SUMMARY:Symposium: The Politics of Civilizationalisms
DESCRIPTION:Symposium: The Politics of Civilizationalisms\n \nJune 29\, 2026\n \nConvenors: Dominic Sachsenmaier and Srirupa Roy\n \nHistorische Sternwarte\, Geismar Landstrasse 11\, 37083 Göttingen\n \n\nAbstract:\n \nOver the past two decades\, there has been a worldwide resurgence of discourses that  define peoples in terms of their unique civilizational identity and call for states to refurbish their timeless civilizational glory. Despite these clear patterns\, we lack a systematic\, empirically grounded interdisciplinary  understanding of new civilizationisms. What are the historical genealogies\, intellectual trajectories and academic matrices underlying the forms of new civilizational  thought across these regions and the globe at large? How do recent forms of civilizationism (both globally and in single societies) resemble earlier articulations of civilizational identities\, and in what regard do they differ from such antecedents? To what extent\, and how\, do they travel across languages\, political systems\, religious traditions and other contexts? What explains their rise and influence in the contemporary historical  conjuncture and as globally simultaneous phenomena that animate political landscapes in China and the United States\, Russia\, India and many other places?\n\n\nRoundtable:\n \nMonday June 29\n10:00 – 12:00               Introductory Remarks: Srirupa Roy & Dominic Sachsenmaier\nRoundtable 1: Russia\, China\, Japan\nSören Urbansky (Bochum)\, Immo Rebitschek (Göttingen)\, Rebecca Karl (NYU)\, Rolf Elberfeld (Hildesheim)\n                                   Chair: Eva Orthmann (Göttingen)\n \n12:00 – 13:00               Break\n \n13:00 – 15:00               Roundtable 2: MENA\, Africa\nMohammad Alsudairi (Canberra)\, Ulrike Freitag (ZMO Berlin)\, Anke Graness (Hildesheim)\, Kai Kresse (ZMO Berlin)\n                                   Chair: Dominic Sachsenmaier (Göttingen)\n \n15:00-15:15                  Break\n \n15:15- 16:45                 Roundtable 3: Europe\, India\nHans Kundnani (London)\, Julian Strube (Göttingen)\, Thomas Hansen (Stanford)\n                                   Chair: Srirupa Roy (Göttingen)

SUMMARY:3rd Kiel-Göttingen-CEPR Conference China in the Global Economy
DESCRIPTION:3rd Kiel-Göttingen-CEPR Conference China in the Global Economy\nChina remains the world’s foremost exporter and a major global investor\, with an economic footprint that continues to shape global markets and political relations. Its state-led economic model and the close alignment of economic and political objectives distinguish China from Western economies\, firmly positioning it at the centre of contemporary geoeconomic dynamics. Renewed geopolitical tensions\, shifting trade policies\, and heightened strategic rivalry—particularly following the return of the Trump administration in the United States in 2025—have added new volatility and uncertainty to international economic relations. Frictions over market access\, competition practices\, and strategic industries have intensified. As these dynamics evolve\, the need for rigorous\, policy-relevant academic research on China’s global economic role has become more pressing than ever. \nBuilding on the success of its previous editions\, the 3rd Kiel-Göttingen-CEPR China Conference will once again bring together leading international scholars to analyse China’s role in the global economy. Hosted in central Berlin\, the conference aims to deepen dialogue between cutting-edge academic research and policy practice. By providing a forum for exchange between researchers\, business practitioners\, and policymakers\, the conference seeks to advance informed debate on China’s economic impact and its implications for international economic relations. \nWe are honored to welcome two distinguished keynote speakers: \n• Chang-Tai Hsieh (University of Chicago\, CEPR and NBER) on “Where is China Heading?” \n• Fabrizio Zilibotti (Yale University\, CEPR and NBER) on “China’s Unbound Prometheus: Growth and Structural Transformation”. \nConference highlights include the Kiel–MERICS Policy Panel on “China Shock 2.0: How Can Europe Shape Its Strategic Response to Geoeconomic Disruption?”\, with Katharina Erhardt (Professor\, Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf; Research Director & Head of Industrial Policy Lab\, Kiel Institute and CEPR)\, Jens Eskelund (President\, European Chamber of Commerce in China)\, Mikko Huotari (Director\, Mercator Institute for China Studies) and Joanna Szychowska (Director\, Directorate B – Asia (I)\, Services and Investment\, Digital Trade\, Intellectual Property and Public Procurement\, DG Trade\, European Commission) as panelists. \nThe program also features a special live edition of Global China Conversations on “China Shock 2.0: How Can the German Automotive Industry Respond?”\, with Manuel Kallweit (Head of Economic Intelligence\, German Association of the Automotive Industry\, VDA)\, Karoline Rogge (Professor of Sustainability Innovation and Policy\, University of Sussex Business School and Fraunhofer ISI)\, and Sander Tordoir (Chief Economist\, Centre for European Reform and CEPR) as speakers. \nThe conference will feature around 30 presentations of recent research on China in the global economy. Confirmed speakers include Philipp Boeing (Goethe University Frankfurt and ZEW)\, Julian Hinz (University of Bielefeld\, Kiel Institute and CEPR)\, Jiandong Ju (Tsinghua University and CEPR)\, Soo Yeon Kim (University of British Columbia)\, Bingjing Li (University of Hong Kong)\, Faqin Lin (China Agricultural University)\, Layna Mosley (Princeton University)\, Andrea Presbitero (International Monetary Fund and CEPR)\, and Johannes Van Biesebroeck (KU Leuven and CEPR). \nFurther details here.
