Macroeconomics 101 by the Pan African Feminist Political Economy Collective NAWI explains in a simple and accessible way, why macroeconomics matters. The booklet starts from the perspective of an African woman buying garlic on the market and explains from this perspective, how macroeconomics affects daily life. In doing so, the booklet looks at the impact of structural adjustment programmes and neo-liberalism.

Comment from our editors:

Macroeconomics 101 explains in accessible language why macroeconomics matters in everyday life, how it relates to women's rights issues and adresses the impact of structural adjustment programmes. Using everyday examples such as the price of garlic or the cost of basic health care, the booklet connects abstract concepts to everyday experiences.

Trickle Down Economics - an old topic, but still present in our lives. The idea consists of deregulation of the economy and of lower tax for the top in order to increase the "size of the pie" so everybody would have a bigger piece, even with a smaller share. 2015 Level: debutante A critique to Trickle-down economics Joseph Stiglitz Intelligence Squared An essay of the writing workshop on Nigeria’s Readiness for and the Effect of the Fourth Industrial Revolution 2020 Level: adelantado The Role of Women in the Fourth Industrial Revolution Damilola Phebean Owasanoye Exploring Economics In this short podcast, Naomi Fowler, the Tax Justice Network's creative strategist, discusses how the laws made by those who profited from slavery and the empire and, the extractive business models of the major financial sector continue to impoverish some of the poorest nations. 2020 Level: debutante Systemic racism, reparations and tax justice Naomi Fowler, John Christensen, David Sorenson, Cortney Sanders, Michael Leachman Tax Justice Network In order to address discrimination, we must understand and address its fundamental basis of systemic oppression. Stratification economics goes beyond myopic mainstream conceptualisations of discrimination and recognises the historical, institutional, and structural factors that create and maintain socioeconomic disparities and hierarchies. To critically approach the economics of discrimination, this workshop will focus on stratification economics, a systematic and empirically grounded approach to addressing intergroup inequality (Darity, 2005). Focusing on racial discrimination, we will discuss the core elements of stratification economics, critically evaluate its relevance, and apply these understandings to construct case studies and solutions for change. In our discussions, we will consider an array of topics, including intersecting oppressions, reparative justice, and the role of knowledge production in overcoming injustice and creating a better world. 2022 Level: debutante Economics of Discrimination Tanita Lewis Summer Academy 2022 for Pluralist Economics Silvia Federici outlines the content of her book „Caliban and the Witch - Women, the Body and Primitive Accumulation“. Departing from a critique of the Marxist blindspot on reproductive labour, Federici aims at researching the historical process by which the exploitation of women and the construction of the unproductive housewife has been established. Federici points to the transition from the feudal to the capitalist mode of production and explains how the gender specific prosecution (witch hunt) was linked to necessity of control over bodies and the sexuality in the great transformation. Federici also presents arguments why this research is highly relevant for the analysis of women's situation in current capitalism. 2013 Level: debutante Caliban and the Witch Silvia Federici Sound of movement Wirtschaftspolitik.cc ist ein interaktives Online Lehrbuch zur Einführung in die Perspektiven der Wirtschaftspolitik.
