The Discipline of Political Economy and the Journal of Australian Political Economy (JAPE) is hosting a Teaching Political Economy Symposium on Monday December 8th at the University of Sydney. This workshop is being held as part of a suite of events celebrating the 50th anniversary of Political Economy at the University of Sydney. In 1975, a full program of study in political economy was offered for the first time at an Australian university, following a significant student-staff campaign for a pluralist and practical economics curriculum. On this important anniversary, this workshop will feature a range of panels and papers discissing and debating the past, present and future of political economy pedagogy and education both at Sydney and in other institutions in Australia and internationally. Papers presented at the workshop will be considered for inclusion in a dedicated winter 2026 issue of JAPE.
The program for the workshop is available here and reproduced below. Everyone including non-presenters is very welcome to attend. Please register by Monday 1 December for catering purposes.
