Conference Heterodox and Contextual Thinking in Economics

zurück zur Veranstaltungsübersicht

February 8th and 9th, 2018, Frankfurt University

The main aim of the conference is to promote fruitful exchange between academics working on heterodox
approaches to economics. We would like to facilitate serious intellectual exchange about the viability of contextual approaches to the topics usually covered by mainstream economics. The goal is to create a permanent network of intellectuals interested in contextual approaches to social science and to strengthen cooperation between diverse ways of doing economics. You are not only encouraged to debate about heterodoxy in the practice of economics, but also about „best practices“ for implementing it in one‘s research agenda and one‘s teaching, as well as about the relation between the way in which economics is practiced and the prospects for a free and humane social and economic order. Optimally, the conference will turn into a permanent, institutionalized event that serves as a meeting- and socializing-point for a select group of scholars interested in these questions.
