Global Imbalances, Power Relations, and Historical Perspectives

This is the Second Edition of the YSI Workshop on The Political Economy of Growth and Distribution: Global Imbalances, Power Relations, and Historical Perspectives. The event emphasizes the international and regional core-periphery divide within the framework of the political economy of growth and distribution. It will explore how these imbalances are intertwined with state-power relations and how these dynamics have evolved throughout history. We aim to address these topics favoring an interdisciplinary approach, bringing together perspectives on political economy, macroeconomics, economic history, political sciences, and social sciences. This is a valuable opportunity for graduate students and early-career researchers to present their work and receive constructive feedback from colleagues and experts. It is also a chance for participants to share ideas, discuss current research, and form potential collaborations.
