Editors? Note
We are very excited to announce that the World Economics Association, heterodox and pluralist in its bones, has just launched. About 2,000 people have joined WEA since May 16. If you have not joined, go to the WEA website (http://www.worldeconomicsassociation.org) and become a member now (membership is free). With your support and participation, we can move the economics discipline beyond market fundamentalism. In this very respect, we?d like to draw your attention to a special issue call for papers (?Market-Fundamentalist Economics?) by an interdisciplinary journal, On the Horizon. Guest Editors of this special issue (Tae-Hee Jo, Lynne Chester, and Mary C. King) are inviting papers that ?highlight how practitioners of heterodox economics might differently advise policy makers around the globe to proceed, and how those policy programs might be supported by a re-formulated economic narrative which, in turn, would be shaped by re-designed economics curriculum, different approaches to pedagogy and funding for far wider research agendas, if heterodox economists were to receive the kind and level of support currently enjoyed solely by mainstream neoclassical economists.? One of the reasons that we, heterodox economists, should raise our voice against market fundamentalism is the takeover of academic institutions by businessmen. This is not new. Even Thorstein Veblen recognized the danger of such takeover a century ago. See what has happened in the economics department at Florida State University. On a slightly different line, we want heterodox economics associations to protest immediately the holdings of ASSA 2012 Chicago meetings in hotels ?which do not respect the rights of workers to fair wages, good benefits, and decent working conditions.? To no one?s surprise, according to the Paddy Quick?s (URPE) email, the American Economics Association does not care about this.A piece of good news for the readers of the Heterodox Economics Newsletter. M.E. Sharpe, one of major publishers of heterodox books and journals, has kindly offered 20% discount on all of their print titles. For more information, see here. Lastly, we are going to take a 7-week-long break. TJ will be traveling and TS will try to catch up on some of his own work.? The next issue of the Newsletter will be published on July 11. We may not be able to respond to your email during this period. All our best wishes, Tae-Hee Jo and Ted Schmidt, Editors Email: heterodoxnews@gmail.com

10th Conference of the Australian Society of Heterodox Economists
The relevance, contribution and future of Heterodox Economics
5-6 December 2011 | the Coogee Crowne Plaza Hotel, Sydney | website
Over the last 10 years, the annual SHE Conference has provided a vital forum for the discussion of alternatives to mainstream economics. The Conference provides a broad pluralistic and interdisciplinary forum to discuss issues of importance to heterodox economists.
For 2011 the SHE Conference theme is The relevance, contribution and future of Heterodox Economics
Topics of interest to this overarching theme include: the failure of neoclassical economics to predict, explain or find solutions to the global financial and economic crises; the current climate and energy crisis, nationally and internationally; the relationship of economists to policymaking and decision-makers; the teaching of heterodox economics; and, research evaluation and the impact of ERA ratings and rankings.

This year?s EuroMemo Group conference will be held in Vienna from 16-18 September 2011. The conference will open on the afternoon of Friday, 16 September with the customary plenary on the State of the Union. We are pleased to announce the two key speakers:
- The Political State of the Union, Birgit Mahnkopf (Berlin School of Economics and Law)
- The Economic State of the Union, Ozlem Onaran (Middlesex University, London)
We would like to invite you to attend the conference and to submit proposals for papers for one of the four workshops shown below. These should address the key themes of EU policy in each area.
Workshop 1: Austerity policies ? Coordinator: Marica Frangakis
Austerity policies are being imposed in a number of EU member states, most notably in the euro area periphery and in Central and Eastern Europe. This workshop aims to examine developments in specific countries, giving special emphasis to the degradation of social protection systems and of labour market institutions, and the implications for? youth unemployment and the organization of old-age security.
Workshop 2: The future of the eurozone ? Coordinator: Trevor Evans
Developments of the past year raise the danger of a disintegration of the eurozone.? As some members states struggle to deal with rising levels of public and private debt, the EU has promoted new governance measures that look set to exacerbate the situation. Contributions are invited that address macroeconomic imbalances, debt and the banking crisis, monetary policy and the role of the ECB, the European Stability Mechanism, and the Pact for the Euro.
Workshop 3: The EU and the world ? Coordinator: Werner Raza
Developments in neighbouring Mediterranean countries highlight just one of the international challenges faced by the EU. This workshop seeks papers that address the issues of migration, trade policy, EU development policies, as well as, more generally, the role of the EU in global governance, in particular the G20.
Workshop 4: Energy, climate change and sustainability, after Fukushima ? Coord.: Frieder O. Wolf
The crisis in Japan dramatically focused public attention on the pressing urgency for a fundamental change in energy policy. Papers are invited that will address the challenge of developing policies that promote social, economic and environmental sustainability.

