The transformations required will be social\, technological\, and economic. Some discussion of how these might come about will be sketched out in various science fictional scenarios\, including a best-case result you can still believe in. About the speaker The public intellectual Kim Stanley Robinson is an acclaimed award-winning radical science fiction author of more than 20 books\, and many essays and short stories. His works\, through the lens of an inherently political genre\, present the possibility of an alternate future to the ecological devastation created by capitalism. A speaker at the UN’s COP-26 Climate Change Conference in Glasgow (1-12 November 2021)\, his works include this essay recently published in The Financial Times A climate plan for a world in flames (https://3quarksdaily.com/3quarksdaily/2021/08/kim-stanley-robinson-a-climate-plan-for-a-world-in-flames.html ) his book The Ministry for the Future (https://www.australianbookreview.com.au/abr-online/current-issue/883-fiction/6892-j-r-burgmann-reviews-the-ministry-for-the-future-by-kim-stanley-robinson ) and an insightful talk Rethinking our Relationship with the Biosphere (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=489I0gZlepM). About the Wheelwright Lecture The annual E.L. ‘Ted’ Wheelwright Memorial Lecture (https://www.ppesydney.net/wheelwright-lecture/ ) is held to commemorate the pioneering role that Ted Wheelwright played in developing studies in Political Economy in Australia. \nEstablished in 2008\, previous Wheelwright speakers include: Susan Ferguson\, Jayati Ghosh and Adam Tooze (2020)\, Susanne Soederberg (2019)\, Alfredo Saad-Filho (2018)\, Katherine Gibson (2017)\, David Ruccio (2016)\, Erik Olin Wright (2015)\, Leo Panitch (2014)\, Susan George (2013)\, Diane Elson (2012)\, Sheila Dow (2011)\, Fred Block (2010)\, Jim Stanford (2009)\, and Walden Bello (2008).

SUMMARY:"What's Wrong with Economics?" CSEP hosts Lord Robert Skidelsky
DESCRIPTION:15th NOVEMBER\, 5.30PM @ OLD DIVINITY SCHOOL\, ST JOHN’S COLLEGE\, CAMBRIDGE \nThe Cambridge Society for Economic Pluralism is greatly honoured to host Lord Professor Robert Skidelsky\, – reputed author\, economic historian\, biographer of Keynes\, and life-peer of the House of Lords – to speak on his latest book ‘What’s Wrong with Economics? A Primer for the Perplexed.’ \nThis insightful book looks at how mainstream economics’ quest for scientific certainty has led to a narrowing of vision and a convergence on an orthodoxy that is unhealthy for the field\, not to mention the societies which base policy decisions on the advice of flawed economic models. Skidelsky’s clearly written and compelling critique takes aim at the way that economics is taught in today’s universities\, where a focus on modelling leaves students ill-equipped to grapple with what is important and true about human life. He argues for a return to the ideal set out by John Maynard Keynes that the economist must be a “mathematician\, historian\, statesman\, [and] philosopher” in equal measure. \nIn his talk\, Lord Skidelsky will cover:\n– The role of the state in economic growth and development\n– The limitations of equilibrium theorising in economic discourse\n– The use of behavioural economics in modelling social interactions more realistically\n– The role of ideology and power in shaping economic theory\n– The ethical dimensions of economics and market economies\n– The future of the economy and economics \nFollowing the talk\, there’ll be ample time to pose questions to Lord Skidelsky on any dimensions of his talk or book\, so come prepared! \nThe event is free and being a CSEP member is not required. However\, spaces are highly limited so sign-up ASAP to avoid disappointment. \nRegister at Event Brite:\nhttps://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/lord-robert-skidelsky-whats-wrong-with-economics-tickets-192558275987?aff=ebdsoporgprofile

SUMMARY:St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar - "The Economics of Getting to Net Zero " Richard Lewney
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, 11 March 2020\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Richard Lewney\nTalk Title: “The Economics of Getting to Net Zero ”\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 March 2020. Richard Lewney will give a talk on “The Economics of Getting to Net Zero “. 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:\nRichard Lewney is Chair of Cambridge Econometrics. Over the past four years Richard Lewney has directed two major research projects for DG Energy to improve the methods of modelling the macroeconomic impacts of low-carbon policies. These have included a better treatment of the roles played by finance and innovation\, of regional and income distribution impacts\, and also of the relevance of other megatrends to the low-carbon transition. Over 2017-19 Richard Lewney has directed projects for the European Climate Foundation examining: (i) the technological costs and economic impacts of alternative pathways to a net-zero GHG emissions European economy by 2050 and (ii) the economic impacts of decarbonising road freight and car transport. Richard Lewney has