SUMMARY:St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar – 'Brexit and the Political Economy of ‘Populism’\, Yiannis Kitromilides
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday 25 January 2017\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Yiannis Kitromilides\nTalk Title: ‘Brexit and the Political Economy of ‘Populism’\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 25 January\, 2017 – Yiannis Kitromilides will give a talk on “Brexit and the Political Economy of ‘Populism'”. 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\nYiannis Kitromilides is Associate Member of the Cambridge Centre of Economic and Public Policy\, Department of Land Economy\, University of Cambridge. He has previously taught at the University of Greenwich\, the University of Westminster\, the University of Middlesex and the School of Oriental and African Studies\, University of London. His main research interests are in the areas of European Monetary Integration\, Reform of Banking\, Economics of Climate Change and the Political Economy of Economic Policy-making. His most recent publications include papers on the political economy of the austerity strategy\, Greece and the eurozone crisis\, Technocracy and public policy-making and the EU after ‘Brexit’. \nTalk Overview\nThe unexpected electoral success of both the ‘leave’ campaign in the UK referendum and of Donald Trump in the US presidential elections has been widely attributed to the rise of right-wing ‘populism’. It is predicted that this phenomenon is likely to be repeated in other parts of Europe and the World. This is to be contrasted with left-wing ‘populism’ which produced the recent electoral successes of the anti-austerity movements of Syriza in Greece and Podemos in Spain. ‘Populism’ appears to provide an explanation for the electoral successes of both left-wing and right-wing movements. The concept of ‘populism’ is subject to many different\, often conflicting\, interpretations and definitions. The paper examines the different varieties of ‘populism’ and concludes that given its elusive nature the widespread use of the term as an explanation of recent surprising electoral outcomes is of rather limited usefulness. Regarding ‘Brexit’\nthe paper discusses an alternative explanation for the electoral outcome of the UK referendum as ‘an accident waiting to happen’. \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:Kingston Economic Department Research Seminar Series – ‘Minsky models: a structured survey' Maria Nikolaidi & Engelbert Stockhammer & 'Monetary policy and complexity in behavioural New Keynesian models' Rob Jump
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Kingston Economic Department Research Seminar Series \nDate: Wednesday 14 December 2016\nTime: 4.00pm – 6.00pm\nVenue: JG 4006 (John Galsworthy building)\nPrice: free\nBooking and further information: http://www.kingston.ac.uk/events/item/2303/14-dec-2016-economics-research-seminar-with-maria-nikolaidi-and-rob-jump/\nContact: Antoine Godin (A.Godin@kingston.ac.uk) \n‘Minsky models: a structured survey ‘ by Maria Nikolaidi (Greenwich University) and Engelbert Stockhammer (Kingston University) \nAbstract: Minsky cycles have recently gained prominence in the mainstream as well as in the heterodox literature. However\, there exists no agreement upon the formal presentation of the Minsky models. This paper surveys the existing literature and offers a unified framework to compare the different approaches. It turns out that Minskyan models differ in substantive ways as regards the goods market adjustment\, the dynamics of debt and the role of asset prices. The aim of this paper is to survey the literature\, clarify the differences and suggest a structure to classify Minsky-inspired models.\n‘Monetary policy and complexity in behavioural New Keynesian models’ by Rob Jump (Kingston University) \nAbstract: This paper studies the implications of bounded rationality and internal rationality for the conduct of monetary policy in the standard New Keynesian (NK) model. We demonstrate the conditions under which standard (Euler learning) bounded rationality and the more realistic internal rationality leads to instability in the NK model using analytical techniques\, and we demonstrate the conditions under which reinforcement learning leads to instability in the NK model using numerical techniques. We explore the extent to which an appropriate monetary policy can mitigate instability in the NK model under different types of learning and rationality. \nHow to find us: The seminar takes place at Penryhn Road Campus (Kingston upon Thames\, Surrey\, KT1 2EE). Public Transport: take train from London Waterloo to Surbiton (20 mins approx.) and walk (15 mins approx.) or buses 71\, 281\, K2\, K3 (5 mins approx.) from Surbiton Station to Kingston University.

