The Rules of Peace and Prosperity: History, Economics and Politics (RPP)
A joint webinar between the Geneva Graduate Institute Hoffmann Centre for Global Sustainability and the CEPR Economic History Programme Area and the Preventing Conflict: Policies for Peace RPN.
The aim of this webinar is to bring together top-level expertise from economics, history and political science to debate the importance, evolution and stability of a rule-based order—domestically and internationally. Possible topics include: the origins of the domestic rule of law and of international rules- based multilateralism; the relation between rules-based orders, economic prosperity and peace; the use of economic power for political aims and the stability of economic and political orders. We seek to bring an interdisciplinary approach to these topics by combining deep historical knowledge with frontier theory and empirical methodology from economics and political science.
