It is to think systematically about how the imposition of colonial rule still affects aspects of a society’s politics\, institutions and economic outcomes\, and in doing so to help better understand the challenges faced by modern developing economies.

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.

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).

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  URL:https://politicaleconomyhub.net/event/maynard-keyes-in-kings-college-and-the-general-theory-of-employment-interest-and-money-conference/ LOCATION:King’s College ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://politicaleconomyhub.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Keynesbookcover.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20161005T160000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20161005T180000 DTSTAMP:20260403T233110 CREATED:20160921T100700Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160921T104546Z UID:459-1475683200-1475690400@politicaleconomyhub.net SUMMARY:Empirical models of the UK economy Seminar DESCRIPTION:This event is part of the Economic Department Research Seminar Series.\nThe seminar is free of charge but booking is essential to attend the event. \nPresentations will include: \nKen Coutts and Graham Gudgin will deliver a paper entitled ‘An Empirical Keynesian Stock-Flow Consistent Model of the UK Economy with application to the post-referendum economy’. \nAntoine Godin will deliver a paper entitled ‘A dynamic model of financial balances for the United Kingdom’. \n  URL:https://politicaleconomyhub.net/event/empirical-models-of-the-uk-economy-seminar/ LOCATION:Kingston University\, Penrhyn Road\, Kingston\, Surrey\, \, KT1 2EE\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Conference END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20160714T090000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20160716T170000 DTSTAMP:20260403T233110 CREATED:20160413T082559Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160413T114325Z UID:431-1468486800-1468688400@politicaleconomyhub.net SUMMARY:An Introduction to Post Keynesian Economics and Political Economy DESCRIPTION:PKSG\, PERG Kingston and KU Rethinking Economics are organising a workshop on the ‘Introduction to Post Keynesian Econommics and Political Economy’. The workshop is aimed at students of economics and social sciences.

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.).
