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. Please register at https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/financialisation-and-the-periodisation-of-capitalism-tickets-33249567351.

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.
