SUMMARY:St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar – ‘Neoliberalism\, Institutional Blending and the Governance of Rural Land’\, Ian Hodge
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday 11 October 2017\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Ian Hodge\nTalk Title: ‘Neoliberalism\, Institutional Blending and the Governance of Rural Land’\nLocation: Ramsden Room\, St Catharine’s College \nThe next St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar in the series on the Economics of Austerity\, will be held on 11 October\, 2017 – Ian Hodge will give a talk on ‘Neoliberalism\, Institutional Blending and the Governance of Rural Land’. The seminar will be held in the Ramsden Room at St Catharine’s College from 6.00-7.30 pm. All are welcome. The seminar series is supported by the Cambridge Journal of Economics and the Economics and Policy Group at the Cambridge Judge Business School. \nSpeaker:\nIan Hodge is Professor of Rural Economy in the Department of Land Economy and Fellow of Hughes Hall at the University of Cambridge\, where he has worked since 1983. He was Head of Department of Land Economy between 2002-2011. His primary research interests are in rural environmental governance\, policy and economics\, property institutions and rural development. He has previously worked at the Universities of Queensland in Australia and Newcastle upon Tyne in the UK. He has a PhD in Countryside Planning from Wye College\, University of London and a BSc from the University of Reading. \nTalk Overview:\nThere is a large literature on neoliberalism. Over time the literature has expanded to cover a variety of different issues. It is almost universally critical and has become increasingly incoherent and contradictory. One thread within neoliberalism\, focusing on property rights\, casts the debate in terms of public ownership and intervention versus private enterprise and ‘free’ markets. However\, this obscures a more significant trend towards new approaches in governance that fall between these extremes that we term institutional blending. This recognises the major role of civil society\, reallocation of property rights\, provision of assurance and of public\, private and third sector partnerships. It includes a role for an interventionist state that embraces many of the mechanisms that have been developed through neoliberal approaches. These will be illustrated taking examples from rural land management. The discussion questions whether this may represent a post-neoliberal approach to public governance. \nPlease contact the seminar organisers Philip Arestis (pa267@cam.ac.uk) and Michael Kitson (mk24@cam.ac.uk) in the event of a query \n

SUMMARY:Climate Change and International Development: what needs to be done? by Sam Bickersteth
DESCRIPTION:6 December 2017: Climate Change and International Development: what needs to be done? \n\nDecember 2015 marked a high point of multilateralism when 190 countries came together in Paris and agreed to take action on climate change. More than ever action on climate change needs to be taken as extreme climate events become the norm and tipping points ever nearer but in 2017 increased political uncertainty has made progress on the Paris Agreement harder to implement. Sam Bickersteth will provide his perspectives on a future agenda for action in the wake of the latest UN climate talks concluding on Bonn on 17th November 2017. Sam will draws on his experiences from a career in international development and leading the Climate and Development Knowledge Network (CDKN) over the past seven years. The lecture is part of the University of Greenwich Big Picture Lecture Series and it is co-organised by GPERC and FEPS. \nLocation: room SL101\, University of Greenwich\, Stephen Lawrence Building\nTime: 17:00-19:00. \nNo booking is required by seating will be allocated in a first-come first-serve basis.

