The academic and political debate on geoeconomics is experiencing a renaissance. The term ranges from placing economic resources within the hard security toolkit in the sense of "war by other means" (Kittrie 2015; Blackwill and Harris 2016) to a strategic exploitation of asymmetric interdependence in international economic relations (Farrell and Newman 2019) to the analysis of comparatively 'soft' extraterritorial effects of domestic lawmaking (Luttwak 1990; Goldthau and Sitter 2015). What unites them is a state-centric analysis of (private) economic action. The workshop brings together eminent scholars from the fields of economics, law and political science. 

The workshop will take place on May 11, 2023, from 3pm - 6pm. Additionally, an evening event is scheduled for 8 pm.
