The York Political Economy (YPE) Student Conference is an interdisciplinary endeavour of the historical
and the contemporary. Analysis and critique will shift between the politics of everyday life and those of the
global economy. Topics will include, but will not be limited to, the political economy of state restructuring,
crisis, counter-movements, international migration, militarism and violence, culture and media, development, and salient theoretical issues (such as value theory). This project follow in the tradition of
York’s Politics Department by tracing out a contested, globalizing process of the material and the ideological, traversing class, gender, ethnicity and other terrains of the socio-political world.
