For those of you who missed it, many of the videos from #AHE2020 are now up on @hetecon's YouTube channel.

Hope it will inspire many of you to join the heterodox economics movement (and maybe even AHE??) 😊

Opening plenary on #COVID19, Capitalism and the Environment, featuring the brilliant @JKSteinberger @jasonhickel and Chantal Naidoo, chaired by @danielle_guizzo.

I had the pleasure of chairing the panel on Heterodox Economics Globally with inspiring talks captured here by @nssylla and @Drsaalajeng (but unfortunately the beginning of Rama's got lost!).

@SMouatt chaired the timely session on Heterodox Perspectives on COVID-19, with @medha_as @RVijayamba @Patrick_M_Econ & Alicia Girón. Topics ranged from local COVID19 responses, to financial governance, to agent-based models of inequalities after covid19.

How do we teach heterodox economics? This was a very lively discussion chaired by @andmearman, featuring insights from @mmmgroenewald, Ioana Negru, Juan David Parra, @JohnKomlos, and @danielle_guizzo.

What are challenges associated with funding health and social policies? In this interesting session, @apguidolin presented on healthcare in Brazil and @Geoff_Crocker on Basic Income and Sovereign Money. I had the pleasure of chairing it.

The session on Racism, Sexism and Development was incredibly rich, with presentations by Cristina Fróes de Borja Reis, @SurbhiKesar and @retepelyod. Chaired by @alexarntsen.

The YSI (@ysi_commons) session on Pluralism and Global South Perspectives in Economics was also a great contribution to the conference. Chaired by @ndvoskin, with presentations by @BarkinCihanli and Leandro Bona.

The History of Econ session was mostly a Marxist session, with @nicolasaaguila & Karen Petersen presenting on Marx’s theory of money, but from different angles, and Juan Santarcángelo presenting on Marxian development theory. Chaired by @danielle_guizzo.

The session on COVID-19 and the Global South was also incredibly rich, with presentations by Salimah Valiani, @nith1989, Nithya Joseph, and Sonia C. López Cerón, providing perspectives from India, South Africa and Colombia. Chaired by @alexarntsen.

The session on Macro & Finance chaired by @andmearman featured interesting analyses by @devikadutt on the International Lender of Last Resort, Davide Villani on the External Financial Dependence index & Monika Meireles on financial regionalization.

I particularly had an awesome time chairing this panel organized by @maxajl on how (post)colonial theory is needed to make sense of & to offer alternatives to regnant patterns of accumulation & dispossession Ft. Ibrahim Shikaki, Divya Sharma, & Max himself.

Finally, the closing plenary co-organized by @ysi_commons and chaired by @SurbhiKesar was brilliant and inspiring, featuring excellent presentations by Prabhat Patnaik, @LuGuangMing and @ymadra.
