Exploring the interactions between social security and popular acceptance of globalisation, this projects aims to shed light on the relationship between a sense of belonging and economic development. Traditionally, social justice has not been a primary concern of economics, but the close relationship between political institutions, citizen needs and perceptions, and successful economic transformation in the 21st century has laid down new parameters and created new forms of uncertainty and volatility.
This research project sets out a find potential pathway towards new questions and new ideas to explore how macroeconomics can take account of these new uncertainties, develop new macroeconomic thinking based on new models, and rework the relationship between macroeconomics and policy development.
