Özet:
Report back on the 2025 IIPPE Annual Conference, September 17 – 20, Ankara, followed by the Call for the 2025 Conference
This year’s Annual Conference in Ankara was Crisis of the World Capitalist System, Crisis for the World Capitalist System. As IIPPE began to do last year, what had previously been a pre-conference day of a single workshop on political economy theory has become the first day of the conference, a day of multiple workshops on whatever topics IIPPE Working Groups and members decide to use the flexible workshop format to present and develop work on. A morning workshop Crisis of Neoliberalism in the Balkans was a roundtable involving local presenters and presenters by video from the Balkans. Two workshops ran right after lunch, Why China is Not Imperialist and the annual Topics in Political Economy (TIPE) theory workshop, this year on Basics and Foundations of Marx’s Value Theory. In the midafternoon there was a roundtable on Palestine, and this year we introduced an IIPPE invited-speaker plenary session on the Workshop Day which was organized by the Activism, Film, and Media Working Group, Internal Borders: The Asylum Industrial Complex and the Politics of Precarity by Helen Brewer. The first day ended with a Meet and Greet Reception for those who participated in the opening day of workshops, with a second Meet and Greet Reception later in the conference at the end of the third day.
