SUMMARY:International Conference on Inclusive Entrepreneurship and Innovation
DESCRIPTION:Project Description\nThe diversity of approaches to entrepreneurship is remarkable\, ranging from establishing new businesses to driving innovation and value creation. Whatever its manifestation\, entrepreneurship requires action and the active participation of individuals who assume the role of entrepreneurs. Traditionally\, researchers have limited entrepreneurship studies\, focusing on a stereotypical portrayal of entrepreneurs. However\, there is a growing interest in exploring diverse groups of unconventional entrepreneurs\, including immigrants\, people with physical or cognitive disabilities\, the elderly\, sexual dissidents\, ethnic and religious minorities\, ex-convicts\, and refugees\, among others. These groups of entrepreneurs have been systematically ignored or stigmatized despite their innovative potential and ability to generate significant social and economic change in their communities. \nStudying entrepreneurship led by these unconventional groups is essential in a world that increasingly values inclusion and equity. They represent a valuable source of innovation and resilience and are fundamental for developing public policies and support programs that foster inclusive entrepreneurship\, boost economic growth\, and equal opportunities. \nSimilarly\, the study of entrepreneurship of unconventional groups challenges and enriches our classical conceptions of what constitutes entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial success\, forcing us to reconsider our assumptions about entrepreneurship and recognize entrepreneurial potential in diverse and often underestimated contexts. \nTo delve deeper into this relevant topic\, we cordially invite you to present your research\, reflections\, and experiences at the First International Conference on Inclusive Entrepreneurship and Innovation. This conference will provide a platform to discuss and share knowledge on how to promote inclusive entrepreneurship and overcome the barriers faced by non-conventional entrepreneurs. We can work towards a more inclusive and equitable future for all entrepreneurs. \nObjectives\n\nKnowledge Exchange: Facilitate the sharing of knowledge\, experiences\, and best practices among researchers\, entrepreneurs\, policymakers\, and professionals.\nCollaboration: Promote networking and collaboration among stakeholders to strengthen the inclusive entrepreneurship ecosystem.\nNew Perspectives: Generate new insights to inform academic research\, entrepreneurial practices\, and policy formulation.\nConcrete Actions: Inspire actions to support and promote entrepreneurship led by non-conventional groups.\n\nEvent Structure\n\nKeynote Speeches: Renowned senior speakers will present on various topics related to inclusive entrepreneurship and innovation.\nParallel Sessions: Multiple sessions covering topics such as the challenges and opportunities of inclusive entrepreneurship\, ecosystem strengthening\, successful inclusive entrepreneurship\, local economic development\, women’s empowerment\, economic development in indigenous communities\, migrant and refugee entrepreneurship\, racial and ethnic equity\, and technological innovation.\nPanel Discussions: Interactive panels where experts will discuss specific issues and share insights.\nWorkshops: Practical workshops aimed at young researchers and practitioners.\nResearch Presentations: Presentation of academic journals and research findings.\n\nThemes\n\nChallenges and Opportunities in Inclusive Entrepreneurship: Addressing access to resources\, discrimination\, lack of support networks\, stigmatization\, and technological gaps.\nStrengthening the Ecosystem: Effective strategies for supporting disadvantaged groups\, including policy gaps and coordination among ecosystem actors.\nSuccess Factors: Identifying key factors and characteristics that contribute to the success of entrepreneurship among disadvantaged groups.\nLocal Economic Development: The role of inclusive entrepreneurship in social inclusion and economic development in marginalized communities.\nEmpowering Women Entrepreneurs: Designing effective programs and policies to support women entrepreneurs.\nIndigenous Economic Development: Balancing cultural preservation with economic integration.\nMigrant and Refugee Entrepreneurship: Facilitating integration through entrepreneurship\, addressing legal and social barriers.\nRacial and Ethnic Equity: Overcoming structural barriers to promote racial and ethnic equity in entrepreneurship.\nTechnological Innovation: Exploring the potential of technological innovation to promote inclusion and develop an inclusive innovation ecosystem.\n\nProgram Highlights\n\nDay 1: Registration\, parallel sessions on various topics\, keynote speech\, panel discussion\, and a workshop.\nDay 2: Continued registration\, parallel sessions\, keynote speech\, panel discussion\, and a workshop.\nDay 3: Final parallel sessions\, keynote speech\, panel discussion\, closing session with conclusions and recommendations\, and the closing ceremony.\n\nNetworking and Collaboration\nAttending CIEII 2024 will provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the current trends and challenges in inclusive entrepreneurship\, along with practical strategies and insights to foster innovation and inclusivity in the entrepreneurial ecosystem. The YSI community can expect the following benefits: \n\nEngage with a worldwide network of young scholars\, researchers\, and practitioners who are passionate about inclusive entrepreneurship and innovation.\nAccess collaborative projects\, research partnerships\, and joint initiatives that can amplify the impact of your work.\nBenefit from shared resources\, including databases\, research tools\, and publications that support inclusive entrepreneurship research and practice.\nReceive mentorship from experienced researchers and professionals in the field\, providing guidance and support for your academic and entrepreneurial endeavors.\nParticipate in workshops\, seminars\, and training sessions aimed at enhancing your skills and knowledge in inclusive entrepreneurship and innovation.\nShowcase your research and projects to a global audience\, gaining visibility and recognition within the academic and professional communities.\nBe part of an inclusive and supportive community that values diversity\, equity\, and inclusion in entrepreneurship.\nDedicated sessions for PhD students and early career scholars\, with a distinct application and selection process to ensure they receive the attention and recognition necessary to advance their research careers.\nFacilitate direct interaction between young scholars and senior researchers through targeted mentoring programs and networking sessions.\nOffer subsidized travel and accommodation for young scholars and waive registration fees to make the conference more accessible\, planning to subsidize up to 8 young scholars from the YSI community.\nOrganize workshops and training sessions tailored to the needs of young scholars\, focusing on research techniques and professional development.\nHighlight the contributions of young scholars within the main conference program to ensure their visibility and recognition.

SUMMARY:Money View Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Money View Reading Group reads and discusses writings on money\, banking\, and finance through the lens of Perry Mehrling’s money view. 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)\n2026-09-28 — Discussion Session 2 (Chapters 4-6) (Recording)\n2026-10-12 — Discussion Session 3 (Chapters 7–9) (Recording)\n\n\nUpcoming Sessions\n\n\n2026-10-19 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nPerry Mehrling died on October 13th\, 2026\, before his work was done. The closest thing we have to a treatise on Mehrling’s money view is his 2012 Economics of Money and Banking lecture videos. But that was going to change with his next book. \nIn the fall of 2024\, Mehrling shared drafts of the first three chapters of his money-view treatise with students in his seminar class at Boston University. \n2024 Draft Chapters \n\nChapter 1: A Web of Promises to Pay — Chapter 2: Dynamics of Global Credit\nChapter 3: The Prices of Money\n\nWe will be reading those draft chapters and watching four talks Mehrling delivered over Zoom to Aleksandar Stojanović’s “Money as if Finance Mattered” workshop in Berlin in early 2025. \n\n2025 Perry Mehrling Berlin Discussions\n\nThe first lecture is Mehrling’s sketch of a chapter on “A Money View of Monetary Heterodoxy.” The remaining three present his revised thoughts on the first three chapters. \nWhat questions does this material raise (or resolve) for you? What’s new here that’s missing from the 2012 lectures? \nJoin us to discuss Perry Mehrling\, his monetary theory insights\, and his intellectual legacy. \n\n2026-10-26 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nAuthor Stephen Quinn joins us to discuss How a Ledger Became A Central Bank. \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:Chinese Manufacturing Import Penetration and Firm Performance: Evidence from Belt and Road Initiative Countries
DESCRIPTION:In this paper\, Danilo Spinola (Chairman) YSI community board examines the firm-level effects of Chinese manufacturing import penetration on the performance of manufacturing firms in Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) countries. We construct a dataset of 59 BRI member countries by combining firm-level data from the World Bank’s Enterprise Survey with industry-level data from the United Nations Commodity Trade (Comtrade) database from 2011 to 2020. Employing a multi-level modelling approach\, our findings reveal that Chinese manufacturing imports exert a considerable adverse effect on productivity growth and employment\, and a robust and significant positive effect on the export capabilities of manufacturing firms. The adverse effects on performance are significantly moderated by firms that pursue innovation and engage in foreign licensing. These findings are significant in middle-income countries and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within BRI countries. Based on these findings\, we argue that the importation of manufactured goods from China results in a crowding-out effect on the productive capacities of firms within the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) countries on the one hand and a catalytic effect on the internationalisation of firms on the other hand. These dual outcomes may underscore China’s global value chains (GVCs) position-seeking strategy. \nOne of the core ideas is to understand China’s growing relevance to globalization and localize the knowledge for country specific policies.

