Those are systems of organised complexity. High importance is given to the analysis of networks. Complexity Economics     The concept of financialisation has undergone a similar career as ‘globalisation’, ‘neoliberalism’ or even ‘capitalism’, in the course of which it changed from the explanandum to the explanans; the process of financialisation is taken for granted, while the concrete historical and empirical causal conditions of its realisation and perpetuation are being moved into the background. 2023 Level: expert A holistic theory of financialisation Samuel Decker Exploring Economics Caring activities are one central element of feminist economists' analysis – also since in particular unremunerated work is a blind spot in mainstream economics and most other economic paradigms. Those focus on the market sphere: activities are considered as productive and as real labour if they are remunerated and market-intermediated. Goods and services are considered as labour if they create a value which can be traded on the market. Feminist Economics remarks that this perspective creates certain dichotomies and consequent devaluations: unproductive – productive; private – public; unpaid – remunerated OR paid less – well paid; female – male; soft work – hard work; caring – rationality. 2016 Level: débutant Reproductive Labour and Care Exploring Economics Exploring Economics Completing the Economics of Discrimination module, the students should have acquired knowledge and understanding of the existing similarities and differences of the definition and analysis of discrimination across economic theory and cultural theory. 2021 Level: débutant Economics of discrimination Dr. Mary Wrenn und Dr. Hans Dietrich Summer Academy for Pluralist Economics This chapter by the Centre of Economy Studies provides a map through the complex jungle of economic theories.