previously directed a modelling analysis of the economic impact of environmental degradation to inform an assessment of the role that environmental risk factors could play in sovereign credit risk assessments (and for the UNEP Finance Initiative). \nTalk Overview:\nThe past year has seen some striking examples of extreme climatic events of the kind that scientists expect to grow in frequency and severity as global temperatures increase. It has also seen a strengthening of political activism in the climate strike movement and a flurry of activity among financial institutions seeking to understand their exposure to physical and transition risks. Neoclassical economics recognises environmental degradation as a classic example of an externality and frames its response in terms of correcting that market failure\, but the limitations of its marginal cost-benefit approach have been exposed in the climate change debate. This seminar explores the role that the key insights of Post-Keynesian and Schumpeterian economics (such as path dependence\, radical uncertainty\, heterogeneous actors\, the role of money and finance\, stock-flow consistency and endogenous technical change) are playing in forming an analysis of environmental policy that is better adapted to the challenge of tackling global warming. The seminar will discuss what a net zero energy system and economy might look like in 2050\, the policies needed to get there\, how to assess the economic impacts and what the key obstacles are that need to be overcome. \nPlease contact the seminar organisers Philip Arestis (pa267@cam.ac.uk) and Michael Kitson (mk24@cam.ac.uk) in the event of a query

SUMMARY:St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar - "The institutional capture of IPCC economics by neoclassical ideology" Terry Barker
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, 12 February 2020\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Terry Barker\nTalk Title: “The institutional capture of IPCC economics by neoclassical ideology”\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 12 February 2020 Terry Barker will give a talk on “The institutional capture of IPCC economics by neoclassical ideology”. 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:\nTerry Barker was a Coordinating Lead Author in the IPCC reports AR3 and AR4\, 1996-2006\, writing the chapters for sectoral mitigation. He was also a member of the team preparing the Synthesis Report for AR3\, covering climate science\, adaptation and mitigation. He led the writing group of scientists answering the question: “What are the most robust findings and key uncertainties … regarding model projections of …\ncosts and benefits of mitigation and adaptation options?” He is the Founder and Director of the Cambridge Centre for Climate Change Mitigation Research (4CMR) in Land Economy. He is now a Senior Departmental Fellow in Cambridge and holds an Honorary Chair in The School of Environmental Sciences\, University of East Anglia. He is also Founder and Director of Cambridge Econometrics Ltd. He has written extensively on Post Keynesian economics and climate change mitigation policies for the UK\, the EU\, and at the global scale. \nTalk Overview\nThe Assessment Reports (AR) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) bring together scientists from across disciplines to assess the literature on climate change\, adaptation and mitigation.\nMost of the reports are reviews of the literature\, which Terry Barker will not discuss\, but the IPCC authors also instigate substantial interdisciplinary exercises with climate and energy-economy models to make and report projections involving the policies and their economic costs required to achieve climate stabilisation. Terry Barker asserts that the economics behind the projections in AR5\, Mitigation of Climate Change\, 2014\, appear scientific but are the outcome of ideological assumptions about the economy\, typically based only on one year’s data.\nThe economic models used all involve General Equilibrium. Many are based on the premise that the global economy is in long-term optimal equilibrium\, such that any deviation from that equilibrium\, e.g. in the form of regulations and/or carbon taxes\, will _ipso facto_ lead to economic costs. Terry Barker will assess this and other aspects of this approach and the implications for the costs of radical cuts in emissions. \nPlease contact the seminar organisers Philip Arestis (pa267@cam.ac.uk) and Michael Kitson (mk24@cam.ac.uk) in the event of a query

SUMMARY:St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar – A Planner’s Perspective – The Use of Spatial Analysis for Policy Making in Border Regions’ Franziska Sielker
