Professor Bill Dunn

About

I joined Kingston in 2022. From 2005 to 2022, I worked in the Department of Political Economy at the University of Sydney and before that at the Universities of Leeds, Bristol and the West of England. My principal research interests are in global political economy and in Marxism. My most recent books are on Keynes and Marx (Manchester University Press 2021), Neither Free Trade nor Protection (Edward Elgar 2015) and The Political Economy of Global Capitalism and Crisis (Routledge 2014). I also edited A Research Agenda for Critical Political Economy (Edward Elgar 2020).
