In the year of the 45th anniversary of the 25th of April, the 2nd Annual Meeting of Political Economy brings to the centre of debate two of the three original Ds – Democracy and Development – and adds an I that eventually contradicts them – Inequality. Without systemic rivals at the global level, increasing socioeconomic disparities, the spectrum of stagnation and democratic impotency, marks contemporary capitalism. The proposal is, then, an informed and plural collective reflection on development policies and the best scales to carry them out and legitimate; a reflection on the means, but also on the ends.
