Economics from the Perspective of the Global South

Dr. Surbhi Kesar (SOAS University of London)
In this evening lecture Dr Surbhi Kesar will critically engage with eurocentric conceptualisations of informality and lay out potential elements of a South-centric framework to understand economic issues around informality. We will focus on the following questions: What is euro-centrism in economics and how can we identify the embedded euro-centrism in dominant economic theories? What could be some elements to develop a South-centric framework? Is the issue of labor and informality in economics studied from a global North-centric perspective? What can be a South-centric perspective to the issue of labor and informality?
