PERC Events

In case I haven't already tweeted about it enough, I've been in the process of setting up a new Political Economy Research Centre (PERC) at Goldsmiths over the last few months, together with some great colleagues. PERC sits alongside our new heterodox PPE degree, which is currently in its first year.

You can read about our research ambitions and interests on the website. Hopefully there will be projects and publications to follow. In the meantime, here are two events that are open to all (registration via Eventbrite links is required), both at Goldsmiths:

• 'From REcovery to DIScovery: changing the terms of debate on the economy' - 19th-20th March. Speakers include Andrew Gamble, Ann Pettifor and Steve Keen. Registration here.

• ' What Can Economics Learn from Science Fiction?' - 23rd March, 5.30pm. Lecture by Ha-Joon Chang, followed by drinks reception. Registration here.

Neoliberalism discussion on Novara

Last week I was a guest on Novara FM, to discuss neoliberalism with Aaron Bastani. You can listen to the show here.

In case that's not enough neoliberalism discussion, I gave a talk on a similar topic of 'what is neoliberalism?' at The Big Ideas last summer, which is available here.