SUMMARY:Exploring the Dark Side of the Moon: The History of Economics in the Global South
DESCRIPTION:Call for Presentation for an Online Webinar Series and book chapters \nWith the support of the Institute for New Economic Thinking’s Young Scholars Initiative and Globalisation and Economy in a long-term perspective\, we are hosting a series of webinars that bring together historians of economic thought from around the world who work on the History of economics of the Global South. \nThe History of economic thought is predominantly centered on Europe and the United States. Now that technology and economic interdependence have made the planet a single venue for struggles of interests and ideas\, such bias has become untenable. The exchange of ideas and cultures has always been strong\, irrespective of administrative boundaries and country-specific institutional frameworks\, that have led to national reconstructions of economic thought in those countries. \nA modern approach to the History of economics needs to include more ideas\, theories\, and practices debated beyond national or specific regional traditions. This is particularly relevant for a detailed study of the economic thought of the Global South. India\, Latin America\, China\, and Africa – just to provide a few examples – have long-established traditions concerning a different understanding and management of economic categories and systems. Many such ideas once controlled vast geographic areas\, populations\, and economies of the Global South\, sometimes even spilling over the North. These traditions need to be recognized and better studied. \nThe History of economic thought is a history of societies; with their rich and plural ideas and practices. If it is true that some have emerged as dominant in particular historical ages\, we should not forget other approaches to economics that have meanwhile been forgotten\, neglected\, and sometimes even completely ignored. \nIdeas that traveled from East to West and from South to North without political\, geographical\, or ideological barriers. Ideas have also traveled from South to South. These movements equally included categories that are unknown to most economic literature\, like food\, culture\, language\, vocabulary\, music\, science\, mathematics\, home organization\, domestic economy\, etc. Recent contemporary economic literature has started acknowledging and recognizing their importance and presenting economic thought as the wealth of the human species rather than a singular product of the European Renaissance (without reducing its significance to the world of ideas and economics).  \nThe proposed webinar and book project aim to encourage scholars (particularly from the Global South\, but not only) to present ideas discussed in the other half of the world\, concerning persons\, events\, institutions\, and/or theories\, possibly focusing on transnational contaminations and cross-fertilization. When we interpret historical ideas\, we must acknowledge that cultural\, linguistic\, and informational barriers may limit our understanding. As a result\, the existing documentation of economic thought from the Global South is often incomplete or even stereotypical. This webinar workshop and book aim to fill the gap and encourage the history of economics literature to be more pluralist.  \nOur ambition\, coherent with recent activities also pursued by other scholars in the attempt to go beyond localized and countries-specific histories of economic thought (Cambodia INET’s Young Scholars Initiative workshop\, Association for Latin American Economic Thought ALAHPE\, Indian Society for the History of Economic thought ISHET\, etc.)\, is: to raise a methodological issue\, provide a venue for academic discussions\, and encourage further studies along this line. We would include some contributions in a collective publication. We also hope the webinars will support the development of materials that could be used for teaching the history of economics courses and seminars around the world.  \nOrganization: The seminars will be held online at a variety of different times to give the greatest opportunity for public attendance. Seminars will be moderated by Sattwick Dey Biswas (one of the coordinators of INET’s Young Scholars Initiative) and Rebeca Gomez-Betancourt (University of Lyon 2 – ALAHPE). \nUpcoming sessions:\n  \nOctober 17\, 2 pm Berlin time \nLeonardo de Vio (University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne)\, Alexandre Reichart (Renmin University of China) and Wenjie Zhang (Renmin University of China) \n‘From the Legalist School to Kautilya’s Arthashâstra: the Birth of the Traditions promoting State Intervention into the Economies of China and India’ \nBryan Kauma (Southwestern University\, Georgetown\, US)\n“Critical but stable”: Agricultural propaganda\, Politics and Hunger in Zimbabwe \nNovember 14\, 2 pm Berlin time \nAjay Kumar Mishra (L.N.

