* **The CES Critical Economics Summer School*
The Centre for Social Studies, Associate Laboratory of the University of
Coimbra, is launching The CES Critical Economics Summer School to bring
together in annual meetings economists and other students of social sciences
to discuss topics of common interest.
This series of summer schools aims at promoting a venue for critical
research on the economy and in economics. The school is primarily intended
for advanced graduate and post-doctoral researchers as well as young
scholars. Young researchers will then have the opportunity to attend
lectures and discuss their work with distinguished scholars in the selected
fields of research.
The course will take the form of morning lectures where the guest speakers
are invited to give two lectures. In the afternoons young researchers
present their work to be discussed by all participants.

**2009 CES Critical Economics Summer School**
The institutional foundations of the economy: property, markets and public
policy
*Coimbra, July 6-9
The first edition is devoted to the institutional foundations of the
economy. It will bring on board the institutionalist and the feminist
perspective on two basic economic institutions – property and markets.
Particular attention will be given to the relation between these
institutions and public policy, specifically, to how those institutions are
shaped, and permanently reshaped, by public policies. The speakers are
invited to discuss four main topics:**
1) The foundations of the economy: the institutionalist and the feminist
perspective.**
2) Rights, property and property rights. *
*3) The limits of the market and institutional impurity.*
*4) Public policy and institutional change.**
Guest lecturers include Daniel W. Bromley from the University of
Wisconsin-Madison, John O'Neill from the University of Manchester, and Julie
A. Nelson from the Global Development and Environment Institute, Tufts
University.*
*CES Lecturers include José Castro