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, 29 January 2020\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Franziska Sielker\nTalk Title: ‘A Planner’s Perspective – The Use of Spatial Analysis for Policy Making in Border Regions’\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 29 January 2020 –Franziska Sielker will give a talk on “A Planner’s Perspective – The Use of Spatial Analysis for Policy Making in Border Regions”. 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:\nFranziska Sielker is a Lecturer\, Planning and Housing\, at the University of Cambridge in the Department of Land Economy. Before taking up the Lectureship\, Dr Sielker has been Lead Researcher on a project of ‘Future Cities in the Making- Overcoming Barriers to Information Modelling’\, funded by the Centre for Digital Built Britain and a British Academy Newton International Postdoc Fellow for a project on power relationships in European spatial policies. Frannziska Sielker has been Interim Professor and Acting Chair of the Chair of ‘International Planning Studies’ in the academic year 2018/2019 at the TU Dortmund University\, Germany. Her PhD was at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg in Human Geography. Her research interests cover European cohesion policies and spatial governance\, cross-border regions\, influences of foreign direct investments\, such as the Belt and Road Initiative\, on national planning processes and digitalisation in planning. Dr Sielker has published in terms of her research interests. \nTalk Overview\nHow do spatial planners make use of economic data? What are the differences in understanding spatial analysis? The Land Economy course is a genuine interdisciplinary course\, in which links between economic research and planning are crucial. Against this background\, my aim is threefold. First\, I introduce the differences in how planners and economists’ approach\, understand and use the same concepts and terms.\nSecond\, I outline how planners make use of economic indicators as one aspect within ‘spatial analysis’ to build narratives feeding into policy making. Third\, I illustrate regional development perspectives in the example of border regions\, understood as national\, regional and local borders. Traditionally\, cross-border integration is associated with an increasing economic integration. Yet\, often borders act ‘as a resource’\n(Sohn Christophe\, 2014). The talk illustrates how economic disparities and economic similarities can both play important roles in fostering cross-border spatial integration. In this talk\, I build on a development study of the Bavarian-Czech border\, as well as on the results of various research projects conducted between 2013 and 2019. \nPlease contact the seminar organisers Philip Arestis (pa267@cam.ac.uk) and Michael Kitson (mk24@cam.ac.uk) in the event of a query

SUMMARY:St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar – ‘Policies to promote low-carbon technological development’ by Hector Pollitt
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, 27 November 2019\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Hector Pollitt\nTalk Title: “Policies to promote low-carbon technological development”\nLocation: Ramsden Room\, St Catharine’s College \nSpeaker:\nHector Pollitt is the head of modelling at Cambridge Econometrics. He is a post-Keynesian economist with specific expertise in macro-sectoral economic modelling. He is currently researching linkages between post-Keynesian economics and complexity theory. At Cambridge Econometrics\, Hector Pollitt oversees the application of the E3ME macro-econometric model\, which treats the economy as a dynamic system that both shapes and is influenced by technological development. Using the E3ME model\, he has carried out high-level policy analysis for public authorities at UK\, EU and global levels. He has worked with the European Commission for over ten years and provided inputs to the recent assessment of the EU’s long-term decarbonisation strategy. His other recent work has shown how the development of low-carbon technologies could lead to long-run economic benefits. For example\, his modelling for the 2018 New Climate Economy report suggested that limiting global temperature change to 2°C could create $26trn of additional wealth by 2030. \nTalk Overview\nThe challenge to decarbonise the global economy is primarily one of technology development and diffusion. Policies that are popular with economists\, such as carbon taxes\, will not be effective at reducing emissions levels if consumers do not see affordable alternatives to fossil fuels. Furthermore\, without new technology options\, these policies are likely to cause social unrest. The solar revolution has given us conclusive proof that policy can influence both the direction and speed of technological development. This finding has important implications for policy makers and suggests that a much broader portfolio of measures is needed than basic carbon pricing measures.\nHowever\, successful innovation policy requires an understanding of the innovation chain\, right through from basic laboratory research to final commercialisation of products. Accelerating this process requires interventions at each point in the innovation chain. This seminar discusses the role of innovation policy in combating climate change. It will discuss the role of research in the private and public sectors\, and the interaction of incentives to innovate with other climate policies. \nPlease contact the seminar organisers Philip Arestis (pa267@cam.ac.uk) and Michael Kitson (mk24@cam.ac.uk) in the event of a query.