SUMMARY:Imaginación política desde los territorios frente a la crisis multidimensional
DESCRIPTION:*** SPANISH *** \nEn esta confluencia de crisis sociales y ecológicas\, ya no podemos permitirnos ser poco imaginativos;  ya no podemos permitirnos prescindir del pensamiento utópico. Estas crisis son demasiado serias y las posibilidades demasiado amplias  para ser resueltas por los modos habituales de pensamiento\, las mismas sensibilidades que produjeron estas crisis en primer lugar.(Murray Bookchin\, 1982) \nEn la actualidad\, la región de América Latina y El Caribe vive una crisis multidimensional expresada en la hegemonía de las lógicas predatorias del capital. Una multiplicidad de conflictos socioambientales\, una renovada y cada vez más cruenta avanzada de las violencias patriarcales y racistas que impactan en los cuerpos feminizados y racializados\, la fuerte financiarización de la vida de los sectores populares seguida de un proceso de endeudamiento para su supervivencia\, son algunas de sus expresiones más visibles. A nivel global\, estas múltiples conflictividades se ven profundizadas por el avance neoconservador y fascista de la última década con impactos en todas las dimensiones de la vida cotidiana de los pueblos y de manera especialmente devastadora en países dependientes. \nAl mismo tiempo\, como contracara de esta herida abierta que tracciona los dolores más profundos de Nuestramérica\, los pueblos se organizan y resisten para recomponer los entramados sociocomunitarios que el avance del capital intenta\, cada vez con más fuerza\, desarticular. Las experiencias nacidas en el sur global buscan desafiar las lógicas de poder de un sistema de muerte\, recreando la imaginación política haciendo base en la memoria histórica nutrida de cinco siglos de resistencia. \nEn este marco\, las III Jornadas de Geografía del Conflicto buscan ser puente entre esas experiencias de resistencia y de lucha mediadas por debates políticos\, reflexiones desde la academia e investigaciones situadas desde la universidad pública y la mirada de artistas\, entendiendo la importancia de enfrentar al enemigo desde un diálogo de saberes amplio e interdisciplinar que comprenda la conflictividad desde una óptica integral. Habitar la universidad\, llenarla de nuevas imágenes\, tejer redes entre diferentes actores en resistencia\, posibilita transitar este territorio de producción de sentidos con una clara intención de disputa con el capital\, ya que el conocimiento académico es también\, en muchas ocasiones\, uno de los pilares de este sistema extractivo.  \nConvencidxs de que la universidad pública debe ser un espacio de debate y de lucha\, plural\, situada\, anclada en las necesidades de los sectores populares\, invitamos a estas jornadas con la intención de debatir\, reflexionar y comprender los procesos actuales\, pero también como escenario de creación y de recuperación de la creatividad política de los pueblos. \nFrente a un sistema de rapiña y destrucción\, donde el capital devora todo lo que tiene a mano para garantizar su reproducción\, las experiencias de resistencia y los procesos de organización\, los espacios de encuentro y de creación\, son la clave para pensar y construir repertorios de acción colectiva\, que permitan construir otras lógicas de habitar los territorios y\, en definitiva\, de organizar la vida.   \nDesde el grupo de investigación “Al Borde (construyendo pensamiento indisciplinado)”\, afincado en el Centro de Investigaciones Geográficas del IdIHCS (CONICET-UNLP)\, lxs invitamos a participar de las III Jornadas de Geografías del Conflicto “Imaginación política desde los territorios frente a la crisis multidimensional“ a realizarse en la ciudad de La Plata (Buenos Aires) los días jueves 14 y viernes 15 de noviembre de 2024. \nLugar: Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias de la Educación\, Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias de la Educación\, Universidad Nacional de La Plata. Calle 51 y 124 (Ensenada). \nModalidades de participación:  \n\nAsistentes (inscripción durante los días 14 y 15 de 9 a 10hs)\n Mesas de debates y propuestas (abiertas a la presentación de trabajos)\n Taller “Mapeo colectivo y conflictos ambientales: aportes para la Educación Ambiental Crítica”. Coordinado por el Grupo de Didáctica de las Ciencias Naturales (IFLYSIB\, UNLP-CONICET). Este taller apunta a poner en tensión los enfoques más difundidos en la Educación Ambiental\, a partir de comenzar a construir la noción de conflicto socioambiental y presentar al mapeo colectivo como herramienta pedagógica que puede ser llevada a diversos ámbitos para el abordaje de conflictos socioambientales.\n Pasantía. Caminata interpretativa “Filosofar desde nuestros territorios. Cartografías itinerantes para (des)armar”. Coordinación: Al Borde y Proyecto “Filosofar con niñxs”. \n\nCriterios para la presentación de trabajos \nInvitamos a estudiantes\, docentes\, militantes\, integrantes de organizaciones sociales\, investigadorxs en formación y avanzadxs\, a enviar contribuciones a través de un resumen de hasta 200 palabras. El formato de presentación en la mesa podrá ser variado: ponencia\, póster\, instalación\, intervención artística\, taller\, juego\, fanzine\, collage\, etcétera. Apuntamos a diversificar los formatos de producción y circulación de conocimiento científico\, como forma de contribuir al diálogo con múltiples actores y espacios sociales.  \nMesa 1. “Conflictos socioterritoriales y extractivismos”. Coordinan: Grupo de Investigación en Infraestructura y Conflictos Socioterritoriales (GIICSO) \nDurante los últimos años\, los conflictos socioterritoriales provocados por las actividades extractivas y la infraestructura asociada a ellas\, han cobrado cierta relevancia a raíz de su expansión y del recrudecimiento de sus modalidades de acción. En su impacto\, han logrado articular múltiples dimensiones de la vida social y comunitaria. Ante esta situación\, se han evidenciado los límites de los instrumentos conceptuales para comprender esos conflictos en pos de pensar posibles alternativas\, eje articulador de esta mesa. \nMesa 2. “Escenarios y estrategias lúdicas para leer e intervenir territorios dependientes”. Coordinan: Al Borde\, Instituto de Investigación y Desarrollo Tecnológico para la Agricultura Familiar (INTA) y cátedra Didáctica de la Geografía de la FCH-UNICEN. \nLas vidas de quienes habitamos la región de América Latina y El Caribe están atravesadas por la condición dependiente de nuestros territorios: vidas signadas por procesos de endeudamiento históricos\, por la vulneración de derechos sociales y por la desigualdades estructurales de clase\, de género\, de etnia\, etaria\, entre otras. Hemos estudiado estos territorios\, los hemos caracterizado y hemos consumido las ficciones que plantearon distopías de las cuales se nutre nuestra realidad actual. En pos de compartir\, recuperar y reflexionar en conjunto alrededor de diversas formas creativas de leer\, problematizar e intervenir en la realidad\, invitamos a grupos y colectivos de la comunidad en general\, a presentar experiencias en las que lo lúdico tenga un rol preponderante. \nToda la información disponible será publicada en nuestras redes sociales y en la página web del IdIHCS: t.ly/T3rAA  \nConsultas:  \nalborde.colectiva@gmail.com  \n@Al.Borde_ \n*** ENGLISH*** \nLatin America is undergoing a multidimensional crisis that manifests today in the dominance of predatory capitalist logics. This is evident in a range of socio-environmental conflicts\, the renewed and increasingly violent advance of patriarchal oppression\, and brutal racial attacks\, which disproportionately impact feminized and racialized bodies. These conflicts are exacerbated by the neoconservative and fascist resurgence that\, globally\, has been taking place in the political-economic sphere over the past decade\, affecting all aspects of people’s daily lives—especially in dependent countries. \nAt the same time\, as a counterforce\, people are organizing and resisting\, working to rebuild the socio-communal fabric that the advance of capital seeks to dismantle. From these experiences\, particularly from those of us in the Global South\, we strive to challenge the power dynamics of a death-driven system\, drawing on the political creativity rooted in our historical memory. \nThese events aim to serve as a bridge between these resistance struggles and political-economic debates\, reflections from academia\, and context-based research from public universities. \nBy inhabiting the university\, filling it with new visions\, and weaving networks between different resistance actors\, we can navigate this space of meaning-making with the clear intention of contesting capital\, as academic knowledge often forms one of the pillars of this extractive system. \nConvinced that the public university must be a space for debate and struggle—plural\, grounded\, and anchored in the needs of the popular sectors—we invite you to engage in discussions\, reflections\, and deeper understanding of current processes. But we also see this as an opportunity to create and reclaim new spaces for political-economic imagination. \nIn the face of a system of exploitation and destruction\, where capital consumes everything in its path to ensure its own reproduction\, acts of resistance\, organization\, and spaces for meeting and creation are crucial for devising and building repertoires of collective action. These actions will help us construct alternative ways of inhabiting our territories and\, ultimately\, reorganize life itself. \nPlace: Faculty of Humanities and Education Sciences\, Faculty of Humanities and Education Sciences\, National University of La Plata. Street 51 y 124 (Ensenada). \nParticipation methods:  \n\nAttendees: Registration will be open on the 14th and 15th from 9 to 10 am.\nDiscussion and Proposal Tables: Open for the presentation of papers.\nWorkshop: “Collective Mapping and Environmental Conflicts: Contributions to Critical Environmental Education.” Coordinated by the Natural Sciences Didactics Group (IFLYSIB\, UNLP-CONICET). This workshop aims to critically examine the most widespread approaches in Environmental Education by starting with the concept of socio-environmental conflict and introducing collective mapping as a pedagogical tool. This tool can be applied in various contexts to address socio-environmental conflicts.\nInternship: Interpretive walk titled “Philosophizing from Our Territories: Itinerant Cartographies to (Dis)arm.” Coordinated by Al Borde and the “Philosophizing with Children” project.\n\n\nCriteria for the presentation of works  \nWe invite students\, teachers\, activists\, members of social organizations\, early-career and advanced researchers to submit contributions in the form of a summary of up to 200 words. The format for presentation at the table may vary: it can be a traditional presentation\, poster\, installation\, artistic intervention\, workshop\, game\, fanzine\, collage\, etc. We aim to diversify the formats of knowledge production and dissemination as a way to foster dialogue with various actors and social spaces. \nTable 1: “Socio-territorial Conflicts and Extractivism” \nCoordinator: Research Group on Infrastructure and Socio-territorial Conflicts (GIICSO).\nIn recent years\, socio-territorial conflicts caused by extractive activities and related infrastructure have gained visibility due to their expansion and intensification. These conflicts impact various dimensions of social\, economic\, and community life. In this context\, the limitations of existing conceptual frameworks to understand these conflicts have become apparent. This roundtable seeks to address these limitations and explore possible alternatives. \nTable 2: “Playful Scenarios and Strategies for Understanding and Intervening in Dependent Territories” \nCoordinator: Al Borde\, Institute of Research and Technological Development for Family Farming (INTA)\, and the Geography Didactics Chair of FCH-UNICEN.\nThe lives of those in Latin America and the Caribbean are marked by the dependent condition of our territories—shaped by historical indebtedness\, social rights violations\, and structural inequalities related to class\, gender\, ethnicity\, and age\, among others. We have studied these territories\, characterized them\, and consumed dystopian narratives that reflect our current realities. To share\, recover\, and reflect together on creative ways to read\, problematize\, and intervene in this reality\, we invite community groups and collectives to present experiences where playfulness plays a central role. \nMore nformation will be published on our social networks and IdIHCS website: t.ly/T3rAA \nInquiries:  \nalborde.colectiva@gmail.com \n@Al.Borde_ \n***SPEAKERS*** \nRaquel Robles \nEs escritora y pedagoga.

