Global Political Economy Project
The Global Political Economy Project (GPEP) is engaged in a multi-year effort to reimagine how we study and interact with global markets in a post-neoliberal era. Led by Professors Kathleen McNamara and Abraham Newman at Georgetown University’s Mortara Center for International Studies, it is catalyzing innovative, policy-relevant scholarship that explores the politics of global markets and inequality, race and social identities, sustainability, digital technologies, and geopolitical power dynamics. The project’s activities are based around three pillars — generating new ideas, building a new scholarly infrastructure, and engaging with policy practitioners and the public — to build a more inclusive and sustainable version of globalization. GPEP has received support from the Open Society Foundation’s Economic Justice Program, the Board of Regents of Georgetown University, the Initiative for U.S.-China Dialogue on Global Issues, and the Hewlett Foundation’s Economy and Society Initiative.
