PEKEA 4th international conference in Rennes, France (4-6 Nov. 2005)
invites you to come and debate on the theme Democracy and Economy

PEKEA (Political and Ethical Knowledge on Economic Activities) is a world think tank network to build a new knowledge about economic activities. It is backed by more than 700 researchers in the field of human and social science and links thousands of people around the world, through associations of the civil society and citizens involved in local governments.

We will explore in Rennes what are the necessary links between "Democracy and Economy" in order to organize, according to "our societal values", a process to find our way towards "a common feasible future". We supposed that it is necessary that power is kept by the people and all its visible members, and it is not left to the economy, with its invisible face: this would lead to set up an Ecocracy without any responsibility from anyone.

PEKEA is expecting you in Rennes (France) with contributions of different types: Theoretical and empirical analyses and also monographs and reports of observations and experiences, all based on a multidisciplinary spirit with an oral presentation based on a synopsis or/and a short or a longer paper.
