Cédric Durand locates the Russian War on Ukraine in relation to Russian Economic Development and Political Economy after the collapse of the soviet union. For this purpose he distinguishes between three different phases of economic development (1.: 1991 to 1998, 2.: 1999 to 2008 and 3.: 2009 to 2022) each of which is associated with a specific form of politics, whereby the latest phase of economic development is highlighted as a critical background for a transformation in Putin's regime.

Comment from our editors:

Durand's essay helps to understand the Russian Invasion of Ukraine and more generally Putin's rule over Russia within a polit-economic framework, thus counter-acting and complementing analysis that focus on psychological and ideological explanations.

Zentralbankkooperation funktioniert – für manche
Die internationale makrofinanzielle Architektur erlitt im März 2020 einen Schock: Nachdem globale Lieferketten geschlossen wurden, froren Offshore Geldmärkte ein. Die wichtigen Zentralbanken reagierten schnell und beliehen sich gegenseitig mit Währung.

Why Nations Fail
James Robinson gives in this talk a short introduction into the theory and ideas of his popular book "Why Nations Fail" which was published together with D. Acemoglu in 2012. With many real-life examples he gives a lively description on the fundamentals for economic success from an institutionalist view. According to Robinson, the nature of institutions is a crucial factor for economic success. Whether institutions are inclusive (such as in prosperous economies) or extractive (poor economies) stems from the nation's political process and the distribution of political power.

Decolonizing Economics
The premise of this workshop is that we, as knowledge producers - especially within westernized universities (Grosfoguel, 2013), are significantly implicated in neoliberal imaginaries that are often in service of hierarchical, binary, competitive and linear narratives of growth as civilizational progress.