Economics and Labour Relations Review: Carbon Markets ? Inherent Limitations and the Role of Complementary Policies
Special Symposium to be published in Economics and Labour Relations Review 2012
Symposium Editors: Paul Twomey and Neil Perry
CALL FOR PAPERS
The ascendancy of the use of market principles to address the problem of climate change has seen emissions trading schemes and carbon tax regimes dominate the policy agenda in a number of regions including Australia, Europe and North America. In recent high level discussions of the Climate Change Committee in Australia, the role of complementary instruments or policies to assist in moving Australia towards a low carbon economy have even been argued to be unnecessary once a carbon price is in place. In this context, the Economics and Labour Relations Review intends to publish a symposium during 2012 on the inherent limitations of the use of carbon markets (including the underlying capitalist logic) and the role or necessity of alternative and complementary policies to address the issue of climate change. We are seeking contributions that specifically address the current policy discussions in Australia or elsewhere.
NOTES TO CONTRIBUTORS
The primary focus of Economic and Labour Relations Review is on contemporary issues, developments and policymaking in the fields of economics and labour relations and we seek contributions that are accessible to policy makers and thus relatively non-technical. Academic contributions will undergo blind peer review by two referees and submissions are due on September 1, 2011 with the intended date of publication being January 2012.
If you are interested in contributing, please contact:
Visit here for further details on the technical requirements for submission.
Eighth Annual Historical Materialism Conference
10?13 November 2011 | Central London
Deadline extended to June 1
Feminist Economics: Engendering Economic Policy in Africa
Guest Editors: Caren A. Grown, Abena D. Oduro, and Irene van Staveren
In recent years, feminist economists and gender and development scholars have drawn attention to the adverse effects in Africa of policies associated with the Washington Consensus, including trade liberalization, strict anti-inflationary policies, and privatization of government functions. As these policies particularly disadvantage women and the poor, a variety of voices have emerged critiquing their underlying assumptions and renewing efforts to promote alternate pathways to gender equity, well- being, and sustainable economic development.
The special issue, planned for online publication in 2014 and print publication in 2015, will bring together new research aimed at challenging and improving economic policies in Africa. More generally, the special issue will provide a forum for feminist economists and scholars in relevant disciplines to analyze the interrelationships among macroeconomic reforms, gender inequalities, and the microeconomic channels that affect the well-being of women, their families, and their communities. The special issue will welcome both theoretical and empirical contributions, and analyses that rely on diverse research methodologies, including statistical analysis. Feminist Economics especially welcomes submissions from African scholars as well as others from the Global South.
Contributions may cover diverse topics, including but not limited to:
- Gender and poverty dimensions of macroeconomic policy, aid, and/or debt
- Enhancing food security and reducing livelihood risks using social protection
- Ensuring equitable growth and development in post-conflict economies
- Property rights and how they affect the ownership of assets by women and men
- Microfinance and the debate over its efficacy for women?s empowerment
- The care economy and the role of social policy
Deadline for abstracts:
Please direct queries and abstracts (500 words maximum) to the Guest Editors, Caren Grown (cgrown@american. edu), Abena D. Oduro (aoduro@ug.edu.gh), and Irene van Staveren (Staveren@iss.nl), no later than 1 September 2011.
If the Guest Editors approve an abstract, the complete manuscript will be due 1 April 2012 and should be submitted to Feminist Economics through the submissions website (http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/rfec). Questions about these procedures may be sent to feministeconomics@rice.edu, +1.713.348.4083 (phone) or +1.713.348.5495 (fax).

