We invite submissions for the 26th Conference of the Association for Heterodox Economics, taking place on July 10-12, 2024 at the University of the West of England (Frenchay Campus), in Bristol (UK) and online. This is an event organised in collaboration with Bristol Research in Economics at UWE College of Business and Law.  

This year’s theme, “Heterodox Alternatives for a World of Multiple Crises”, seeks to explore innovative and diverse perspectives to address the complex challenges facing our global economy. In the midst of unprecedented crises, including environmental degradation, economic inequality, and political instability, we believe that heterodox approaches hold the key to unlocking new solutions. We welcome submissions that challenge conventional economic paradigms, offer alternative frameworks for understanding and navigating our multifaceted crises and actively work towards social change.

Submissions may cover a wide range of approaches and sub-topics, including but not limited to:

• Ecological Economics
• Post-Keynesian Economics
• Feminist Economics
• Institutional Economics
• Marxist Economics
• Political Economy
• Economic Development 
• Postcolonial perspectives on economics
• Imperialism
• Economic History and History of Economic Thought
• Race and Economics
• Economics Pedagogy

Join us in fostering a vibrant intellectual exchange that transcends traditional boundaries. Let’s collectively explore heterodox alternatives and contribute to building a more resilient, sustainable, and equitable world.