SUMMARY:Zimbabwe’s Reconfigured Political Economy: Implications in Research\, Theory\, and Public Policy
DESCRIPTION:  \nDescription \nSince about 2000\, especially with the Fast-Track Land Reform Program (FTLRP)\, then a few years later ‘indigenization policy’ Zimbabwe’s political economy has undergone a very complex and multifaceted transformation. This complex transformation was characterized by Professor Raftopoulos as the ‘re-configured political economy’ and the political economy that has unraveled since then is dominated by highly informalized processes of accumulation. This informality is evident in rapid periphery-urbanization; informalized mining (‘chikorokoza’); transportation systems (‘mushika-shika’); insecure land tenure for resettled farmers; cross border trading; the ‘tuck shop’ and ‘pavement’ economy; money changers (‘siphateleni’) seeking arbitrage from volatile currency inflation; informal money lenders (‘chimbadzwa’). This complex transformation has implications in the way researchers\, policy makers and intellectuals approach understanding Zimbabwe. The intellectual and public policy lens that dominated the 1980s\, 1990s  and partly in the early 2000s that focused on ‘linear’ on democracy and governance contestations are no longer adequate to grasp these transformations and how they interpenetrate the political power matrix. These changes are to be found in – rapid informalisation of the economy. \nThe changes in Zimbabwe’s political economy since 2000 have had profound impacts on the field of social sciences. Scholars within disciplines such as economics\, political science\, sociology\, rural and urban planning\, anthropology\, economic history\, political economy and development studies have been prompted to reevaluate their approaches\, methodologies\, and research agendas in response to these developments. \nOverall\, the progress and challenges in Zimbabwe’s political economy since 2000 have stimulated interdisciplinary research and debate within the social sciences. Scholars have engaged with a wide range of issues\, drawing on diverse theoretical frameworks and methodological approaches to deepen our understanding of Zimbabwe’s complex socio-economic and political realities. \nWe welcome contributions from scholars working on Zimbabwe’s reconfigured political economy with the purpose of advancing the following objectives. \n\nFoster cross-disciplinary dialogue on Zimbabwe’s political economy.\nEvaluate the impacts of recent socio-economic and political changes.\nIdentify priority areas for future research.\nGenerate policy-relevant insights for inclusive development and social justice.\nEmpower young scholars by providing a platform to showcase their work.\n\nEarly career researchers (Post Graduate Students) are encouraged to apply. Contribution can focus on\, but not necessarily limited to\, the following themes: \n\nHow the Natural Resources and Mining landscape has been impacted by the reconfigured political economy. One may focus on\, the mining sector and economic development\, resource governance and revenue management\, environmental impacts of mining activities\, artisanal small-scale miners (ASMs)/Chikorokoza \nHow has Social Policies and Human Development been impacted by the reconfigured political economy. One may focus on\, education and health sector reforms/changes\, social protection and poverty alleviation strategies\, gender and social equity issues.\nHow has Economic Reforms and Policies been impacted by the reconfigured political economy. One may focus on\, fiscal and monetary policies\, financial challenges/money changers\, public sector reform and privatization\, emergence of Savings clubs and SMEs\, tuck-shop economy and cross border trading.\nHow has Agriculture and Land Policy been impacted by the reconfigured political economy. One may focus on\, the outcomes of the land redistribution program\, agricultural productivity and food security\, sustainable land management and rural development\nHow has Urbanisation\, Housing and Urban Transport. been impacted by the reconfigured political economy. One may focus on\, urban growth and housing policies\, housing cooperatives\, Informal settlements and urban poverty\, urban transport.\nHow has Migration and Diaspora Engagement. been impacted by the reconfigured political economy. One may focus on\, patterns and impacts of migration\, engagement with the Zimbabwean diaspora\, remittances and their economic implications.\nHow has Technology and Innovation. been impacted by the reconfigured political economy. One may focus on\, the role of technology in economic development including education\, digital transformation and e-governance\, online work/gig economy and technology hubs.\n\nThe workshop will be held in-person under the auspices of the Young Scholars Initiative (YSI Africa working group) and the Institute for Public Affairs in Zimbabwe (IPAZ) in Harare on 14-15 November 2024. \nPapers presented at the workshop will be published either in an edited volume or a special issue. \nWe invite interested scholars to submit: (1) an abstract (250 words max.); and (2) a one-page Curriculum Vitae (CV) via the application link. \nFor more information contact: tauraic@ipazim.org and cc peteruledy@gmail.com  ediesb@ipazim.org and  foraffairs.zim@gmail.com \nThe application deadline for submission of the abstract and CV is 31 August 2024. The email address for submission is symposium2024@ipazim.org. \nNotification of acceptance: 10 September 2024. \nSuccessful applicants must submit a full paper by 31 October 2024.

SUMMARY:Money View Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Money View Reading Group reads and discusses writings on money\, banking\, and finance through the lens of Perry Mehrling’s money view. 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)\n2026-09-28 — Discussion Session 2 (Chapters 4-6) (Recording)\n2026-10-12 — Discussion Session 3 (Chapters 7–9) (Recording)\n\n\nUpcoming Sessions\n\n\n2026-10-19 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nPerry Mehrling died on October 13th\, 2026\, before his work was done. The closest thing we have to a treatise on Mehrling’s money view is his 2012 Economics of Money and Banking lecture videos. But that was going to change with his next book. \nIn the fall of 2024\, Mehrling shared drafts of the first three chapters of his money-view treatise with students in his seminar class at Boston University. \n2024 Draft Chapters \n\nChapter 1: A Web of Promises to Pay — Chapter 2: Dynamics of Global Credit\nChapter 3: The Prices of Money\n\nWe will be reading those draft chapters and watching four talks Mehrling delivered over Zoom to Aleksandar Stojanović’s “Money as if Finance Mattered” workshop in Berlin in early 2025. \n\n2025 Perry Mehrling Berlin Discussions\n\nThe first lecture is Mehrling’s sketch of a chapter on “A Money View of Monetary Heterodoxy.” The remaining three present his revised thoughts on the first three chapters. \nWhat questions does this material raise (or resolve) for you? What’s new here that’s missing from the 2012 lectures? \nJoin us to discuss Perry Mehrling\, his monetary theory insights\, and his intellectual legacy. \n\n2026-10-26 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nAuthor Stephen Quinn joins us to discuss How a Ledger Became A Central Bank. \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:Reading Thandika Mkandawire
DESCRIPTION:Our reading group on the works of Thandika Mkandawire invites anyone interested in African development\, heterodox economics\, and critical perspectives on policy-making. Mkandawire\, a Zimbabwean/Malawian economist and social scientist\, is renowned for his critique of mainstream development policies and for advancing alternative approaches that consider the unique socio-political landscapes of African countries. \nHis work addresses central questions on the state\, economic policy\, and development\, challenging orthodox narratives that have historically underpinned international development programs. Mkandawire advocates for “thinking beyond the mainstream.” He critiques the reductionist views that characterize African states as “failed” or “fragile” and instead explores the nuances of state-building\, governance\, and economic development in ways that resonate with local realities. His emphasis on the role of the developmental state in Africa invites readers to reimagine development frameworks that acknowledge the agency of African leaders and institutions. \nThis reading group dedicated to Mkandawire’s work will also provide an opportunity for collective reflection on the pathways toward sustainable and inclusive development in Africa. \n  \n  \n\n  \n  \nMeeting #1: 11/11  \n“The Spread of Economic Doctrines and Policymaking in Postcolonial Africa” (2014) \n  \nMeeting #2: 25/11 \n“Thinking about developmental states in Africa” (2001) \n  \nMeeting #3: 9/12 \nTbc \n  \nFor further info about Thandika Mkandawire’s work\, click here.

FLAME University\, India. He received his Doctorate Degree in Economics from Jawaharlal Nehru University\, New Delhi\, and has completed his master’s in Economics from Gokhale Institute of Politics & Economics-Pune. He was also a Post-Doctoral Fellow at Indian Institute for Human Settlements (IIHS)\, Bangalore. Prof. Ravikiran has over nine years of work experience and was associated with the Institute of Rural Management Anand (IRMA)\, Indian Institute for Human Settlements (IIHS)\, and Christ University- Lavasa. He is an applied economist by training and has a keen interest in the research areas involving Labor Economics\, Informal employment and Entrepreneurship\, Intergenerational economic mobility\, and economics of education. He has published peer review articles in national & international journals. He has also co-authored a book titled ‘Women Entrepreneurs in The New Indian Middle Class: Macro & Micro Perspectives. \nAbstract \nThis study examines the impact of education-occupation mismatch (EOM) on wages in India’s urban labor market\, where informal employment is widespread. While it is generally accepted that higher education leads to higher earnings\, concerns arise when the number of highly educated individuals outpaces the availability of jobs requiring their qualifications\, potentially leading to credentialism rather than a more skilled workforce. Our research fills a gap in the existing literature by analyzing the combined effects of EOM and labor market informality on earnings. We estimate the returns to over-education\, under-education\, and adequate education across both formal and informal sectors. The findings indicate that returns to education are consistently lower in the informal sector compared to the formal sector. Workers with adequate education receive significantly higher returns in both sectors\, while those with under-education suffer wage penalties regardless of their employment type. The returns to education also vary across the wage distribution: in the formal sector\, adequate education yields higher returns in lower wage segments but decreases in the upper segments. Conversely\, in the informal sector\, returns increase steadily across the wage distribution\, with the highest returns in the top decile\, suggesting a convergence with the formal sector at the upper end. Additionally\, returns to over-education rise along the wage distribution in both sectors\, while returns to under-education remain consistently lower. These results hold across different econometric models and definitions of informality. The study underscores a significant wage penalty for workers in the informal sector who have invested in education\, suggesting that policies aimed at reducing labor market informality could help mitigate EOM and decrease the associated earnings penalties. \n  \nSession 3: Women’s Time Use Patterns of Paid and Unpaid Work in India \nNovember 7\, 6.30 PM IST Indian Standard Time \nSpeaker: Dr. Vijayamba R\, Assistant Professor – of Economics. NLSIU\, India. \nVijayamba is a development economist interested in studying women’s work in the labour markets. She completed her postdoctoral stint at the Centre for Sustainable Employment\, Azim Premji University\, and was part of the research team behind the State of Working India (SWI) Report 2023\, focusing on the role of social identities on labour market outcomes. Her PhD research focused on women’s role in the livestock economy\, including their ownership of livestock assets\, labour contribution\, and decision-making in the livestock economy. She is currently awarded a Non-Resident Post-Doctoral fellowship by the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER)-National Data Innovation Centre (NDIC) to explore measurement issues of women’s work using secondary data. Her research interests include women’s work\, the utilization of time\, decision-making\, social norms\, and issues of measurement. Her other interests include reading\, travelling\, and practising music. \nAbstract \nThis talk presents estimates of women in economic activity using the Time Use Survey of India (TUS 2019). In India\, the broad patterns of time use reveal that women engage in a predominant share of unpaid work leaving less time for employment and leisure. This paper asks if engagement in employment results in an offsetting reduction on unpaid work across different levels of education and types of employment. Identifying self-employment and wage employment from the International Classification of Activities for Time Use Statistics (ICATUS 2016)\, for women engaged in self-employment\, there is a slight trade off with unpaid work. Whereas urban graduate women face an increased burden of unpaid work. \n  \nSession 4: Justice For All? The Impact of Legal Aid in India \n  \nFebruary 6\, 2025\, 6.30 PM IST Indian Standard Time \nSpeaker: Dr. Nitin Kumar Bharti\, Postdoctoral Associate\, NYU Abu Dhabi \nNitin Bharti is a postdoctoral scholar in the Economics department of the New York University-Abu Dhabi. He received his Ph.D. from the Paris School of Economics and the University of Namur in 2022. Before that\, he earned his bachelor’s degree from IIT-Kharagpur and has two years of experience working in the corporate sector. He is an applied micro-economist\, and his research interests lie in understanding the development of educational systems and their linkage with economic growth and inequality. He is also interested in studying the long-term evolution of economic inequalities in the South Asia region. \nAbstract \nBarriers to justice perpetuate poverty and inequality. We study a large expansion of access to legal representation in India: the establishment of prison legal aid clinics. We collect the opening dates of 763 clinics and link them with data on 13 million criminal\ncases and prison populations. Using a staggered difference-in-differences design\, we find that defendants with access to legal aid are more likely to receive definitive judgements\, favorable outcomes\, and acquittals\, with more cases dismissed early. This reform reduces prison populations\, sparing 31\,055 individuals annually and yielding a welfare gain of $7.60 for every dollar invested in legal aid. \n  \nSession 5: Role of informal economy in the process of economic development \nMarch 11\, 2025\, 6.30 PM IST Indian Standard Time \nSpeaker: Surbhi Kesar\, Senior Lecturer\, Department of Economics\, SOAS University of London\n \nSurbhi Kesar is a development and political economist\, who currently works as a Senior Lecturer in Department of Economics at SOAS University of London. Her recent and ongoing work focusses on labour and informal economy and the reproduction of the structure of economic dualism in India with high economic growth\, thereby critiquing the imaginary of development-as-capitalist-transition; relation between identities and social exclusion; political economy of crises; a critical engagement with the social reproduction theory; and approaches towards decolonising the field of economics. Her research is embedded in Marxian Political Economy and South-centric critical frameworks of economics. \nAbstract \nDespite a high economic growth experienced by the India\, a vast majority of its workforce derives livelihoods from the informal economy. In this talk\, we reflect on how different strands of literature – both mainstream and critical – have explained the persistence of the informal economy and what role it plays in the process of economic development. Using data from individual and firm level surveys\, over the period of high growth\, we assess various dynamics of India’s informal economy . We reflect on why India’s experience does not square with the dominant theories and posit an alternative framework\, following the works of Kalyan Sanyal\, that can help us make sense of the current reality. Building on it\, we derive the research agenda on informal economy and post-colonial capitalist development and posit the questions that need answering.

