Moscow workshop
|
PEEER's first workshop at the Higher School of Economics (HSE) was well attended, provoked much debate and was the perfect launch pad for this new energy network. What emerged from the debates was that there are specific important areas of study within the political economy of energy in Europe and Russia which are considered to be under-researched. These topics will form the basis of the call for papers for the PEEER workshop at the University of Warwick in September 2010.