SUMMARY:St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar – ‘The End of History: The Political Economy of Post-Liberal Capitalism’ by Aleksandr Buzgalin
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, 13 November 2019\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Aleksandr Buzgalin\nTalk Title: ‘The End of History: The Political Economy of Post-Liberal Capitalism’\nLocation: Ramsden Room\, St Catharine’s College \nAll 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:\nAleksandr Buzgalin is professor at the department of Political Economy and director of the Center for Modern Marxist Studies at Lomonosov Moscow State University\, Russia\, and Editor in Chief of Questions of Political Economy (Russian bilingual academic journal). He is also vice president of the World Association for Political Economy (WAPE).  Buzgalin is the author of more then 400 publications\, including 23 books\, translated into a number of languages. His areas of research focus on methodological and fundamental aspects of political economy\, in particular contradictions of the late capitalism\, caused by the new technological transformations and new qualities of market\, money and capital in the era of creative revolution. Results of his research were published in Cambridge Journal of Economics\, Science & Society and other journals. He is also the author of books and articles in the sphere of development studies\, comparative analysis of economic systems and nature of Russian economy. \nTalk Overview\nThirty years ago\, Francis Fukuyama in his article ‘The End of History?’ formulated a thesis about the final victory of the neoliberal model of capitalism. But history does not stop. Two hundred years after the birth of Marx\, The Economist wrote that the millenial generation chooses socialism\, and the experts who prepared the report to the US president described socialism as the main threat. Alexander Buzgalin shows that the cause of these fears is the crisis of the existing system of economic relations and institutions of late capitalism. He systematizes the evidences of this crisis and shows\, that dominant political and economic elite is looking for a way out of the impasse on the paths of ‘neoliberal conservatism’ that integrates further de-socialization and deregulation in the economy with conservative-authoritarian trends in politics and ideology. At the end of the contribution\, Alexander Buzgalin reveals a number of ways of socialization\, humanization and ecologization of capitalism\, objectively conditioned by the progress of technologies and practices of civil society actors\, which differ from the existing social democratic projects that have proved to be of little effectiveness \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:St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar – ‘The Evolution of Sectarianism: A Political Economy Approach’ by Sebastian Ille
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, 30 October 2019\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Sebastian Ille\nTalk Title: ” The Evolution of Sectarianism: A Political Economy Approach”\nLocation: Rushmore Room\, St Catharine’s College \nAll 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:\nSebastian Ille is a Senior Lecturer in Economics at the New College of the Humanities and Editor-in-Chief of International Social Science Journal. His areas of expertise and interest focus on the impact of different types of rationality and interaction patterns on the dynamics defining institutions under decentralized decision-making. He also studies the elements of conflict\, especially the factors leading to revolutions and new social contracts. His fields of research include Institutional Economics\, Behavioural Economics\, Development Economics\, Identity Economics\, Evolutionary Game Theory\, Complex Systems and Agent-Based Modelling. He has published on various topics\, including theoretical papers on stochastic stability and meta-rationality\, and interdisciplinary research on identity economics\, rational atrocities and ISIS\, as well as forced private tutoring in Egypt. He is currently working on topics related to the Arab Spring in Egypt and on a textbook for social scientists on various mathematical approaches to modelling social systems and social change. \nTalk Overview\nThe tendency of humans to cooperate for reasons other than self-interest has long intrigued social scientists\, leading to a substantial literature in recent years. However\, its complement – sectarianism – has not received much attention in the economics literature despite its significant economic impact\, its growing importance in recent years and its socio-economic fundamentals. Based on an evolutionary approach\, the talk illustrates under which conditions sectarianism and sectarian conflict constitute an evolving property of a social system. The underlying model shows in which manner actions\, preferences\, economic institutions and sectarian identities co-evolve and suggests an extended constructivist perspective while contesting classical primordial or instrumentalist perspectives. Contrary to common perception\, I argue that sectarianism and sectarian conflict are not necessarily driven by a conflict over religious ideologies\, but by socio-economic and political grievances. Additionally\, the history of interaction and external exertion of influence are key to explaining the tendency for bigotry and hostility. \nPlease contact the seminar organisers Philip Arestis (pa267@cam.ac.uk) and Michael Kitson (mk24@cam.ac.uk) in the event of a query.