SUMMARY:Young Scholars Workshop on Cooperatives and The Digital Economy
DESCRIPTION:Introduction \nOn the occasion of the Digital Africa Rising Conference\, we propose to hold a 6-hour workshop for young scholars to share their varied experience on the theme “Leveraging Digital Technologies for Transformative Change in Collectives: Exploring Platform Cooperativism in Africa”. The workshop will be in-person and mainly focused on career development paths for scholars with interests in exploring digital transformation in cooperatives\, chamas and other collectives in Africa. Chamas\, informal cooperative savings and investment groups that are prevalent in East Africa (merico rounds in other parts of Africa)\, have long played a crucial role in promoting financial inclusion and social development in the region. With the advent of digital technologies\, the potential for chamas and other collectives across various sectors to transform and innovate has grown exponentially. This workshop seeks to explore the transformative potential of digital technologies in chamas and other collectives\, engaging with the framework of Platform Cooperativism to examine successful global models and innovative African approaches in digital platform governance and ownership. \nObjective \nThis workshop aims to foster dialogue\, collaboration\, and knowledge sharing that will drive innovation and transformation in chamas and other collectives across Africa. Through a focus on digital technologies and platform cooperativism\, we aim a network of young scholars who are curious about models that empower communities and promote inclusive economic growth that benefits all members of the society. Specifically\, we will accept emerging cooperative scholars whose research interests seeks:\n• To explore the role of digital technologies in enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of chamas and other collectives in sectors such as finance\, housing\, agriculture\, healthcare\, transportation\, and more.\n• To analyze successful global models of platform cooperatives and their impact on collective ownership and governance.\n• To identify innovative African approaches to digital platform governance and ownership that can provide fresh perspectives and insights.\n• To facilitate knowledge exchange and collaboration among stakeholders\, including chama members\, policymakers\, researchers\, and technology developers.\n• To discuss the challenges and opportunities in implementing digital technologies in chamas and other collectives\, and to develop strategies for maximizing their transformative potential. \nKey Themes \nWe welcome submission related projects that involve digital initiatives by legacy co-ops\, platform cooperatives\, and other adjacent grassroots projects in the platform economy (i.e.\, couriers organizing their own alternative collectives\, online markets\, or mobile money innovations\, in the health space\, agriculture\, potentially by credit unions/saccos). We will accept applications from young scholars exploring the following themes:\n• Digital transformation in chamas and other collectives: Opportunities and challenges\n• Platform cooperativism: Global models and their relevance in African contexts\n• Innovative African approaches to digital platform governance and ownership\n• Case studies of successful digital initiatives in chamas and collectives across sectors\n• Policy implications for promoting digital inclusion and platform cooperativism in Africa. \nTarget Audience \nThis workshop is intended for young researchers\, practitioners\, policymakers\, and entrepreneurs working in the fields of cooperative economics\, digital technologies\, development\, and social innovation. Scholars will have the opportunity to learn from leading experts in the field\, engage in discussions and workshops\, and network with like- minded professionals. \nWorkshop Format \nThe conference will include keynote presentations\, panel discussions\, workshops\, and networking sessions. Scholars will have the opportunity to explore case studies\, share best practices\, and collaborate on innovative solutions for leveraging digital technologies in cooperative in Africa. By bringing together diverse perspectives and experiences\, this conference aims to catalyze transformative change in the way collectives operate and empower communities in Africa. Join us in exploring the potential of platform cooperativism in shaping a more inclusive and sustainable future for all.