SUMMARY:St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar – ‘‘Calculating the Costs of Conflict’\, Ron Smith
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday 26 April 2017\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Ron Smith\nTalk Title: ‘‘Calculating the Costs of Conflict’\nLocation: Ramsden Room\, St Catharine’s College \nThe next St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar in the series on the Economics of Austerity\, will be held on 26 April\, 2017 – Ron Smith  will give a talk on ‘Calculating the Costs of Conflict’. The seminar will be held in the Ramsden Room at St Catharine’s College from 6.00-7.30 pm. All are welcome. The seminar series is supported by the Cambridge Journal of Economics and the Economics and Policy Group at the Judge Business School. \nSpeaker:\nRon Smith is Professor of Applied Economics at Birkbeck\, University of London\, where he teaches statistics and econometrics. Prior to joining Birkbeck in 1976\, he taught at Cambridge. He has also been visiting professor at London Business School and the University of Colorado. He has written 6 books\, edited another 3 and published over 200 papers mainly in applied econometrics and defence economics. His book Military\nEconomics: the interaction of power and money (Palgrave 2009) was shortlisted for the 2010 Duke of Westminster’s Medal for Military Literature. He has acted as a consultant to a range of bodies including Frontier Economics and the UK National Audit Office on defence projects.\nHe is an Associate Fellow of the Royal United Services Institute and regularly lectures at the UK Defence Academy. He was awarded the 2011 Lewis Fry Richardson lifetime achievement award for contributions to the scientific study of militarised conflict by the European Consortium of Political Research. \nTalk Overview:\nConflict has a major influence on economic development and there is a large literature on the economic costs of military conflict. This presentation uses four questions to structure a discussion of the calculation of conflict costs. The first concerns the purpose of the calculation: why is it being done? The second concerns the counterfactual: what comparison is being made? The third concerns the data: where do the numbers come from? The fourth concerns aggregation and valuation: how are the elements of costs (over outcomes\, time and individuals) combined? The literature is often not clear on the answers to these questions\, tending to take them for granted. However\, the answers are crucial to the calculation and are not merely technical matters of economics and statistics but rest on both the underlying objective of the calculation and fundamental philosophical and ethical judgements. The presentation will draw on “On the heterogenous consequences of civil war” (with Vincenzo Bove and Leandro Elia) Oxford Economic Papers forthcoming and “The Economic Costs of Military Conflict”\, Journal of Peace Research\, 51(2) March 2014 pp. 245 – 256. \nPlease contact the seminar organisers Philip Arestis (pa267@cam.ac.uk) and Michael Kitson (m.kitson@jbs.cam.ac.uk) in the event of a query.

SUMMARY:Financialisation and the Periodisation of Capitalism Discussion
DESCRIPTION:IPPE financialisation working group invites to you a discussion on:\nFinancialisation and the periodisation of capitalism \n25th April 2017\, 6-8pm\,\nKhalili Lecture Theatre\, SOAS\, University of London \nAs the concept gains prominence within social sciences\, debates arise about situating financialisation within the history of capitalism. Is financialisation a contingent product of the economic shifts of the 1970s and 1980s? Is it a long-run tendency of capitalism?\nJoin us for for a discussion about these issues with Prof. Photis Lysandrou (City University of London)\, Prof. Simon Mohun (Queen Mary University of London)\, and Prof. Jan Toporowski (SOAS). The speakers will introduce their different viewpoints and discuss some theoretical implications concerning the incorporation of contextual aspects with respect to space and time\, based on questions prepared by the IIPPE financialisation working group. A general Q&A session will follow. The event is open to everyone\, and is chaired by Dr Ulrich Volz\, head of the department of Economics at SOAS.

SUMMARY:Post-Brexit Options for the UK: Combining Legal and Economic Analysis Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The UK government faces a major challenge in formulating a clear plan for Brexit. Its current position is that departing the EU necessarily entails leaving the European Economic Area and customs union. The Prime Minster has said that ‘no deal’ is better than a ‘bad deal’. Thus it is possible that at the end of March 2019\, the UK will fall back on WTO rules. While the government may have worked out the legal and institutional implications of this scenario\, it has not shared this information with the public. By its own admission\, the government has not undertaken any economic analysis of the possible effects of Brexit\, beyond the work carried out by the Treasury before the referendum of June 2016. In these circumstances\, there is an urgent need for informed public debate on the consequences of Brexit. On 30 March 2017 the Cambridge Public Policy Strategic Research Initiative and Centre for Business Research (CBR) will be holding a Workshop to explore the legal and economic context of the momentous decision to trigger Article 50. We will be reporting the state of the art on legal issues which include the WTO option\, migration\, citizen’s rights\, the UK’s ‘exit bill’\, free movement\, taxation\, social policy\, and the legal mechanics of leaving\, including the proposed ‘Great Repeal Act’. We will also be presenting the latest results from the CBR’s economic forecasting model\, UKMOD\, which has earned a reputation for accuracy and even-handedness in its analysis of the effects of Brexit. \nKeynote speaker\nJames Wolffe QC\, Lord Advocate for Scotland \nLegal Issues:\nMigration: Catherine Barnard\nThe WTO Option: Lorand Bartels\nSector-specific regulation: John Bell\nSocial and Economic Policy: Simon Deakin\nTaxation: Julian Ghosh QC\nThe Great Repeal Act: David Howarth\nEU Citizens’ Rights: Kirsty Hughes\nFree Movement: Martin Steinfeld\nThe UK’s ‘Exit Bill’: Michael Waibel \nEconomic Forecast\nEconomic Scenarios Post-Brexit: Graham Gudgin\, Ken Coutts and Neil Gibson \nRegistration\nRegistration is free but places are limited.

