Location
University of Greenwich, Queen Anne Building Room QA38, Park Row,

Accommodation
Hardship funding
PKSG
has set aside a fixed sum of hardship funding to assist with the accommodation and
UK travel costs of students selected to present a paper at the conference
(please note this does not include the costs of travel to the UK). If you are
accepted and are unable to secure funding elsewhere, you are warmly encouraged
to apply to the PKSG Secretary (Mark Hayes m.g.hayes@durham.ac.uk) by email in
the first instance, indicating your total UK travel expenses and the amount
that you need to find from your own pocket. Applications should be made no
later than 30 June 2015 and will then be considered as a group. If the
requirement exceeds the fund available, the fund will be allocated pro-rata at
the discretion of PKSG. If you are made an award, you will then need to present
receipts before payment will be made, by bank transfer to a UK bank account, or
otherwise by PayPal. Please note that there is no participation fee.

Post Keynesian Economics Study Group (PKSG)
PKSG was founded
in 1988 by Philip Arestis and Victoria Chick with the support of the UK
Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC). The purpose of the Study Group is
to encourage collaboration among scholars and students of Post Keynesian
economics, defined broadly as a theoretical approach that draws upon the work
of Keynes, Kalecki, Joan Robinson, Kaldor, Kahn and Sraffa. This approach is
distinguished by the central role of the principle of effective demand (that
demand matters in the long run) and an insistence that history, social structure
and institutional practice be embodied in its theory and reflected in its
policy recommendations. These aims broadly correspond to those of Cambridge
Journal of Economics, Journal of Post Keynesian Economics, Review of Political
Economy and Intervention: European Journal of Economics and Economic Policies. http://www.postkeynesian.net/index.html
