\, policymakers\, and professionals.\nPromote networking and collaboration among stakeholders to strengthen the inclusive green energy transition collaboration ecosystem.\nGenerate new insights to inform academic research\, green economy practices\, and policy formulation.\nInspire actions to support and promote the green energy transition led by young researchers across multiple disciplines.\n\n  \nWho can apply and how: \nWe welcome submissions from the young scholars\, masters and PhD students\, early career scholars\, and postdoctoral fellows by submitting an extended abstract of 500 words. We look forward to supporting the travel and accommodation of selected participants! We are looking for researchers in the United States and Canada working on the following subjects or on other topics related to the theme: \n\n The Role of International Cooperation in Mitigating Geopolitical Risks for Clean Energy Transition\n\n\n\n\nThis entails investigating how multinational alliances and collaborations might address energy security challenges while supporting global renewable energy projects.\n\n\n\n\n Balancing Energy Security and Sustainability in an Era of Geopolitical Tensions\n\n\n\n\nThis includes debating strategies that will guarantee a stable energy supply while shifting from fossil fuels to renewables in the face of global uncertainty.\n\n\n\n\n The Impact of Geopolitical Conflicts on Clean Energy Supply Chains\n\n\n\n\nThis encompasses investigating how geopolitical events impede crucial resource supply required for renewable energy technology such as batteries and solar panels.\n\n\n\n\n Geopolitics of Critical Minerals: Navigating Resource Nationalism in the Clean Energy Era\n\n\n\n\nThis includes investigating the increasing competitiveness for rare earth elements and its consequences for renewable energy development.\n\n\n\n\n Policy Innovations to Mitigate Geopolitical Risks in Clean Energy Investments\n\n\n\n\nThis requires assessing regulatory frameworks and financial tools designed to safeguard renewable energy projects in politically vulnerable places.\n\n\n\n  \nSubmitted papers should adhere to the conference’s author guidelines.

SUMMARY:History\, Histories and Historians: Reflecting on Legacies and New Directions in Zimbabwe’s Historiography
DESCRIPTION:Over the past decade\, historians of Zimbabwe have lost some influential colleagues who shaped both the content of the country’s historiography and its contemporary discourses. In association with the Britain Zimbabwe Society (BZS)\, the Journal of Southern African Studies (JSAS)\, will be convening a two-day event in Oxford between 20 and 21 June 2025 to reflect on ‘history\, histories and historians in the making of Zimbabwe’s past’. It will explore the current state of Zimbabwean historiography; key institutional bases for doctoral supervision\, training and mentorship; practices\, methods and power relations in the production of history; the central questions for earlier generations; emerging and novel themes and perspectives; and the re-centring of the study of Zimbabwean history in the twenty-first century.  In this space\, there will be opportunities to explore and engage with scholars and scholarship on Zimbabwean historiography from social\, and economic to political histories. We are proposing a partnership between JSAS and BZS as YSI (AFRICA and ECONOMIC THOUGHT) and bringing young scholars to witness and participate in this scholarly engagement. This is a space where scholars will reflect on recent and changing trends in Zimbabwean historiography. The question to be explored is: Are the questions that have dominated historiography over the last fifty years\, since Ranger’s Revolt (1967) still the central issues? Many historians who wrote political and economic histories during the liberation struggle were influenced by it. In turn\, their view of the past helped to inform elements of the struggle. Is there a need to reassess critical anti-colonial analyses?  Should issues of economic history and development\, such as migrant labour\, urbanisation\, and rural poverty be re-addressed?  What new themes are being taken up by historians in the twenty-first century\, and since the fast-track land reform? How should we assess the influence of broader\, global influences on historical writing\, especially in view of the widening range of institutions that provide a base for academics from Zimbabwe\, and those writing about Zimbabwe? Focusing on the multiple centres of Zimbabwean historical research and the diverse mentorships\, collaborations and networks involved\, this workshop and the resulting JSAS special issue will examine these genealogies\, exploring how and why the current generation is moving beyond the well-established themes of the liberation and early independence eras\, how they are building upon\, expanding and challenging these approaches and pointing to silences and gaps.   The workshop and special issue will partly reflect on the legacies of Ngwabi Bhebhe and Terence Ranger and the continuing work of practising senior historians such as Alois Mlambo\, Ian Phimister\, Joseph Mtisi\, Allan Isaacman\, Sandra Swart\, and others. However\, when conversations about Zimbabwe’s historiography take place\, they rarely give full attention to emerging scholarship. As is all too evident\, the most dangerous thing in history is the persistence of a single story. \nApplication start date to be announced soon! Be on the lookout.
