Cambridge Realist Workshop

Another term, another programme for the Cambridge Realist Workshop.
See:


http://www.econ.cam.ac.uk/seminars/realist/workshop_programme.htm

First up, on M
onday January 22 is Christian Arnsperger

from the (mainstream) University of Louvain, giving a talk entitled:

“Tales of an Unconscious Critical Realist:

From Homo Economicus to Complexity and Dialectics”

As you might guess from the title, Christian has been moving away from, and
challenging the mainstream, and developing an alternative approach which
he now finds is similar to CR.

As usual, the talk starts at 8pm, but drinks are available from 7:30 pm


Best regards