International Conference on Economic Philosophy
21-22 June 2012 | Lille , France
Organizers: Sciences Po Lille and the journal Papers in Political Economy (Cahiers d??conomie Politique) | website
Supported by: CLERSE, University Lille 1 and Association Charles Gide for the History of Economic Thought
What is economic philosophy? The expression is well known. In France, in Europe and worldwide, reviews, research centers and academic programs refer to it. But what does it mean? Does she have an object, a method and references which would really distinguish her from economic theories? Is it just another name to indicate what we formerly called doctrine? Is it more or something different than what we today call economic epistemology? And what place does economic philosophy occupy next to other fields of philosophy? These questions and some other seem to have enough relevance for the Papers in Political Economy/ Cahiers d?Economie Politique (www.cahiersdecopo.fr) to organize a conference on these with the aim of a special issue.
In first estimate three possible meanings can be distinguished ? as so many orientations for proposals. At first, there would be an economic philosophy in the way where there is an underlying philosophy in any
positive science under the shape of an envelope which supports her or which hinders her. The study of this economic philosophy ? as philosophy of the economy ? would then consist in bringing to light the decisive notions from which the economic analysis draws its resources or on which on the contrary she has to operate an epistemological rupture.
There would then be an economic philosophy in the sense that the economic notions of optimum, collective well-being and social choice result in questions relative to the freedom of the agents and to the justice of their mutual relations. Economics would appear as a body in two complementary parts ? a positive side or examination of the empirical conditions assuring the maximum efficiency of the actions relative? to the production of wealth in a given society; a normative side or description of the ideal conditions under which these results assure the moral satisfaction of the members of this society. Economic philosophy would be this normative part. It would thus be another name for welfare? conomics, theory of social choice or economic theory of justice.
Finally, there would be an economic philosophy in the sense that the essential notions constitutive of the field of economy and economics are the objects of an analysis pushed until its term. Economists know this level of inquiry on fundamental concepts of their domain under the title of pure theory. Pure theory is not the positive knowledge about how an economic device compared to others works at best. Nor does she normatively question the ideal conditions under which the economy can be just. Pure theory rises
up to the upper floor of the so-called real or abstract definitions which command the deployment of economics in the coherence and relevance of its various parts.
But is it enough to say? Shouldn?t we go further than this orientation under the only review of the possible meanings of an expression? Shouldn?t we also understand an economic philosophy as the banner of a great philosophic tradition to unify economic theoretical propositions ? as it is to see with political or moral philosophies? It would then be necessary to speak about Aristotelian, Hegelian or Marxist economic philosophy, economic philosophy inspired by J.S.Mill, the Vienna Circle or Wittgenstein or influenced by Hayek or evolutionism ? all incentives for proposals.

On the Horizon: Beyond Market-Fundamentalist Economics
Subtitle: An Agenda for Heterodox Economics to Change the Dominant Narrative
June 2012 Special Issue of On the Horizon
Guest Editors: Tae-Hee Jo, Lynne Chester, and Mary C. King
Call for Papers
The financial crisis of 2008 threw in sharp relief the inadequacy of an increasingly market fundamentalist, mainstream neoclassical economics to accurately explain the economy or to provide guidance to policy makers that will lead to widely-shared prosperity and human wellbeing.
Critical understandings of market dynamics and alternative approaches are found in the spectrum of heterodox economics. In 2008, On the Horizon (OTH) published a special issue (Vol. 16, No. 4) on heterodox economics, ?Publishing, Refereeing, Rankings, and the Future of Heterodox Economics.?
In an upcoming special issue, OTH will go further, to highlight how practitioners of heterodox economics might differently advise policy makers around the globe to proceed, and how those policy programs might be supported by a re-formulated economic narrative which, in turn, would be shaped by re-designed economics curriculum, different approaches to pedagogy and funding for far wider research agendas, if heterodox economists were to receive the kind and level of support currently enjoyed solely by mainstream neoclassical economists.
For inclusion in this special issue, we are interested in a range of possible papers that conceptualize the policy, teaching, and research arenas to reshape the dominant economic narrative and break the hegemony of market-fundamentalism that would result from substantially strengthened support of all heterodox traditions.? Scholars may choose to focus on the contribution of a particular school of economic thought, or draw from a number of heterodox frameworks, and similarly may focus on one nation or many.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
1. The Policy Program
- What policies would heterodox economists?or practitioners of Institutionalist, Marxist, Feminist, Post Keynesian and other traditions?advise policy makers to support with respect to energy, the environment, trade, employment, family policy, finance, education, health care, military efforts and other pressing issues?
- How might recommended policies vary for more and less affluent nations?
- How would we suggest meeting the challenges of sustainability, raising world-wide living standards while reducing negative environmental and social impacts?
- Are policy ideas influential only if they come from elite academic institutions?? Are there other institutional interconnections that reinforce accepted policy ideas and how might heterodox economists seek to reframe these institutions and their relationships?
- How have overlooked insights gained currency in the past?? What role does the media play in the acceptance or dismissal of economic ideas?
- How can heterodox economists use cultural practices, organizational processes and technological parameters to change the standard dominant economic narrative?
2. Heterodox economics in universities and schools:? Curriculum and pedagogy
- What would a heterodox economics curriculum look like?? Are there examples of appropriate curriculum for elementary and secondary education, as well as universities?
- Does heterodox economics call for different pedagogical approaches than those? central to market-fundamentalist mainstream neoclassical economic teaching methods?
3. What would be the impact of significantly increased funding for research in heterodox economics?
- If heterodox economists had access to private sector/non-profit philanthropic funds of the order of magnitude of INET/Rockefeller Foundation and public funding of the order of the NSF/RAE, could? the profession be changed in terms of research, teaching, economics department composition, conferences, etc.?
- What would the research agendas comprise?? Would methodological changes occur?? What kinds of metrics might be used?
4. Is the division into heterodoxy and orthodoxy unique in the discipline of economics, perhaps because of its political centrality? Are there lessons from other disciplines in the social sciences?
- What are the consequences for the economics discipline of the dismissal of heterodox ideas by orthodox economists?
- What are the ways that heterodox economics can achieve more widespread acceptance of pluralism?
Papers
One-page proposals are to be submitted to the guest editors (oth.heterodox.econ@gmail.com) and papers should be submitted online at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/oth. Submitted papers undergo a peer-review process.

