Representing the go-to hub for research, discussion, and collaboration in East-West Economics, the CERGE-EI Foundation, in conjunction with CERGE-EI and Reaction Media, is pleased to present The Price of War: Understanding Conflict Economics in a Volatile World, a one-day symposium.

The Russian attack on Ukraine has brought the existing world order, characterized by globalization and peaceful cooperation, under threat. Long-standing international relationships, supply chains, globalization initiatives, and production processes have been disrupted. This continually evolving situation raises many questions and poses numerous challenges to political and corporate decision makers.

How can the international community, individual states, and companies take action? From a financial and business perspective, how can we understand conflict economics to make sound risk management decisions? What are the historical and long-term consequences in conflict economics that can assist us in our understanding and our decision-making process, not only for today but also for the future?

This symposium will bring together world-renowned experts and business leaders to discuss the economic impact of conflict and will contextualize this discussion within today’s geopolitical developments.
