The global capitalist system thrives on the movement of capital, labor, and goods across borders. Daily conflicts surrounding international trade deals, workplace regulations, public space occupations, and domestic unpaid labor continually reshape our living and working environments.
Our political economy focus employs Marxist, post-structuralist, feminist, and institutional frameworks to analyze capitalism's transformation across various levels. We investigate evolving trends in manufacturing, jobs, and wealth generation within diverse sectors like automotive, energy, and agricultural chemicals, alongside global commerce and economic progress.