SUMMARY:IIPPE Training Workshop – Value and Price after Marx
DESCRIPTION:IIPPE Training Workshop – Value and Price after Marx \nMon 27 March\, SOAS Brunei Gallery (room B102) \nThe International Initiative for Promoting Political Economy (IIPPE) announce their next Training Workshop at SOAS (room B102\, in the Brunei Gallery)\, London on 27 March 2017 (registration from 9.30am). \nSimon Mohun will lead the workshop. In the morning session (10am to 1pm)\, the focus will be on a Marxist approach to the understanding of value and price. The afternoon session will provide a comprehensive survey of approaches to the ‘transformation problem’\, for which a prerequisite is either (and preferably) the morning session or some prior knowledge of the issues involved. In both sessions the emphasis will be on interpretation and logic\, rather than any underlying mathematics. \nThis Workshop will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students\, junior academics and activists who have a particular interest in acquainting themselves with core elements of Marxian political economy. \nPre-registration is essential because of room capacity constraints. Please register by completing the online form. \nTo learn about IIPPE\, their activities\, working groups and events\, access www.iippe.org.

SUMMARY:'Does inequality hamper innovation and growth?' Alberto Russo & ‘A simple formalisation of Minsky's business cycle theory’ by Rob Jump
DESCRIPTION:‘Does inequality hamper innovation and growth?’ by Alberto Russo (Marche Polytechnic University) \nAbstract: The paper builds upon the Agent Based-Stock Flow Consistent model presented in Caiani et al. (2015) to analyze the relationship between income and wealth inequality and economic development. For this sake\, the original model has been amended under three main dimensions: first\, the households sector has been subdivided into workmen\, office workers\, researchers\, and executives which compete on segmented labor markets.  Conversely\, firms are now characterized by a hierarchical organization structure which determines\, according to firms’ output levels\, their demand for each type of workers. Second\, in order to account for the impact of income and wealth distribution on consumption patterns\, different households classes – also representing different income groups – have diversified average propensities to consume and save. Finally\, the model now embeds technological change in an evolutionary flavor\, affecting labor productivity evolution in the consumption sector through product innovation in the capital sector\, where firms invest in R&D and produce differentiated vintages of machineries. The model is then calibrated using realistic values for both income and wealth distribution across different income groups\, and their average propensities to consume. Results of the simulation experiments suggest that more progressive tax schemes and labor market policies aiming to increase low and middle workers’ coordination\, and to support their wage levels\, concur to foster economic development and to reduce inequality\, though the latter seem to be more effective under both respects. The model thus provides some evidence in favor of a wage-led growth regime\, where improvements of middle-low levels workers’ conditions create positive systemic effects\, which eventually trickle up also to high income-profit earners households. \n‘A simple formalisation of Minsky’s business cycle theory’ by Rob Jump (Kingston University) \nAbstract: This paper presents a simple model of Minsky’s business cycle theory. The model is based on the Phillips (1954) continuous time multiplier accelerator model\, where firms have a target debt to income ratio\, rather than a target capital to income ratio. Via a strategy switching mechanism\, fluctuations with a smaller perceived volatility lead to firms reducing their margins of safety by moving towards higher debt to income ratios. This increases volatility\, the economy is destabilised\, and firms increase their margins of safety by moving towards lower debt to income ratios. Hence the cycle repeats itself\, and “stability is destabilising”.  The simple model relies on an approximate aggregation assumption\, and we estimate the approximation bias numerically using techniques from agent based modelling. \nPlease join us for this event as part of the Economic Department Research Seminar Series\, it is free to attend. \nBooking and further information: http://www.kingston.ac.uk/events/item/2502/22-mar-2017-economics-research-seminar-with-alberto-russo-and-rob-jump/ \nContact: Antoine Godin (A.Godin@kingston.ac.uk) \nVenue: JG 3013 \nHow to find us: The seminar takes place at Penryhn Road Campus (Kingston upon Thames\, Surrey\, KT1 2EE).

