Another new, CIAS based, reserach center was established on the 1st of February. The Family, Household & Economy Research Centre (FamEcon) will start and run two multidisciplinary research projects. The Families, States and Intergenerational Economy (FSIE) project aims to produce empirical results that shift the current mainstream of social policy research by adding families as providers of inter-age transfers to the analytical framework and to become a research group of European significance applying the National Transfer Accounts (NTA) framework, which extends the scope of analysis by including intra-familial transfers and the household economy.

Meanwhile the Household, Financial Culture and Financial Inclusion (HFCFI) project focuses on the examination of the financial knowledge and behaviour of households as well as the preferences, values, attitudes and cultural patterns behind it and it plans to investigate the relationship between financial exclusion and well-being

The book titled Geopolitics in the Twenty-First Century: Territories, Identities, and Foreign Policies edited (and co-authored) by Nuno Morgado (former CIAS junior research fellow) was published on 27 January 2021. The book is dedicated to geopolitics in the 21st century. Despite the great variety of the authors’ academic background and the methodologies, all chapters address the core(s) of geopolitical thought – the territorial and identity-based realities that shape politics, foreign policies, and grand strategies.
