UnB: um coloquio sobre cliches e lugares comuns: crise global e mudança de paradigmas


Não poderia haver maiores lugares comuns e clichês desgastados: sempre se vive em crise global, ao que parece, ou em transição para alguma coisa, e sempre se acha que estamos em busca de novos paradigmas.
Esses acadêmicos são incorrigíveis...

Presentation

It is with pleasure that we inform that the XI International Colloquium will take place in Brasília. This event is most welcome since it is a return to its original place after a long period abroad. The select theme is “Global Crisis and Changes of Paradigms: Current Issues” and the event will be in May 6-7, 2014. As is well known economics has been concerned with understanding how economies work in order to discover which policies could make them work better. Growth, distribution, inflation, trade and employment, have been some of the main concerns of macroeconomic theories. Yet few economists foresaw the scale of the financial and economic crisis from 2008, and few have been able to propose alternative economic paradigms to respond to it. The main objective of the Colloquium is to provide a platform for a productive exchange of ideas, theories and policies that might identify such paradigm shifts and better inform policies for both national and global governance. The Review of Keynesian Economics will publish up to 5 selected papers presented at the conference.
We also would like to inform that an additional meeting, associated to the Colloquium, will take place at the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) on May 8, Thursday morning, from 09:00 to 12:00, room Almirante Álvaro Alberto. The World Academy of Art and Science (WAAS) will present its history and aims. The address of the CNPq is SHIS, QI 1, Conjunto B - Blocos A, B, C e D, Edifício Santos Dumont, Lago Sul, near to airport. 
The successful experience of the first, the1997 International Colloquium on “Money, Growth, Distribution and Structural Change: Contemporaneous Analysis”, coincided with the foundation of PhD Programme in Economics at the University of Brasilia (UnB). It was an outstanding meeting with the presence of several fine scholars from Brazil and abroad.    It was followed by the 1999 International Colloquium on “Economic Dynamics and Economic Policy” which was the result of the consolidation of our efforts to stimulate and sustain a critical dialogue. The 2001 International Colloquium on “Structural Change, Growth and Redistribution” was launched also in Brasília. The 2003 International Colloquium tackled the theme “Globalization, New Technologies and Economic Relations” and counted with the support of other institutions than UnB as well as the collaboration of scholars worldwide. The results in terms of research networks were stimulating and productive. All of these meetings had their respective proceedings edited in book format and published in Brazil.
Subsequent to this initial effort at UnB, the event took on its intercontinental projection with the organization of the 2005 Colloquium, which took place in Treviso, Italy, in a joint effort by the University of Brasilia and the PRINT-PROJECT which included several Italian universities, on the theme “Dynamic Capabilities between Firm Organization and Systems of Production”. The Routledge International Publishers published a selection of its papers in January 2008. In 2007 the VI International Colloquium was organized once again by the University of Brasilia in Brasília. The theme was “Macrodynamic Capability and Economic Development”. The emphasis of the proceedings was on socioeconomic policies towards growth and distribution, dubbed in the literature as Development with a Human Face. The 2010 International Colloquium was successfully organized under the theme of “Getting out of the Current Economic Crisis: In the Light of Alternative Development Paradigms” by CEPN of the University of Paris 13 and Department of Economics of the University of Brasilia at the Maison des Sciences de l’Homme de Paris Nord. The event attracted attention worldwide.
The VIII International Colloquium entitled “Economic Growth, Structural Change and Institutions” was organized jointly by the Department of Economics of the University of Brasilia and J. E. Cairnes School of Business and Economics of National University of Ireland in Galway in May 2011. It was a meeting which attracted an excellent group of scholars and dealt with important contemporary issues. 
In 2012 colleagues from the University of Graz, Austria accepted the invitation to organize the IX International Colloquium at the Schumpeter Centre in collaboration with University of Brasilia. The event produced contributions towards better understanding of “Inequality and its Persistence”. The main objective of the meeting was to provide a platform for productive exchanges of analysis and research results which focus on the theoretical and policy aspects of the inequality theme. The colloquium also aimed to stimulate an exchange of ideas across fields of inquiry from within the discipline of economic science, as well as between and across other related disciplines. It reinforced a multi-disciplinary approach to the study of political economy.
In Graz it was the decided that the X International Colloquium would take place in the Instituto Superior de Economia e Gestão (ISEG) in Lisbon, Portugal, in collaboration with the University of Brasilia, in May 28-29, 2013. The theme was “Power Distribution in The World Economy: New Challenges”. We were concerned with new challenges of the world economy, the distribution of power between different groups in the national and global economies and the countries of the world. Changes in the distribution of power have arguably had a major impact on the economic performance worldwide in recent years. The event was very successful with presence of several fine scholars and both academic and public sector administrators. The Colloquium was the only scientific event supported by the programme Brazil-Portugal and a selection of papers with will be published in a especial volume(proceedings) by the journal Panaeconomics till the end of 2013.