SUMMARY:Kingston Economic Department Research Seminar Series – ‘Much of the ‘economics of property rights’ devalues property and legal rights' Geoffrey Hodgson
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of the Kingston Economic Department Research Seminar Series. \nDate: Wednesday 30 November 2016\nTime: 4.00pm – 6.00pm\nVenue: JG 4006 (John Galsworthy building)\, Penryhn Road Campus\, Kingston upon Thames\nPrice: free\nBooking and further information: http://www.kingston.ac.uk/events/item/2339/30-nov-2016-economics-research-seminar-with-geoffrey-hodgson-and-bill-dunn/\nContact: Antoine Godin (A.Godin@kingston.ac.uk) \n‘Much of the ‘economics of property rights’ devalues property and legal rights’ by Geoffrey Hodgson (University of Hertfordshire)\, see also: http://newpolitics.apps-1and1.net/property-when-ludwig-von-mises-got-into-bed-with-karl-marx \nAbstract: Legal theorists and other commentators have long established a distinction between property and possession. According to this usage adopted here\, possession refers to control of a resource\, but property involves legally sanctioned rights. Strikingly\, prominent foundational accounts of the ‘economics of property rights’ concentrate on possession\, downplaying the issue of legitimate legal rights (Alchian\, 1965\, 1977; Barzel\, 1994\, 1997\, 2002; von Mises\, 1981). Some authors in this genre make a distinction between ‘economic rights’ and ‘legal rights’ where the former are more to do with possession or the capacity to control. They argue that ‘economic rights’ are primary and more relevant for understanding behaviour. But it is argued here that legal factors – involving recognition of authority and perceived justice or morality – have also to be brought into the picture to understand human motivation in modern societies\, even in the economic sphere. As other authors including Hernando De Soto (2000) have pointed out\, the neglect of the legal infrastructure that buttresses property has deleterious implications\, including a failure to understand the role of property in supporting collateralized loans for innovation and economic development. \n‘Putting finance in its place: Marx\, Keynes and the interstate system ‘ by Bill Dunn (University of Sidney) \nAbstract: The paper argues that Marxist theories of money and finance remain underdeveloped and can be enriched by a critical appropriation of Keynesian insights. It advocates a theory of money and finance based on the mutual but asymmetrical interrelations of class\, capital and state institutions. It argues that accepting a Marxist epistemology and the conceptual priority of social relations of production requires rather than denies acknowledging an active financial agency. However\, this agency is socially constructed and constrained. With the appropriate conceptual level of ‘the social’ seen as essentially global\, this also involves\, amongst other things\, discarding the exogenous / endogenous distinction but seeing states and their financial power\, like that of other institutions\, as framed within rather than as external to the social relations of production. \nHow to find us: The seminar takes place at Penryhn Road Campus (Kingston upon Thames\, Surrey\, KT1 2EE). Public Transport: take train from London Waterloo to Surbiton (20 mins approx.) and walk (15 mins approx.) or buses 71\, 281\, K2\, K3 (5 mins approx.) from Surbiton Station to Kingston University.

SUMMARY:'The Ontology of Terrorism' with Professor Barry Smith
DESCRIPTION:‘The Ontology of Terrorism’ with Professor Barry Smith. \nDate: 9th of Nov 2016\nVenue: School of Oriental and African Studies\, London\, Russell Square\, Room L67 (main Building of Soas)\nTime: 4-6 pm \nAbstract:\nNotoriously\, intelligence agencies face the problem of Connecting the Dots. Connecting\, here\, means not only cross-identifying the individuals referred to in different sources\, but also combining in useful ways all the data about such individuals. Ontologies allow analysts to harvest combinable information from messy inputs by providing consistent sets of terms for describing the entities involved. Suppose\, for example\, that ontology terms have been used to tag collections of heterogeneous source data about\, say\, persons in Baghdad. Analysts can then use the results to identify all available data regarding\, say\, persons who speak Armenian\, or persons with expertise in Java programming; and they can do this independently of the type of data (text\, images\, audio)which served as inputs. To be effective\, however\, ontologies need to contain not just terms but also definitions. To illustrate how this works we will consider some simple examples of ontology building\, concluding with an ontological approach to the definition of terrorism. \nShort Bio:\nBarry Smith studied philosophy in Oxford and Manchester\, and currently works in the University at Buffalo\, NY\, where he is Director of the National Center for Ontological Research. Smith’s work in applied ontology is well known especially in the fields of biology and medicine\, but his ideas are now being applied in a range of different military and intelligence initiatives. He has worked also on ontology projects relating to legal and economic institutions\, and since 2000 he has served as consultant to Hernando de Soto\, Director of the Institute for Liberty and Democracy in Peru\, on projects relating to the advancement of property and business rights among the poor in developing countries.

