About us
The Greenwich Political Economy Research Centre (GPERC) was set up in August 2015 with the support and collaboration of the University of Greenwich and the Foundation for European Progressive Studies (FEPS). It is a research centre that brings together an innovative group of researchers who challenges orthodoxies in economic and social science research.
Our research provides concrete and progressive alternatives to the mainstream political economy theory, policy and practice.
Our research builds on multiple methodological approaches such as:
- Dynamic panel data, time series data analysis, survival analysis, input-output analysis
- Stock-flow consistent modelling
- Impact evaluation
- Simulation
- Meta analysis
- Network analysis
- Surveys
- Case studies
- Interviews
- Complexity theory
- Critical realism
- Historical materialism
