[CFP] Conference 2022 – China Working Group
China’s continuous economic growth and the preservation of lives and health of the population during the pandemic contrast sharply with the falling living standards and decline in life expectancy in the Global North. Is China’s plan for industrial upgrading and common prosperity a challenge to neoliberal capitalism? What are the impacts of China’s continuous development on world capitalism and on the shape of the international order? What lessons can be drawn from China’s zero-Covid strategy in combating present and future socio-ecological crises?
[CFP] Conference 2022 – Teaching Political Economy Working Group

Further, and linked, are questions of gender representation, with the undergraduate economics student populations dominated by male students and women under-represented in academic economics positions in the UK and across Europe, highlighting the need for teaching to foster access and inclusivity for the next generation of economists.

[CFP] Conference 2022 – Political Economy and Law Working Group
Law plays an integral role in the configuration of variegated and actually existing manifestations of capitalist processes across the globe, such as those associated with socio-ecological crises, rising precarities and inequalities, the governance of debt, austerity, financialization, technology and others. With this inaugural call for papers for the new IIPPE Working Group on Political Economy and Law, we invite submissions to this year’s IIPPE conference that focus on the intertwinement of political economy and law, to consider the following overarching question, particularly as it pertains to socio-ecological crisis and transformation: What is the law and how does it shape - and being shaped by - capitalist processes and relations?

We seek papers both on processes/relations within localities and regions and on processes/relations linking these scales to national and international scales.
