Economics and Politics Section
The LASA Organized Section on Economics and Politics (formerly Business and Politics) exists to facilitate scholarly exchanges around questions of the intersection of politics and markets, capitalist enterprise and democracy, macro and microeconomics, business organization and economic growth, and the national and international regulatory environments for production and distribution.  We welcome those employing both quantitative and qualitative research strategies.

This website is designed to further exchange and dissemination by listing contact information for members, posting recent papers and projects, and organizing relevant links to other sources of information on business. If you would like to add information on your research, please contact the website administrator listed below.
