CPERN, in collaboration with EAEPE, SASE, ESA CPERN, BISA IPEG, and IIPPE hosted a discussion on 8 July 2021, with Henry Giroux, Laura Horn and Sam Dallyn. Our aim was to raise awareness and solidarity for colleagues under pressure from university managers who are using COVID to mainstream their economics and management programmes and to worsen their employment relations.

EAEPE fully supports The National Economic Association in its statement to Stand in Solidarity with Those Who Are Protesting Anti-Black Racism and its Manifest Violence Against the Black Community. You can also endorse their statement here. EAEPE is a powerful proponent of pluralism that embraces diverse perspectives to interrogate the real world political economy of our times. Yet the representation of people of colour in our communities is very limited and many core assumptions in economics remain unchallenged. The “Black lives matter” movement should be the driver for change both in our academic societies and in economics more broadly. We commit ourselves to actions that will contribute to addressing racism and discrimination in higher education, increase the representation of people of colour in EAEPE’s communities, challenge white supremacy in its various forms in economics and contribute to the transformation of the curricula such that they incorporate issues of race and injustice in a systematic way. As a Council we welcome proposals in this direction and we look forward to working with communities of black economists.
