Interrogating Political Economy seminar on Jim Ferguson's Give a Man a Fish: Reflections on the New Politics of Distribution

Friday, 18 September 2015 - 1:30pm

As the third in our series on interrogating new forms of political economy, WISER invites researchers to a seminar on James Ferguson's  Give a Man a Fish :  Reflections on the New Politics of Distribution. Durham NC: Duke University Press, 2015.

As part of WISER's African Futures theme, Interrogating Political Economy is an informal reading group that meets once a month to read and critically engage with well-established and new arguments in comparative political economy.  The goals of the seminar are to enrich the scholarly project of comparative political economy in South Africa, to open up the key problems of accumulation and inequality on this continent to more intensive inter-disciplinary enquiry, and to support more sophisticated understandings for the development of policy debates. 

Please RSVP to Faeeza Ballim (Faeeza.Ballim@gmail.com) and she will assist with the required reading.
