What is the relationship between Philosophy and Political Economy today?  Ever since October 2003, the Centre for Philosophy and Political Economy has considered a variety of responses towards this guiding question.  These responses have been generated out of a collective and ongoing engagement with areas as diverse as cultural studies, feminism and science and technology studies, psychology and social theory, management and organisation studies, philosophy and political economy, and many other fields besides.

The CPPE is based at the School of Management at the University of Leicester.
