Heterodox Economics Newsletter, Issue 117 | July 11, 2011 | 1 Issue 117 | July 11, 2011 [Read HTML] [Download PDF] Editors' Note Congratulations to the World Economics Association (WEA) as they had over 3,500 people register for membership in the first week alone! To date, there are close to 5,000 members from 120 countries. This speaks to both the need for pluralism in economics and the failings of the dominant paradigm. If you have not yet become a member and are interested, you can find that information in the For Your Information section. A query for our readers. We are beginning to receive requests to market online courses. While we believe it is a worthwhile endeavor, given the trend and workload, we are hesitant to create another section for these activities. However, we think it would be a valuable service if there was a promotional site for heterodox online economics courses. We would appreciate your ideas on this, so please email us your thoughts. Wouldn't it be great to promote heterodox online courses to students at places like the University of Chicago!? Lastly, at the risk of self-promotion, we'd like to again draw your attention to the special issue call for papers from On the Horizon. This is an excellent occasion for heterodox economists to speak directly to, in particular, educational administrators and policy makers. You can address, for example, educational, social, political, cultural, and environmental issues alternative to market-oriented policies. Or you can explore pedagogical approaches beyond market-fundamentalist mainstream teaching methods. We look forward to receiving many visionary paper proposals. In solidarity, Tae-Hee Jo and Ted Schmidt, Editors Email: [email protected] Website: http://heterodoxnews.com Heterodox Economics Newsletter, Issue 117 | July 11, 2011 | 2 Table of Contents Call for Papers ............................................................................... 5 AFIT 2012 Conference: Institutionalism and Building a Better Future .....5 AFIT 7th Annual Student Scholars Award Competition ......................... 6 Anarcho-Syndicalist Review: On Participatory Economics .....................7 Annual New School – UMass Graduate Workshop in Economics .............7 The Capitalist Mode of Power: Past, Present, Future ............................ 8 Environment and Society: Capitalism and the Environment ..................9 Feminist Economics: Engendering Economic Policy in Africa..................9 International Conference on Degrowth in the Americas ...................... 10 International Conference on Post Keynesian Economics, Japan ........... 13 Critique: Journal of Socialist Theory: Legacy of Rosa Luxemburg......... 13 International Critical Thought ......................................................... 14 New Zealand Economics Papers: on Quality of Life ............................ 14 Oeconomicus ............................................................................... 15 On the Horizon: Beyond Market-Fundamentalist Economics ................ 15 URPE Conference: The War on the Working Class.............................. 17 Working Lives: Special Issue on Oral History and Working-Class History........................................................................................ 17 Call for Participants ..................................................................... 18 43rd UK History of Economic Thought Conference ............................. 18 Global Capitalism and Transnational Class Formation......................... 19 ICAPE Conference 2011................................................................. 20 International Forum on the Social and Solidarity Economy (FIESS)...... 20 International Greening Education Event 2011 ................................... 20 Summer Institute: Media, Democracy and the Economy .................... 21 Summer School: Labour Studies in Global Perspective ....................... 22 Workshop: State, Crisis and the Refusal of Recovery ......................... 23 Job Postings for Heterodox Economists ....................................... 23 Connecticut College, USA .............................................................. 23 Franklin and Marshall College, USA ................................................. 24 Richard Stockton College of New Jersey, USA ................................... 24 Sarah Lawrence College, USA......................................................... 25 University of Bath, UK ................................................................... 25 University of Greenwich, UK........................................................... 26 University of Leon, Spain ............................................................... 26 University of Newcastle, Australia ................................................... 27 University of Minnesota-Morris, USA................................................ 27 Conference Papers, Reports, and Articles .................................... 28 Post Keynesian Economics Study Group........................................... 28 UMASS Working Paper Series ......................................................... 28 There are Progressive Economists: Reflections after a Post-Keynesian Conference, Roskilde, Denmark ...................................................... 28 Heterodox Journals...................................................................... 28 Business History Review ................................................................ 28 Cambridge Journal of Economics, 35(4): July 2011 ........................... 28 Capital & Class, 35(2): June 2011................................................... 29 Challenge, 54(4): July-August 2011 ................................................ 30 Contributions to Political Economy, 30(1): June 2011 ........................ 30 The Economic and Labour Relations Review ..................................... 31 Economics and Philosophy, 27(2): July 2011 .................................... 31 Economy and Society, 40(2): 2011 ................................................. 31 Ensayos Revista de Economía, 30(1): Mayo 2011 ............................. 32 European Journal of the History of Economic Thought, 18(2): 2011 ..... 32 Forum for Social Economics, 40(2): July 2011 .................................. 33 Industrial and Corporate Change, 20(3): July 2011 ........................... 33 International Journal of Political Economy, 40(1): Spring 2011 ........... 33 Heterodox Economics Newsletter, Issue 117 | July 11, 2011 | 3 International Socialism Journal, 131: June 2011 ............................... 34 Intervention.
