Invitation & Call for Papers

Dear Colleagues,

the German Economy Research Department at the World Economy Research Institute, the German Polish Academic Forum and the Research Centre for European Integration at the Institute of International Economic Policy of the SGH Warsaw School of Economics in cooperation with the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung in Poland cordially invite you to this year’s Polish-German scientific conference on the topic

New Challenges for the social market economies in Poland and Germany between market-oriented and digital transformation

on October 7-8, 2020

at SGH Warsaw School of Economics

Main building G,

al. Niepodległości 162, 02-554 Warsaw, Poland

Thirty years ago, with the fall of the Berlin Wall and the dissolution of the Soviet Union, a process of political and economic transformation began in the region. The two-day conference will discuss what lessons can be learned from the transformation in (East) Germany and Poland, but also in other Central and Eastern European countries, and how current challenges of the social market economy in Germany and Poland as well as in the bilateral relations between the two countries can be met. One of these challenges is digitization, which has the potential to bring about a further drastic transformation of the economy and society. Therefore, a special focus of this conference is devoted to the digital transition.

We invite representatives from economics, political sciences and related disciplines as well as practitioners from business and politics to discuss various aspects of past and current challenges of economic and societal transformations in Poland, Germany and beyond.

We would be very happy to welcome you and your written and/or oral contribution to the discussion.

Please register for participation and a conference contribution by August 30, 2020 via e-mail to Prof. Jürgen Wandel (jwande@sgh.waw.pl or jwandel@gmx.de).

Further information can be found in the conference leaflet with the call for papers.
