A two-day workshop at Cambridge will bring together world-leading scholars of Geography and International Political Economy with the aim of establishing a new interdisciplinary research trajectory for the study of the international monetary order. The project will help contribute to the following goals:
• Foster international connections required to develop and promote a long-term research project on the topic of the international monetary order, with a special focus on China and East Asia.
• Identify potential for research collaboration and potential academic research outputs arising from collaboration.
• Develop a new theoretical and conceptual basis through which to understand contemporary global financial transformations.
• Contribute to the research agenda of the Cambridge Centre for Rising Powers and enhance its international standing.
• Enhance the profile of research on China’s political economy and international role within Cambridge and the wider global network of universities.
• Formulate plans for a future major interdisciplinary research-grant bid on the topic of China’s role within a changing international monetary order.
