Capitalism and Knowledge Economy

This cluster explores the interplay between transnational economic change and national and local responses in advanced and emerging markets. It analyzes how national institutions adapt to global dynamics, such as digital labor platforms and economic crises, and how these adaptations influence capitalist transformation. It focuses on the role of diverse actors - from governments to labor movements - in shaping these processes. By examining strategies of coordination and knowledge transfer among policy and social actors, this cluster aims to illuminate the impact of contemporary capitalist developments on social structures and individual lives.