SUMMARY:St Catharine's Political Economy Seminar - '‘Expansionary Fiscal Policy – Open Economy Issues’\, Jonathan Perraton
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday 8 March 2017\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Jonathan Perraton\nTalk Title: ‘‘Expansionary Fiscal Policy – Open Economy Issues’\nLocation: Ramsden Room\, St Catharine’s College \nThe next St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar in the series on the Economics of Austerity\, will be held on 08 March\, 2017 – Jonathan Perraton will give a talk on ‘Expansionary Fiscal Policy – Open Economy Issues’. The seminar will be held in the Ramsden Room at St Catharine’s College from 6.00-7.30 pm. All are welcome. The seminar series is supported by the Cambridge Journal of Economics and the Economics and Policy Group at the Judge Business School. \nSpeaker:\nJonathan Perraton is Senior Lecturer in Economics at the University of Sheffield and an Associate Fellow of the Sheffield Political Economy Research Institute. He has published on economic globalisation\, balance of payments constrained growth\, political economy and economic methodology. He is a past coordinator of the Post-Keynesian Economics Study Group. \nTalk Overview:\nMuch of the recent discussion of expansionary fiscal policy has abstracted from open economy issues. The degree of openness of an economy would be expected to affect the multiplier; further\, the size\, composition and financing of any expansionary package would be expected to affect the real exchange rate. Some studies have indicated particular responses here from public infrastructure investment. The response of interest rates determined in global markets is crucial; this is related here to earlier economics and political economy work on the feasibility of Keynesian policies under globalisation. Some of this earlier work pointed to possible risk premium effects limiting the effectiveness of Keynesian policies. This work is revisited\, drawing on evidence from before and since the Global Financial Crisis. \nPlease contact the seminar organisers Philip Arestis (pa267@cam.ac.uk) and Michael Kitson (m.kitson@jbs.cam.ac.uk) in the event of a query.

SUMMARY:St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar – ‘‘Beyond Austerity and Stimulus: Broadening Capital Acquisition with the Earnings of Capital as a Means to Sustainable Fuller Employment and Growth’\, Robert Ashford
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday 10 May 2017\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Robert Ashford\nTalk Title: ‘‘Beyond Austerity and Stimulus: Broadening Capital Acquisition with the Earnings of Capital as a Means to Sustainable Fuller Employment and Growth’\nLocation: Ramsden Room\, St Catharine’s College \nThe next St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar in the series on the Economics of Austerity\, will be held on 10 May\, 2017 – Robert Ashford will give a talk on ‘Beyond Austerity and Stimulus: Broadening Capital Acquisition with the Earnings of Capital as a Means to Sustainable Fuller Employment and Growth’. The seminar will be held in the Ramsden Room at St Catharine’s College from 6.00-7.30 pm. All are welcome. The seminar series is supported by the Cambridge Journal of Economics and the Economics and Policy Group at the Judge Business School. \nSpeaker:\nRobert Ashford is Bond\, Schoeneck & King Distinguished Professor of Law at Syracuse University\, where he teaches or has taught courses in Business Associations\, Business Planning\, Public Corporations\, Professional Responsibility\, Secured Transactions\, Securities Regulation\, and Inclusive Capitalism. He holds a J.D. with honors from Harvard Law School\, and a B.A. with majors in physics and English literature\, graduating first in his class at the University of South Florida. He was a Woodrow Wilson Fellow at Stanford University.\nProfessor Ashford has authored or co-authored books\, articles\, and book chapters on subjects including banking\, binary economics\, history of economic thought\, inclusive capitalism\, professional responsibility\, socio-economics\, and tax law. His scholarship has been cited by state and federal courts\, including the United States Supreme Court. He has lectured at universities and conferences in Australia\, Canada\, France\, Greece\, Indonesia\, Italy\, Switzerland\, the United Kingdom\, and throughout the U.S.A. His biography appears in editions of Marquis Who’s Who since 2011. Professor Ashford is founder and principal organizer of the Section on Socio-Economics of the Association of American Law Schools\, the Society of Socio-Economists\, and a member of the academic honour societies of Phi Kappa Phi and Sigma Pi Sigma (physics)\, and the American Law Institute. \nTalk Overview:\nTo achieve fuller employment of labour and capital and enhanced earnings of poor and middle-class people\, austerity advocates advance the laissez faire approach grounded in neoclassical theory\, and stimulus advocates advance various versions of Keynesian theory. The presentation offers a different strategy (broadening competitive market opportunities to acquire capital with the earnings of capital) resting on a different theory of fuller employment) (the prospect of more broadly distributed capital earnings in future years provides incentives to profitably employ more labour and capital in earlier years). This theory of fuller employment is similar to Keynesian theory but distinct and complementary because it operates in the long run as well as the short run and requires no redistribution. Based on the theory\, modest changes in the system of corporate finance will enable market participants to price the value of more broadly distributed capital acquisition. Predicted results include (1) enhanced earnings for poor and middle-class people\, (2) enhanced corporate profits and growth\, (3) reduced need for welfare dependence\, government spending\, borrowing\, and taxes\, and (4) enhanced sovereign creditworthiness. These predicted results\, if realized\, surpass expectations based on mainstream theories and will make both austerity and stimulus strategies more affordable and politically feasible. \nPlease contact the seminar organisers Philip Arestis (pa267@cam.ac.uk) and Michael Kitson (m.kitson@jbs.cam.ac.uk) in the event of a query.

