Local organisers: Pasquale Tridico and Sebastiano Fadda

The EAEPE Summer School is open to PhD students and early-career researchers working in particular in the field of institutional and evolutionary analysis, with a special focus this year on inequality. Participants will address this important topic from different perspectives, including: gender inequalities, income inequalities, regional inequalities, power inequalities, technological inequalities, racial inequalities, and so on.

In the spirit of pluralism characteristic of the EAEPE, many Research Areas are relevant: human development, environmental economics, methodology of economics, institutional history, comparative economics, transition economics, institutional change, innovation and technology, and labour economics. More generally, contributions from all fields using institutional, multidisciplinary approaches are welcome.

Lectures by internationally-renowned scholars will be given in the morning, while afternoons will be devoted to presentations by advanced PhD students and early-career researchers, who will thus benefit from comments and suggestions from experts in the field.
