Market Politics

Market Politics
24th-25th May, 2018
Goldsmiths, London
Organisers: Daniel Neyland, Vera Ehrenstein and Sveta Milyaeva,
Funded by: ERC project MISTS

The Market Politics event at Goldsmiths in 2018 will explore how research on
markets from across the social sciences can help shed light on some of the
major political concerns of our time.

It seems that in fields as diverse as energy, climate change, healthcare,
higher education, pensions, housing, transportation, borders, culture and
food, market relations are proposed, completed, disputed, adjusted and
disrupted. In order to engage with these complex relations, in this event we
will draw together social scientists interested in engaging with the
composition, transformation, and consequences of market politics. The event
will include five keynote presentations:

Andrew Barry (Department of Geography, UCL) Infrastructure and the Markets'
Politics

Koray alkan (Department of Political Science & IR, Bogazici University)
The Future of Markets and Politics: Mapping an Emergent Geography of
Economization

Cline Cholez and Pascale Trompette (Laboratoire Pacte, University of
Grenoble) Of borders and margins: African markets and the politics of supply
chains in a global world'

Tom Osborne (School of Sociology, Politics & IR, Bristol University) On
Montesquieu, markets and the liberalism of fear

Laura Bear (Department of Anthropology, LSE) (title TBC)

We will also end the first day with a panel discussion on market politics in
higher education. Further information on the event including a programme and
abstracts can be found here:

The event is free to attend and we have a limited number of places remaining,
but we do require registration for catering. To register please send an e-mail
