In this wide-ranging conversation, we explore the problematic assumptions underlying mainstream ideas of ‘development,’ why GDP is a profoundly inadequate measure of a country’s economic well-being, and how the globalization of the international economy has shaped the structural dynamics of imperialism as a world system—as well as some of the ways that the global economy needs to be restructured in order to deliver genuine justice and sovereignty for the Global South.

Piketty & Political Economy w/ Ingrid KvangravenAdnan discusses Thomas Piketty’s recent paper, “discovering” that colonialism caused uneven development, with critical political economy and development scholar Dr. Ingrid Kvangraven (@ingridharvold).

يد خفيةتضخّم الجنوبيتكاد تقتصر تفسيرات الاقتصاد الشائع للتضخّم في دول الجنوب على إنفاق الحكومات غير المسؤول من خلال طبع العملة، أو تسجيل معدّلات نمو مرتفعة، وفي أفضل الأحوال يُربَط التضخّم بصدمات العرض العالمية مثل تلك الناتجة عن الحرب الروسية الأوكرانية. لكن نادراً ما ينظر إلى التضخّم في دول الجنوب كنتيجة لموازين القوى المختلّة على مستوى الاقتصاد العالمي. تستضيف هذه الحلقة من «بودكاست يد خفيّة» الباحث والكاتب الاقتصادي محمد جاد لاستكشاف هذه التفسيرات، ومناقشة مسألة التضخّم المرتفع من منظور دول الجنوب الأقل دخلاً، التي أصبحت منذ الثمانينات ظاهرة مقتصرة عليها.ما هي الأسباب الكامنة وراء كون التضخم واحدة من أكثر «الحقائق» المفترضة رسوخاً؟ بعيداً من التفسيرات الاستشراقية عن إفراط الحكومات في الإنفاق وطبع العملة، ما هي أسباب العلاقة العكسية بين مستويات دخل في البلدان المختلفة ومعدلات التضخّم فيها؟ إن تسليط الضوء على التشخيصات الناقصة والأسباب المُتجاهلة، يوكّد أن التدابير المعتمدة للسيطرة على التضخم، ولا سيما رفع أسعار الفائدة، هي علاج غير فعّال للسيطرة على الأسعار. مصادر وقراءات إضافية:1- Florence Dafe, Annina Kaltenbrunner, Ingrid Harvold Kvangraven, Iván Weigandi, “Local Currency Bond Markets in Africa: Resilience and Subordination”.2- Sydney Dell, On Being Grandmotherly, “The evolution of IMF conditionality”.3- Barry Eichengreen, Ricardo Hausmann, “Exchange rates and financial fragility”.4- Osama Diab, “Out of Inflation Control: The IMF and rampant inflation in the MENA”. 4- محمد جاد، كيف سقط الجنيه تحت رحمة المضاربين.5- محمد جاد، هل مشروعات البنية الأساسية السبب في أزمة الديون؟6 - أسامة دياب، نيوليبرالية لوم الضحايا.7- أسامة دياب، هل صندوق النقد عامل انضباط حقًا؟8- محمد جاد وإنغريد كفانغرافين، سياسات الصندوق ترسخ التبعية المالية في مصر.

In this dominant worldview, developing countries need to focus on implementing...2020-10-261h 06
