Critical Perspectives on Economics PhD Club

Target group: doctoral researchers in social sciences interested in critical perspectives on Economics

Contact: Valentina Ausserladscheider, Beata Boór, Dominik von Gehlen


This PhD Club aims at bringing together doctoral researchers across different disciplines who have an economic element in their PhD thesis or want to explore critical perspectives on economics and socio-economic inequality. The research interests of the group enclose a broad range on economic topics, including changing capitalism and world economy, criticism on dominant economic thought, and impact of the economy on state and society. Planned activities include a reading group on selected blogs, journals or book chapters; provision of peer feedback on presentations or written texts; feedback on preparation of fieldwork and data collection; common writing sessions; and (in perspective) organising guest lectures. The members meet monthly and welcome doctoral researchers in social sciences across all disciplines.