Workshop: Teaching Political Economy
September 16, 2011: 10:30am-6pm | University of Warwick
Political economy is a form of inquiry and a field of research that cross-cuts different social science disciplines and this workshop seeks to explore the many different ways in which political economy is taught, be it in: international relations, politics, geography, business studies, heterodox economics, social anthropology and sociology. Our aim is to exchange ideas and innovative practices through dialogue, not devise a definitive way of teaching political economy.
This one-day workshop will work through the following topics:
- Different methods of teaching political economy
- Teaching key topics: trade, finance, development and the environment
- Moving beyond the traditional essay question and innovations in teaching
Participants are NOT required to present a paper; instead they are encouraged to bring their course outlines, teaching resources (newspaper articles, films, blogs etc.), assignments, essay questions, seminar topics, simulations. Providing there is sufficient amounts The Political Economy Institute at the University of Manchester has offered to create an online repository of these resources.
Confirmed participants: Kees van der Pijl (Sussex), Richard Woodward (Hull), Earl Gammon (UAE), Matthew Watson (Warwick), Phoebe Moore (Salford)
As key players on the front-line of teaching, we encourage post-graduate student participation and are able to offer travel expenses (on a first come, first serve basis).
Spaces are limited, so please contact Johnna Montgomerie (j.montgomerie@manchester.ac.uk) or Ben Richardson (B.J.Richardson@warwick.ac.uk) to register.

Workshop on Wage-led Growth
?14 JUNE 2011 | Kingston University London
The Political Economy Research Group, School of Economics Kingston University is organizing a workshop Wage-led growth ? An alternative to finance-led capitalism?
Date: 14 June 2011 , 09:00 to 18:00
Location: JG0003 Penrhyn Road Campus Kingston KT1 2EE
Fee: Free, advance registration essential
Neoliberalism has led to a polarization in the distribution of income and given rise to a finance-led growth model that collapsed in the worst crisis since the 1930s. Wage-led growth has recently been proposed as an alternative policy strategy. It aims at linking wage growth to productivity growth and inflation. Growing wages could then generate high demand by fuelling consumption. But such a strategy could also ignite the growth of the capital stock if consumption demand has second round effects on investment, and if wage growth induces technological change and productivity growth. Thus, for a wage-growth policy to be successful, it needs be embedded in an economic policy regime that gives a greater role to labour unions and restrains the financial sector. The Workshop will introduce recent research on wage-led growth and provide a forum for critical discussion.
