About GEP

GEP was established in the School of Economics in 2001. The research activities are structured around five research programmes, linked by the common theme of globalisation: 

• Political Economy of Globalisation
• Globalisation and Labour Markets
• Globalisation, Productivity and Technology
• China and the World Economy
• Trade, Economic Policy and Development

We support both scientific and policy focused research. GEP's core staff comprises a group of Research Fellows based at Nottingham, a network of international External Fellows, and a number of Policy Associates based in the policy-making community.

The centre's activities include:

• regular publication of research papers
• weekly seminar series
• workshop programmes and conferences