SUMMARY:St Catharine’s Political Economy Seminar – ‘A Democratic Measure of National Income' by Martin Weale
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, 16 October 2019\nTime: 18:00 -19:30\nSpeaker: Martin Weale\nTalk Title: ‘’A Democratic Measure of National Income’’\nLocation: Ramsden Room\, St Catharine’s College \nAll 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:\nMartin Weale is Professor at King’s College\, London. He joined King’s College in 2016 after completing two three-year terms as a member of the Monetary Policy Committee of the Bank of England. He had previously been the Director of the National Institute of Economic and Social Research from 1995 to 2010. In 2011 Queen Mary\, University of London appointed him a part-time Professor of Economics – a position he held until 2016.\nUntil 1995 he was a lecturer in Economics at the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of Clare College (B.A. 1977\, Sc.D. 2006). He was a member of the Statistics Commission from 2000 to 2008 and of the Board for Actuarial Standards from 2006 to 2011. Weale was appointed CBE for his services to Economics in 1999 and was elected an Honorary Fellow of the Institute of Actuaries in 2001. City University awarded him an honorary doctorate in 2007. \nTalk Overview:\nNational income per capita is widely used as the basis for comparing living standards in different countries. But conventional measures of national income growth are plutocratic. The growth in the incomes of people with initially high income had more influence on the aggregate than does the growth of the incomes of people with initially low income. This paper argues the case for constructing a democratic measure of national income growth\, the growth rate of the geometric mean of income per household – one which gives equal weight to the growth experience of each household\, whether its initial income is high or low.\nTo do this means allocating the whole of national income to households\, and a method of doing this is suggested. While the Living Conditions and Food Survey is the primary source\, issues of under-reporting have to be addressed. This is done by means of stochastic imputation on the basis of covariates. In order to produce a democratic measure of real income growth\, it is necessary to compute a democratic deflator – based on the average of each household’s expenditure shares rather than shares in total consumption. Deflation of the geometric mean of each household’s income by this deflator makes it possible to calculate a democratic measure of real income growth. As a result of declining household income inequality since the economic crisis this measure of real income has grown slightly faster than the plutocratic measure since 2006. \nPlease contact the seminar organisers Philip Arestis (pa267@cam.ac.uk) and Michael Kitson (mk24@cam.ac.uk) in the event of a query

SUMMARY:Rethinking the Political Economy of Place Conference
DESCRIPTION:Rethinking the Political Economy of Place: Challenges of Productivity\, Inclusion and Power Conference \nThis is the sixth Cambridge Journal of Regions\, Economy and Society Conference and it will be held on 11-12 July 2019 at St Catharine’s College\, Cambridge. \nThe shifting landscape of concerns and concepts in economic politics in places around the world\, calls for a rethinking of the political economy of place. Two of the key challenges – currently faced by cities\, regions\, nations and supranational institutions around the world – are improving productivity and fostering inclusion. This conference is looking to shed new light on these challenges\, in particular when these two challenges are taken in conjunction. We furthermore aim to set these challenges in a broader context. Relating these challenges to the implicit and explicit power structures and processes\, prevailing at various scales within contemporary capitalism. \nThe conference welcomes contributions and has a Call for Papers open. \n
