M. Sahlins, “L’economia dell’età della pietra”, a cura di R. Marchionatti (Elèuthera 2020)
28 Oct 2020

Marshall Sahlins L’economia dell’età della pietra Elèuthera traduzione di Lucio Trevisan A cura di Roberto Marchionatti Prefazione di David Graeber Ottobre 2020, 456 pp. EAN 9788833020648 Pagina web sul sito dell’editore Sfatando i pregiudizi etnocentrici, Sahlins ci mostra come le cosiddette economie di sussistenza delle società «primitive» abbiano in realtà consentito un’esistenza più sana, sostenibile e appagante di quella insalubre, insostenibile e inappagante consentita dalla moderna economia industriale e agricola. Una ricerca rigorosa (e provocatoria) che attesta come l’economia sia una categoria culturale più che comportamentale e abbia a che fare più con la politica e la religione che con Continua / Read more →

22 Oct 2020

On the 21st of October 2020, after a short, tragic illness, Fabio Ranchetti (1948-2020) passed away. He was an economist, a historian of economic thought, a teacher devoted to his students, a learned man, an erudite scholar, an open minded person, who enriched our discipline, encompassing in his wide culture political economy, philosophy, linguistics, literature. With a strong philosophic background due to his studies in philosophy in Milan, then at the Trinity College in Cambridge, a crucial period in his life, Fabio Ranchetti conceived economics as fully belonging to moral an political philosophy, and deeply linked to mathematics, logics and Continua / Read more →

“Challenges for the Future of the Economy: Brazil at Crossroad” (BAS – Accademia dei Lincei webinar)
20 Nov 2020

Brazilian Academy of Sciences and Accademia dei Lincei Webinar Since the 1980s the Brazilian economy has faced deindustrialization and quasi-stagnation. The austerity policy implemented since 2015 has not been able to activate the confidence of private agents and recover growth rates. In a global scenario of deep recession caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the impact is particularly severe to developing countries, such as Brazil, as they depend on international currencies. The Brazilian monetary authorities have already announced the return of austerity policies in the post-pandemic. Will this restore the already shaken confidence of economic agents to produce the resumption of Continua / Read more →
CfP – Special Issue of “Economia Politica” on Pandemics, Women and the Global South
18 Nov 2020

Epidemics and pandemics have a devastating effect on all sections of society, as evidenced most recently in the recent COVID-19 crisis. These events invariably have a disproportionate effect on some sections of the population. Emerging evidence indicates that while women often tend to be less vulnerable to the disease in terms of morbidity and mortality (barring comorbidities), they bear a disproportionately larger brunt of the economic and social disruptions that accompany these public health disasters. This is especially so for women in poor households in the Global South, and race and ethnicity can create special vulnerabilities, as noted under Covid-19. Existing Continua / Read more →
Rete Italiana Post-Keynesiana: primo workshop, 27 novembre 2020
28 Oct 2020

La pandemia di Covid-19 ha fatto sprofondare le economie mondiali in una recessione senza precedenti in tempo di pace. Alle conseguenze che la crisi sta avendo sull’occupazione e i livelli di reddito della grande maggioranza dei cittadini, si sommano gli effetti di una drammatica accelerazione delle disuguaglianze sociali. Tutto ciò impone scelte di politica economica innovative e un radicale ripensamento dell’intervento pubblico in economia per la ricostruzione del dopo pandemia. Quale contributo può offrire la teoria economica post-keynesiana? Ne parleremo al primo workshop della neonata rete italiana post-keynesiana (IPKN – Italian Post-Keynesian Network). La rete ha l’obiettivo di promuovere iniziative Continua / Read more →