SUMMARY:YSI Panel on Mitigating Socioeconomic Inequality through Local And National Initiatives at PES 2024
DESCRIPTION:Philippine Economics Society (PES) Main Conference\nEach year\, the Philippine Economics Society (PES) conducts the PES Annual Meeting and Conference. For its 62nd year\, the theme is dedicated to achieving upper-middle-income status through “Traversing Innovative Pathways for Economic Resilience\, Inclusion\, and Localization.” The event focuses on overcoming challenges like inequality and poverty through local economic development\, transformative reforms in key sectors\, and embracing digitalization. This gathering aims to foster collaboration and knowledge exchange among policymakers\, local officials\, industry leaders\, and civil society to co-create innovative solutions for a resilient\, inclusive\, and localized economy. It will be hosted in Novotel Manila Araneta City\, Quezon City\, Philippines from November 7-8\, 2024. \nYSI Panel on Mitigating Socioeconomic Inequality through Local And National Initiatives\nAccording to the International Monetary Fund (IMF)\, the Philippine economy has successfully navigated multiple external headwinds in recent years and is expected to grow by 5.8 percent in 2024. Notwithstanding the country’s macroeconomic stability\, poverty remains to be in double digits (15.5 percent in 2023)\, inequality of opportunities between regions persist\, and natural resources remain untapped for economic security purposes. \nYouth are rarely included in the formulation and implementation of economic policies that directly impact their future. Their innovative ideas are often overlooked. Traditional hierarchies and societal norms in cultures like the Philippines can also discourage youth from actively engaging in economic discourse\, particularly in challenging the status quo or proposing alternative solutions. As such\, this first Philippine YSI panel brings together undergraduate and graduate students\, as well as young economists\, to share their fresh perspectives on how the pursuit of economic resilience\, inclusion and localization can mitigate socioeconomic inequalities entrench in the Philippine economy. This session will provide a Global South insight on why socioeconomic inequalities is still a persisting economic challenge in emerging markets and developing economies (EMDEs). \nPanel Abstracts\nRevitalization Initiatives of the Local Government: A Case Study of the Balut Industry in Pateros\, Metro Manila\n*Bacani\, Cielo Grace F.\, Kampana\, Genea Gail V.\, Sarical\, Patricia Gael A.\nPolytechnic University of the Philippines \nFollowing an incessant decline\, the local government of Pateros initiated revival efforts for its Balut industry through the Balut incubator technology project and tax exemptions for Balut businesses. These initiatives were analyzed using a qualitative case study\, employing a semi-structured interview with five registered Balut businesses and four key informants\, notably officials and representatives from Pateros and the Department of Science and Technology. The findings highlight the complexities of the revival endeavors\, with strengths encompassing convenience and cost-effectiveness of egg processing and streamlined business requirements. Weaknesses manifested through incubator technology usage limitations and insufficient tax benefits. Opportunities lie in diversifying and enhancing duck egg quality\, increasing local government support\, program expansion\, and leveraging Balut as a delicacy. Challenges include misconceptions about programs\, lack of project monitoring\, duck egg supply shortages\, and resistance to modern technology. Therefore\, enhancing and expanding revitalization efforts is necessary to support businesses and overcome industry challenges. \nGuns and Butter: The Tradeoff Between Defense and Social Expenditure in the Philippines (1981-2022)\nAxl Fitzgerald L. Bulawan (YSI East Asia WG)\nUniversity of the Philippines Tacloban \nTradeoffs\, as a result of scarcity\, are at the center of economics. One common tradeoff is the guns and butter\, the budgetary tradeoff between defense expenditure and social expenditure. Using Budget of Expenditures and Sources of Funding (BESF) data from 1981 to 2022\, this study used regression analysis to determine whether this tradeoff exists in the case of the Philippines. It found no evidence that increased defense expenditure has a negative effect on social expenditure\, as represented by education expenditure. On the contrary\, it found that defense expenditure induces education expenditure. This study also attempted to test the Benoit hypothesis using Philippine data\, a hypothesis that posits that defense spending results in economic growth. Building on Dariano’s (2015) earlier work\, this study used Granger causation analysis to determine the causal relationship between defense expenditure and social expenditure to GDP and vice versa. It found that social expenditure Granger causes economic output\, while no appropriate lag order length was selected to be able to prove the Benoit hypothesis. Results imply the need for greater budgetary allocation to social spending in order to increase economic output. \nAchieving Economic Security through the Blue Economy\nMarius Stephen V. Torres (YSI Sustainability WG)\nPhilippine Representative to the IMF\, Department of Finance \nThe study aims to develop a Blue Economy (BE) Strategy that encourages the Philippine Government to simultaneously promote the twin pursuits of maritime and economic security\, and encourage the adequate management of risks to optimally utilize the opportunities associated with the traditional (fishing and tourism) and emerging (marine technology and renewable energy) BE industries. The study found out that the BE holds one of the keys to achieving inclusive growth and sustainable development in the Philippines; achieving the country’s goal of 100 percent food-fish sufficiency by 2028 will require improving management of fish stocks; conserving marine ecosystems plays an integral role in protecting coastal communities from the effects of climate change; strengthening the tourism industry will further boost economic activities by creating demand for both consumption and investment; and the Philippines can explore and invest in marine technology and renewable energy to unlock the BE’s economic and development potential. \nRegistration\nThe deadline for pre-registration is 3 November 2024. Online participants are required to register by 3 November. Meanwhile\, for on-site participants\, walk-ins will still be accepted on the day of the conference.

SUMMARY:YSI COP for the UNFCCC COP29
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of the Conference of the Parties (COP) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is to bring together member countries each year to set ambition and responsibilities\, and to identify and evaluate climate action. The 21st COP (COP21) led to the Paris Agreement\, which mobilised global collective action to limit the global temperature increase to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels by 2050\, and to take action to adapt to the impacts of climate change already occurring. This year\, COP29 will be held in Baku\, Azerbaijan\, from 11 November to 23 November 2024. \nCOP29 calls for “Enhance ambition and enable action”.  “The first pillar — to “enhance ambition” — combines key elements to ensure all parties commit to ambitious national plans and transparency. The second pillar — to “enable action” — reflects the critical role of finance\, a key tool to turn ambition into action and reduce emissions\, adapt to climate change and address loss and damage.” \nAs a YSI community\, we believe in the importance of this process and that we can contribute from our experiences and studies. In order to learn and contribute to COP29\, we invite you to join us at the YSI COP for the UNFCCC COP29 workshop\, which will take place in Warsaw\, Poland from 4 to 7 November in the run-up to COP29. The workshop will welcome YSI members – between 10 and 15 scholars – to discuss the key issues of COP29 through discussion dialogues\, site visits and a simulation session where members will play the role of negotiators. \nThis project is a collaboration between the Finance\, Law and Economics Working Group\, the Sustainability Working Group and the Philosophy of Economics Working Group. By participating in this workshop\, selected scholars will deepen their knowledge in their fields of study\, have the opportunity to meet peer-leading researchers and practitioners in an interdisciplinary environment. The goal of the workshop is to write up some recommendations report from the YSI perspective and produce a concrete document that will be presented by a group of YSI scholars attending COP29 in Azerbaijan. \nA limited number of participants will receive financial support from YSI for their participation. This support will include: a partial travel stipend to Warsaw\, Poland; full accommodation with breakfast for three (3) days – from 4 November to 7 November; lunch on 5 and 6 November; and transportation to a farm visit on 6 November. We expect participants to arrive on 4 November and depart on 7 November. \nThe selection process will take place after the deadline of the October 6th.

SUMMARY:Money View Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Money View Reading Group reads and discusses writings on money\, banking\, and finance through the lens of Perry Mehrling’s money view. 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)\n2026-09-28 — Discussion Session 2 (Chapters 4-6) (Recording)\n2026-10-12 — Discussion Session 3 (Chapters 7–9) (Recording)\n\n\nUpcoming Sessions\n\n\n2026-10-19 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nPerry Mehrling died on October 13th\, 2026\, before his work was done. The closest thing we have to a treatise on Mehrling’s money view is his 2012 Economics of Money and Banking lecture videos. But that was going to change with his next book. \nIn the fall of 2024\, Mehrling shared drafts of the first three chapters of his money-view treatise with students in his seminar class at Boston University. \n2024 Draft Chapters \n\nChapter 1: A Web of Promises to Pay — Chapter 2: Dynamics of Global Credit\nChapter 3: The Prices of Money\n\nWe will be reading those draft chapters and watching four talks Mehrling delivered over Zoom to Aleksandar Stojanović’s “Money as if Finance Mattered” workshop in Berlin in early 2025. \n\n2025 Perry Mehrling Berlin Discussions\n\nThe first lecture is Mehrling’s sketch of a chapter on “A Money View of Monetary Heterodoxy.” The remaining three present his revised thoughts on the first three chapters. \nWhat questions does this material raise (or resolve) for you?

SUMMARY:15th Conference on Social Studies on the Economy
DESCRIPTION:The conference on social studies on the economy constitute an interdisciplinary space that renews the tradition of the Social Sciences\, questioning the established disciplinary jurisdiction that separates those objects and processes that would be strictly “economic” from “social\,” “political\,” “cultural\,” or “moral” ones. Since their first meeting in 2006\, the conference has consolidated as an interdisciplinary space through the progressive inclusion of students\, teachers\, fellows\, and researchers from different backgrounds and latitudes. Establishing a permanent controversy with economics from its neoclassical-orthodox perspective\, the space achieves the convergence of sociologists\, anthropologists\, political scientists\, historians\, and economists from different places such as Argentina\, Brazil\, Chile\, Mexico\, Colombia\, France\, and the United States\, among others. The Social Studies of Economics Conferences are the expression of the formation process of an intellectual field that\, while promoting and stimulating the production of knowledge\, allows a true circulation of social\, political\, and cultural ideas about economic processes and objects.\nIn 2024\, the XV edition of the Social Studies of Economics Conference\, “State and Market? Tensions between antagonism and complementarity in a world in crisis\,” aims to recover\, discuss\, and problematize the complex and relevant relationship between State and Market\, a topic of growing global and regional relevance.\nIn the international context\, developed countries reclaim economic protectionism in the framework of geopolitical disputes with Asia\, and especially with China\, for leading the “green and digital” economy. In Latin America\, on the other hand\, expressions emerge that seek to reduce the State’s participation in the economy and society\, proposing the market as the exclusive and most beneficial allocator of natural\, material\, and symbolic resources.\nIn the interconnections between State and Market\, as well as between the global\, regional\, and local levels\, discussions persist around an agenda of research problems\, which have been addressed from different theoretical-methodological perspectives\, both micro and macro-social. In these conferences\, we seek to work on development models; the configuration of social inequalities and their recent transformations; the dynamics of indebtedness in States\, households\, and companies; the monetary and financial repertoires of individuals; the complex relationships between States and markets; the economic and political action of companies and entrepreneurs; popular economics and informal and illegal markets\, among others.\nTaking up the open dialogues among researchers in the region\, the conferences seek to establish themselves as a space to rethink the multiple ways in which we do economic sociology in Latin America and the dialogues we establish with academies from other regions of the world. The conferences invite\, then\, to think of economic sociologies in the plural\, allowing for the diversity and heterogeneity of theoretical and methodological perspectives with which the social sciences approach economic life.

