Public lectures on some Traditional Economic Solutions to poverty in Nigeria, specifically the Igbo Apprentice System, Yoruba Ajo Thrift Savings, and Hausa Integral Communalism. Rethinking Economics The Uploaders (RETU) invites you to a webinar with influential academics from Nigeria to lecture on three traditional economic solutions to poverty: the Igbo Apprenticeship System, the Yoruba Ajo Thrift Savings, and the Hausa Communalism. The event aims to educate on how these Nigerian traditional economic systems work, propose that they be included in the college Economics curriculum, and advise on how their principles can be applied at both micro and macro levels to lift many people out of poverty.

Peut-on analyser l'émergence des institutions du marché au cours de l'histoire à l'aide de la théorie des jeux ? Dans cet article, Robert Boyer, en dressant une lecture critique de l'ouvrage de Avner Greif, tente de répondre à cette question en revenant sur la méthodologie de l'auteur. 2009 Level: avancé Historiens et économistes face à l'émergence des institutions du marché Robert Boyer Annales. Histoire, Sciences Sociales Alle Macht den Plattformen? Immer mehr Marktmacht konzentriert sich in den Händen einiger Internet-Giganten. Was bedeutet das für ökonomischen Strukturen der digitalen Welt, und ist somit auch das Potenzial von Plattformen, die Wirtschaft nachhaltiger und partizipativer zu gestalten, an seine Grenzen gekommen? 2020 Level: débutant Digitale Plattformen - Keine Alternative zu Amazon, Google und Co? Tom Göhring, Jondis Schwartzkopf, Charlotte Griestop, Gülsüm Cengiz Exploring Economics How do we get our dinner? And who cooked Adam Smith's dinner? Starting with Smith's answer on the origin of a dinner, Katrine Marçal problematizes and illustrates how unpaid labour was and is still being ignored by economic theory and how the homo economics represents characteristics perceived as male. 2015 Level: débutant How Economics Forgot about Women Katrine Marçal TEDx Talks Professor Jennifer Clapp explains the dynamics of financialization of land and agricultural commodities in Subsaharan Africa. She points to the historical roots of accelerated land speculation and their connection to financial institutions, both generating and reinforcing the process of financialization of African land. Besides talking about roots and dynamics of speculation with land on financial markets, she puts the perspective of scholarly investigation onto the investor's side in discussing guidelines of responsible investment and regulation in the front instead of focussing on the receiving countries. 2013 Level: débutant Land and Financialization: Role of International Financial Actors in Land Deals in Africa Jennifer Clapp The North-South Institute In this teaching pack, we look at the acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk.