SUMMARY:Kingston Economic Department Research Seminar Series - Davoud Taghawi-Nejad (University of Oxford) and Willem Spanjers (Kingston University)
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday 26 October 2016\nTime: 4.00pm – 6.00pm\nVenue: JG 4006 (John Galsworthy building)\nPrice: free \n‘Web-Enabled Policy Advice – Modelling the Saudi Arabian Labour Market’ by Davoud Taghawi-Nejad (University of Oxford) \nBooking and further information: http://www.kingston.ac.uk/events/item/2338/26-oct-2016-economics-research-seminar-with-davoud-taghawinejad-and-willem-spanjers/\nContact: Antoine Godin (A.Godin@kingston.ac.uk) \nAbstract: One of Saudi Arabia’s principal problems is unemployment of Saudi nationals\, which is\, at least partially\, caused by the fact that seven million expatriates reside in the country and hold the majority of the available jobs. In order to address this problem we created a data-driven agent-based policy simulator of the Saudi labour market. The purpose of our model was to evaluate Saudi Arabia’s policy options to increase employment of Saudi nationals: taxes on expatriates\, quotas\, and minimum wages (in general and for expatriates).\nThe model consists of Saudi and expatriate workers and Firms that hire employees. Firms prefer to hire workers with the best productivity – cost profile\, but hire in accordance with the law. Their behaviour has been calibrated with time-series and firm-level data. It is possible to run the simulation with different policies\, which influence the firm’s decisions and therefore the simulation outcomes. With the agent-based model we showed the best policy answer for each sector. This model was delivered not only as part of an academic paper but also as a web-enabled policy simulator. Beyond testing and designing policy\, the model could also be used to train policymakers’ intuition and understanding of the labour market. In the second half of the talk I will address the use of policy simulators in policy advice and our experience in working with the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Labour in particular. \n‘Liquidity Provision\, Ambiguous Asset Returns and the Financial Crisis’ by Willem Spanjers (Kingston University) \nAbstract: For an economy with dysfunctional intertemporal financial markets the financial sector is modelled as a competitive banking sector offering deposit contracts. In a setting similar to Allen and Gale (1998\, [1]) properties of the optimal liquidity provision are analysed for illiquid assets with ambiguous returns. In the context of the model\, ambiguity – i.e. incalculable risk – leads to dynamically inconsistent investor behaviour. If the financial sector fails to recognize the presence of ambiguity\, unanticipated fundamental crises may occur\, which are incorrectly blamed on investors ‘loosing their nerves’ and ‘panicking’.\nThe basic mechanism of the current financial crisis resembles a banking panic in the presence of ambiguous asset returns. The combination of providing additional liquidity and supporting distressed financial institutions implements the regulatory policy suggested by the model.\nA credible commitment to such ‘bail-out policy’ does not create a moral hazard problem. Rather\, it implements the second best efficient outcome by discouraging excessive caution. Reducing ambiguity by increasing stability\, transparency and predictability – as suggested by ordo-liberalism and the ‘Freiburger Schule’ – enhances ex-ante welfare. \nHow to find us: The seminar takes place at Penryhn Road Campus (Kingston upon Thames\, Surrey\, KT1 2EE). Public Transport: take train from London Waterloo to Surbiton (20 mins approx.) and walk (15 mins approx.) or buses 71\, 281\, K2\, K3 (5 mins approx.) from Surbiton Station to Kingston University.

SUMMARY:'Maynard Keynes in King’s College and the General Theory of Employment\, Interest and Money' Conference
DESCRIPTION:The event will feature remarks from the leading UK and US post-Keynesian scholars Victoria Chick and Paul Davidson. Three presentations will give accounts of post-war policy\, contrasting the golden age with the liberalised era\, in Germany (by Jörg Bibow)\, the UK (by myself) and France (by Renaud du Tertre and Hélène de Largentaye). \nThe event is organised jointly by Hélène de Largentaye and Jean Michel Massing.  Hélène graduated in economics from Kings and was the first Secretary General of the Conseil d’analyse economique\, founded by the French socialist Prime Minister ( 1997-2002) . Her father translated the General Theory into French in 1939  just before  the  advent of the Vichy regime which delayed the publication until 1942. Hélène will tell this fascinating story with Ghislain Deleplace\, and Harald Hagemann will discuss the German translation (1936) . \nJean Michel has also organised morning sessions around Keynes’s wider interests\, in particular his art collection and his book collection. \nThe full programme and further information about the event can be found here: www.kingsmembers.org/KeynesConference. \nLast registration is 23 September 2016. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Cities in Transformation: Processes\, Problems and Policies
DESCRIPTION:Major cities are facing an unprecedented set of economic\, social and environmental challenges. There is mounting evidence that cities are demonstrating very different capacities to adapt\, cope with\, and respond to such challenges and this is leading to diverse and unpredictable outcomes. The aim of this conference is to examine the different experiences of cities as they transform. The first part of the conference (morning of Thursday 14 July)\, will give an overview of cities in transformation in various parts of the world (e.g. United Kingdom\, Germany\, United States\, China). The afternoon of Thursday 14 July will then be dedicated to a discussion of the implications for policies to address spatially unbalanced growth among the cities. The sessions on Friday 15 July are reserved for particular aspects of urban transformation and resilience (e.g. role of institutions\, implications of new technologies\, consequences of austerity\, possibilities offered by big data and smart city technologies\, etc.).