SUMMARY:Workshop on Commodity Price Volatility and Sustainable Development Goals
DESCRIPTION:A major economic issue for developing countries is the heavy concentration of their exports in primary goods (that is\, crude oil\, coal\, copper or iron ore\, rough diamonds\, and agricultural products such as wheat\, coffee beans and cotton). Being destined for exports\, these goods are not transformed into finished goods internally\, thereby representing a great economic loss for these developing countries. Instead\, these primary goods are transformed into finished goods in developed economies\, and then exported back to developing countries. An obvious question is why are these primary goods not transformed into finished goods in their country of origin\, and then exported as finished goods\, at a much greater economic benefit. \nUNCTAD’s Trade and Development Report (2023) states that the global economy is stalling even as inequality is widening. The global trend of excessive volatility in commodity prices have contributed to the ongoing increase in interest rates to combat inflation\, weakening the currencies and slowing export growth in Commodity-Dependent Countries (CDCs). These trends are particularly detrimental to growth for any country\, especially developing countries. As a result\, it has reduced the prospect of meeting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. These goals are particular difficult for CDCs\, which are on the receiving end of widened inequality. \nAgainst this background\, the Workshop on Commodity Price Volatility and Sustainable Development Goals attempts to bring together academics and policymakers to discuss the problems (and possible solutions) of excessive volatility in commodity prices and how they deter the achievement of sustainable development in CDCs. This workshop will take place at the United Nations Headquarters\, in New York\, on October 31st. Some confirmed speakers are Joseph Stiglitz\, José Antonio Ocampo\, Ryan Isakson\, Jacob Assa and Aleksandr Gevorkyan. \nThese issues will be discussed in a smaller group format in our YSI pre-event\, to take place at the INET office the day before the workshop (speakers to be confirmed soon). \nWe will select up to 8 young scholars to receive accommodation (2 nights in a shared hotel room) and partial travel stipends to attend both the pre-event and the workshop. \nAll applicants must fill this application form by August 30th. Decisions will be made by September 5th. \nQuestions regarding this event may be sent to the organizers through the following emails: sylviokappes@gmail.com and sarahrnp@gmail.com.

SUMMARY:Money View Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Money View Reading Group reads and discusses writings on money\, banking\, and finance through the lens of Perry Mehrling’s money view. 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)\n2026-09-28 — Discussion Session 2 (Chapters 4-6) (Recording)\n2026-10-12 — Discussion Session 3 (Chapters 7–9) (Recording)\n\n\nUpcoming Sessions\n\n\n2026-10-19 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nPerry Mehrling died on October 13th\, 2026\, before his work was done. The closest thing we have to a treatise on Mehrling’s money view is his 2012 Economics of Money and Banking lecture videos. But that was going to change with his next book. \nIn the fall of 2024\, Mehrling shared drafts of the first three chapters of his money-view treatise with students in his seminar class at Boston University. \n2024 Draft Chapters \n\nChapter 1: A Web of Promises to Pay — Chapter 2: Dynamics of Global Credit\nChapter 3: The Prices of Money\n\nWe will be reading those draft chapters and watching four talks Mehrling delivered over Zoom to Aleksandar Stojanović’s “Money as if Finance Mattered” workshop in Berlin in early 2025. \n\n2025 Perry Mehrling Berlin Discussions\n\nThe first lecture is Mehrling’s sketch of a chapter on “A Money View of Monetary Heterodoxy.” The remaining three present his revised thoughts on the first three chapters. \nWhat questions does this material raise (or resolve) for you? What’s new here that’s missing from the 2012 lectures? \nJoin us to discuss Perry Mehrling\, his monetary theory insights\, and his intellectual legacy. \n\n2026-10-26 — 2:00pm EDT\n\nAuthor Stephen Quinn joins us to discuss How a Ledger Became A Central Bank. \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 Panels on Feminist Economic Thought @ ISHET 2024
DESCRIPTION:In August 2023\, Azim Premji University hosted the first International Conference on the History of Economic Thought (HET) in India. The conference aimed to “contribute to the development of the field and advance our understanding of the historical roots of contemporary economic debates and challenges.” The presentations covered a broad spectrum of topics\, ranging from African to Indian economic thought\, from Ambedkar to Sraffa\, from Keynesian to Feminist economics\, and from Kautilya to Khaldun. The conference attracted a diverse group of HET and non-HET instructors and students from various parts of the country. \nThe Conference on the History of Economic Thought (HET) 2024 aims to contribute to the development of the field and the advancement of our understanding of the historical roots of contemporary economic debates and challenges. This is the first annual conference on HET since the formation of the Indian Society of the History of Economic Thought (ISHET) and will be organised in collaboration with the University of Hyderabad. In an effort to further improve access to and diffusion of HET knowledge in Indian academia\, the YSI History of Economic Thought Working Group is also organising a one-day pre-conference workshop preceding the conference. \nThe contribution of feminist economics to economic thought and its re-opening of questions\, theories\, and assumptions have radicalised how we think about women’s role and contribution to the economy. Feminist economics has shown us that the economic man is not a woman. Given this context\, it becomes crucial to incorporate feminist economic thought in the discourse on the History of Economic Thought. \nThis year at ISHET 2024\, YSI Gender and Economics Group will host two panels and one keynote lecture by Rebeca Gomez Betancourt (University of Lyon) under the common theme of feminist economic thought. Each panel will be 90 minutes long and have 3 presenters each. The duration of each presentation will be approx. 20 minutes with 10 minutes for discussion and Q&A. The presenters can also expect to get feedback from Rebeca on their proposed work. Rebeca is a Professor of Economics at the University of Lyon and was the first president of The Latin American Society for the History of Economic Thought (ALAHPE). She has also been associated with the International Association for Feminist Economics (IAFFE) and the European Society for the History of Economic Thought (ESHET). Her current research is in the area of feminist economic thought. \nAn illustrative list of themes for the panels is provided below: \n\nThe evolution of social reproduction theory\nThe History of Time Use Surveys and their contribution to measuring women’s work and welfare\nThe history of women’s movements in the Global South in relation to labour\, leisure\, family\nThe contribution of individual women and women economists (like Devaki Jain\, Vina Mazumdar\, Krishna Bharadwaj\, and others) to economic thought and the evolution of policy discourse in India\n\nThe objective of the proposed panels is to provide a platform to young scholars researching feminist economic thought or using a feminist lens to conduct their research\, to receive feedback on their research and to contribute to the discourse of feminist economic thought in India. It also aims to provide them with a platform to interact and build a community with other young and senior scholars researching the domain of feminist economic thought and the history of economic thought. \nWe encourage submissions\, especially from young scholars\, pursuing or interested in research in feminist economic thought\, to apply by submitting an abstract (500 words max). The deadline for submitting abstracts is 30 June 2024. All presenters will be eligible for accommodation near the conference venue and partial travel stipends. Partial funding is also available for limited participants. Preference will be given to young female scholars\, those from marginalised communities and/ or with limited institutional support. \nThe decisions for abstract selection and stipend allocation will be made by the Scientific and Organising Committee for the ISHET conference. Note that the stipends do not cover the registration fees that each participant should afford on their own. Please refer to the ISHET website for details about the registration fees. You may refer to these sample articles from a HET perspective that are available as a guide for new scholars in the field. \nIMPORTANT DATES \nDeadline for submitting abstracts: 30 June 2024 \nNotification of acceptance: 15 July 2024 \nDeadline for paying the registration fees: 1 August 2024 \nDeadline for submitting full papers: 1 October 2024 \nISHET Conference: 28\, 29 October 2024  \nORGANISING COMMITTEE FOR THE ISHET CONFERENCE  \nR.

