  • The transform! Economists Working Group at the 25th Annual EAEPE Conference

  • From 7 to 9 November 2013, the European Association for Evolutionary Political Economy will hold its annual conference in Paris. The conference theme will focus on the state and future of industries in Europe, with a special emphasis on policy.

    The transform! Economists Working Group (TEWG) will be actively present and take the opportunity to share its views on productive reconstruction – this issue being at the core of transform! europe’s crisis programme.

    Members of the TEWG and unionists from Greece, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Austria, France and Germany will lead two panel discussions on the following topics: “Which policies for productive reconstruction in Southern Europe?” and “Which EU industrial policies in time of crisis and ecological transition?”. The discussions outcomes will be the subject of a publication, contributing therefore to the debate on a positive way out of the European crisis.

    Please find the programme of the transform! panels below.
