The generational changes that have taken place in the Polish economy in the era of turbulent globalization are most often assessed very positively, but there are also critical voices. It is therefore worth once again objectively, analytically, and scientifically assessing what and why we have succeeded and what has not. The 36th TIGER scientific conference "Generational economic transformation and what next?" is devoted to the discussion on systemic economic transformation. Outstanding economists and economic politicians will tell us the story of the same transformation process and the resulting implications for the future seen through the prism of four different threads: "Institutional aspects", "Finance", "Entrepreneurship and management" and "Internationalization of the economy". Join us for the discussion!

„Global Consequences of Russia's Invasion of Ukraine: The Economics and Politics of the Second Cold War” – such is the title of the book by Professor Kolodko published by SPRINGER: “This book highlights the geopolitical and economic consequences of the Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The author, a key architect of Polish economic reforms and the most frequently cited economist from post-Communist countries, shares new insights into the causes and mechanisms of the Second Cold War. Written in an unorthodox, bold and lucid style, the book raises provocative issues and provides convincing answers to some of the most difficult questions, such as who the true beneficiaries and interest groups behind the war are, and what their motives and conflicting goals are. The book also introduces readers to the greatest challenge of our time, climate change, and explores the long-term effects of the current arms race and rearmament spiral on global warming. This interdisciplinary book, which also addresses the challenges of inflation, mass migrations and clashes between democracy and authoritarianism, will appeal to anyone interested in the contemporary geopolitical shifts triggered by the Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but also in the dynamics and directions of the evolution of the new cold war.”