SUMMARY:St Catharine's Political Economy Seminar Series - 'Whose Recovery?’\, Andy Haldane
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday 22 February 2017\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Andy Haldane\nTalk Title: ‘Whose Recovery?’\nLocation: Mill Lane Lecture Room 1 \nThe next St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar in the series on the Economics of Austerity\, will be held on 22 February\, 2017 – Andy Haldane will give a talk on “Whose Recovery?”. The seminar will be held in the Mill Lane Lecture Room 1 from 6.00-7.30 pm. All are welcome. The seminar series is supported by the Cambridge Journal of Economics and the Economics and Policy Group at the Judge Business School. \nSpeaker\nAndy Haldane is the Chief Economist at the Bank of England and Executive Director\, Monetary Analysis and Statistics. He is a member of the Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee. He also has responsibility for research and statistics across the Bank. In 2014\, TIME magazine named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Andy has written extensively on domestic and international monetary and financial policy issues. He is co-founder of ‘Pro Bono Economics’\, a charity which brokers economists into charitable projects. \nTalk overview\nAndy Haldane will talk on the issue of at an aggregate level\, there has been a strong recovery in the UK economy over the past three years and a dramatic improvement in the jobs market. For many\, the economic recovery has been visible and tangible – in sales\, in jobs\, in investment. But for others it is barely visible and for some non-existent. Put differently\, whose recovery are we actually talking about? This economic recovery has varied considerably across different dimensions depending on: where in the country you live\, how old you are\, what assets you own and your income level. For growth to be sustainable and strong it needs to be inclusive and comprehensive.\nThis talk will discuss how we might reconcile the macro data with these micro accounts\, and what role public policy should seek to play over time to close these fault-lines and achieve inclusive and sustainable rises in societal well-being. \nPlease contact the seminar organisers Philip Arestis (pa267@cam.ac.uk) and Michael Kitson (m.kitson@jbs.cam.ac.uk) in the event of a query.

He has published numerous articles in international peer-refereed journals\, including the Cambridge Journal of Economics\, Oxford Review of Economic Policy\,International Review of Applied Economics\, Journal of Post Keynesian Economics\, British Journal of Industrial Relations\, Environment and Planning A\, New Political Economy\, and Socio-Economic Review. Recent books include Wage-Led Growth. An Equitable Strategy for Economic Recovery. \nTalk overview:\nThe paper proposes a post-Keynesian analysis of the Eurozone crisis and contrasts interpretations inspired by New Keynesian\, New Classical\, and Marxist theories. The origin of the crisis is the emergence of a debt-driven and an export-driven growth model\, which resulted in rapid increase in private debt ratios and current account imbalances. The reason the crisis escalated in southern Europe\, but not in other parts of the world\, lies in the unique dysfunctional economic policy regime of the Euro area. European fiscal rules and the Troika impose fiscal austerity on countries in crisis and the separation of fiscal and monetary spaces has made countries vulnerable to sovereign debt crises and forced them to comply. We analyse the role different paradigms attribute to current account imbalances\, fiscal policy and monetary policy. Remarkably\, opposing views on the relative importance of cost and demand developments in explaining current account imbalances can be found in both heterodox and orthodox economics. Regarding the assessment of fiscal and monetary policy there is a clearer polarisation\, with heterodox analysis regarding austerity as unhelpful and large parts of orthodox economics endorsing it. We conclude that there is a weak mapping between post-Keynesian\, New Classcial\, New Keynesian and Marxist theories and different economic policy strategies for the Euro area\, which we label Keynesian New Deal\, European Orthodoxy\, Moderate Reform and Progressive Exit respectively. \nPlease contact the seminar organisers Philip Arestis (pa267@cam.ac.uk) and Michael Kitson (m.kitson@jbs.cam.ac.uk) in the event of a query.