SUMMARY:YSI Pre-ISHET Conference Workshop
DESCRIPTION:In August 2023\, Azim Premji University hosted the first International conference on the History of Economic Thought (HET) in India. The conference aimed to “contribute to the development of the field and advance our understanding of the historical roots of contemporary economic debates and challenges.” The presentations covered a broad spectrum of topics\, ranging from African to Indian economic thought\, from Ambedkar to Sraffa\, from Keynesian to Feminist economics\, and from Kautilya to Khaldun. A pre-conference component was also included\, where various scholars facilitated discussions on paradigms in economic theory and the distinctions between different schools of thought. The conference attracted a diverse group of HET and non-HET instructors and students from various parts of the country. \nMore recently\, in November 2023\, as part of its Golden Jubilee Celebrations\, the Madras Institute of Development Studies (MIDS) conducted a three-day workshop on the History of Economic Thought. The workshop included presentations\, round-table discussions\, and reflections on the curriculum and pedagogy with respect to teaching and learning HET in India. \nIn an effort to further improve access to and diffusion of HET knowledge in Indian academia\, the YSI History of Economic Thought Working Group is organising a pre-conference workshop. This workshop will take place at the University of Hyderabad\, Hyderabad\, on October 27\, one day before the Indian Society of the History of Economic Thought’s (ISHET) first annual conference in collaboration with the University of Hyderabad. \nThe objective of this workshop is to equip young scholars with various aspects of research in the domain of the history of economic thought. This includes four sessions on: \n\nHow to write HET theses (with Alex M. Thomas\, Azim Premji University\, Bengaluru)\nHow to write and publish HET journal articles (with Richard van den Berg\, University of Kingston and Rebeca Gomez Betancourt\, University of Lyon)\nHow to work with archival material (with Scott Carter\, University of Tulsa)\nHow to publish books in HET (with editors from Cambridge University Press\, Palgrave Macmillan and Routledge)\n\nYoung scholars who are pursuing or interested in research in the history of economic thought are encouraged to apply. \nWe will bring around 30 young scholars who are either pursuing/interested in research in the history of economic thought domain. In order to be  eligible for travel stipends to attend the workshop and conference\, you should: 1) be registered for the ISHET’s conference\, and 2) be a young scholar (bachelor’s\, master’s and doctoral students\, early career scholars). \nThis is intended as a pre-conference\, rather than a standalone workshop. Participants will therefore also need to be registered for the ISHET’s conference by paying the appropriate fees. \n  \nIMPORTANT DATES \n\nDeadline for submitting SoP for YSI pre-ISHET conference workshop: 30 June 2024\nNotification of acceptance: 15 July 2024\nDeadline for submitting abstracts: 30 June 2024\nNotification of acceptance: 15 July 2024\nDeadline for paying the registration fees: 1 August 2024\nDeadline for submitting full papers: 1 October 2024\nYSI Pre-ISHET conference workshop: 27 October 2024\nISHET Conference: 28\, 29 October 2024\n\n  \nHOW TO APPLY \nTo apply for the workshop\, please fill in the Google Form (Click on ‘Apply here’). To apply for the workshop\, submit a 400-500 word SoP\, including how the workshop and the ISHET conference will help you in your future aspirations.

SUMMARY:Struggle for Economic Independence: Perspectives On Dangote Refinery
DESCRIPTION:Oluwatosin Olusola Adesina \nStruggle for Economic Independence: Perspectives On Dangote Refinery\nAfrica’s quest for economic independence has long been a pressing continental goal\, driven by the need to break free from overreliance on external forces for critical resources\, particularly in the natural resources sector. The call for economic sovereignty is rooted in the belief that a nation must control its resources and industries to chart a sustainable and self-determined course for development. For example. Nigeria a country endowed with vast natural resources\, the dream of economic independence has often been elusive\, with various challenges hampering progress. However\, recent developments have reignited hope\, with the Dangote Refinery emerging as a potential game changer in this struggle.\nEfforts towards promoting economic independence in Nigeria have seen various initiatives aimed at fostering local content and reducing dependency on imports. Policies encouraging local production\, diversification of the economy\, and infrastructure development have been central to these efforts. However\, the oil sector\, which remains the backbone of Nigeria’s economy\, has lagged in this regard. Despite being a major crude oil producer\, Nigeria has historically relied on imported refined petroleum products\, leading to a significant drain on foreign reserves and exposing the country to global oil market fluctuations. The Dangote Refinery\, the largest of its kind in Africa\, symbolizes a bold attempt to reverse this trend and take a significant step towards true economic independence.\nThe Dangote Refinery\, with its massive capacity to refine 650\,000 barrels of crude oil per day\, has been touted as a transformative project that could end Nigeria’s dependence on imported petroleum products. However\, the refinery’s journey has not been without controversy. The intricate relationship between Dangote\, the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL)\, and the government has sparked debates on the extent to which this private enterprise will serve national interests. Some argue that the refinery could solidify Dangote’s market dominance\, potentially creating a new monopoly\, while others view it as a necessary step towards self-sufficiency. International observers have also weighed in\, with some expressing skepticism about the project’s ability to deliver the anticipated benefits\, given the complex political and economic dynamics at play.\nDespite the varying perspectives\, the underlying message remains clear: the pursuit of economic independence is a shared responsibility. It requires a collective commitment from both the private and public sectors\, as well as active participation from the citizenry. The Dangote Refinery may not be a panacea for all of Nigeria’s economic challenges\, but it represents a significant opportunity to advance the nation’s and the continent’s independence agenda. This projection is similar with many African countries\, same with some countries of the global south. \nPlease join us in this vital conversation\, and let’s chart a path towards a more economically independent Africa.

SUMMARY:The Political Economy of Environmental Conservation in Southern Africa
DESCRIPTION:Africa remains the highest rural region with 61 percent of its population living in rural areas. Of course\, rural poverty is not only rife in Africa but a global phenomenon. One fifth of the world’s population live in extreme poverty (Khan 2001). Two out of three people in rural areas are living in poverty ( Nucci et al 2020). The causes of such poverty are complex ranging from failures of governments\, collapsing markets\, institutional failure\, and various ill-fated public policies. Other causes such as climate\, especially droughts have also been explored by scholars like David Anderson (1984) and Tinashe Takuva (2021). Doomed and dangerous government policies have been accused of exacerbating the issue\, by neglecting social and physical development through infrastructural development in rural areas. \nClearly\, we really need to understand the roots of rural poverty to help address it. A detailed account of the causes of rural poverty has been grouped into three dimensions\, economic\, social\, and environmental. On the economic side\, rural areas have witnessed low productivity\, lacked economic diversification\, and limited access to markets. Socially\, there has been exclusion\, especially of women\, to access land and other economic opportunities available for them to make a living (Suttie 2020).  Central to this workshop is the environmental dimension. The loss of biodiversity\, climate change\, droughts and environmental degradation have impacted agricultural production since most of the rural dwellers rely on subsistence farming (Mugandani 2012). Agriculture is the main source of income for the majority of rural poor ( UNDESA 2021). Thus it is imperative to examine how agrarian and environmental policies have impacted agriculture and development in the rural areas. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization reported that in Africa the number of rural poor has increased by 137 million in the period 1990 to 2015 (FAO 2021).  Thus 55 percent of the global poor are in Africa. 59 percent of such people live in fragile and vulnerable contexts due to climate and conflicts. While causes vary\, the most striking characteristic is over reliance on natural resources at the expense of agricultural and rural investment. With most peasants across the globe heavily dependent upon their immediate environments for livelihoods it is important to understand how environmental and agrarian policies have shaped rural livelihoods. \nFor instance\, Inspired by the need to defend against internal threats and outside censure\, Rhodesia became a highly centralized and state-controlled economy between 1963 to 1979\, especially after the Unilateral Declaration of Independence (UDI) in 1965. The economic policies adopted in this period were a reaction by the Rhodesia Front government to economic shocks caused by the dissolution of the Central African Federation (CAF) and the imposition of economic sanctions by Britain and the United Nations (UN) in 1965 and 1966 respectively. This is a well-trodden path\, historiographically. But perhaps new ground can be broken by turning the same lens on environmental and agrarian policies. In 1966\, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources drafted a blueprint to alter conservation and agriculture in the Tribal Trust Lands and Purchase Areas. Interest rates were increased for purchase farmers\, development of irrigation schemes and small dam construction were stopped. More land was appropriated from both TTLs and purchase areas. For environmental conservation land inspectors\, land development officers were appointed to manage soil erosion. District commissioners were mandated to strictly manage natural resources that lay in TTLs. They were integral to strategies adopted ‘in defense of white rule.’ The policies were in the best interest of the white minority rule. \nThese different shocks led the government to remodel the economy and have strict control of business\, industries\, agriculture\, and conservation. The policies were racial and the implementation of the policies benefitted the white section of the society at the expense of peasants in TTLs. The environmental and agricultural policies had a negative impact on peasant livelihoods as they caused unbearable living conditions. \nAfter independence in 1980\, the African peasantry in Zimbabwe expected their lives to change. They had fought a white supremacist state in a brutal civil war. They had suffered and their land and livestock had suffered. They had been promised a socialist utopia. But suddenly the war was over\, an all-African party was in power\, and donations were pouring in from the West for rural development in the communal areas (former Tribal Trust Lands\, TTLs) to improve technical skills\, build dip tanks\, and set up irrigation schemes. But this peasant paradise proved a mirage. It disappeared once they thought they were finally upon it.  This two-day workshop seeks to unpack how various environmental policies in Southern Africa impacted peasant livelihoods and rural development. \nThe guest speaker will give a keynote.
