Apply!

As an alum of the 2018 SIEG in Ghent and now a local organizer of the 2026 Toronto edition, I can say this is an incredible opportunity for early-career scholars to learn, connect, and collaborate within the economic geography community. Apply by Dec 22 and see you in Toronto next year!

A stellar line-up has been assembled to support the development of early career economic geographers. This annual Summer Institute has boosted many research trajectories, so it's definitely worth applying if you're eligible.

This looks amazing - one more week for early-career scholars to apply.

In Capital vol. 3, Marx writes that he wants to examine capitalism in its "idealen Durchschnitt." This is usually translated as "ideal average," but I believe a more accurate translation would be "ideal cross-section." I think this is a geological metaphor rather than a mathematical one. 1/5

Looks amazing 👀 Now just have to find funding go get to GCEG.
