Evgeny Vinokurov
Eurasian Development Bank (EDB), Centre for Integration Studies, Russia
Short bio note:
Dr. Evgeny Vinokurov is the founding director of the EDB Centre
for Integration Studies since 2011. The Centre specializes
in quantitative research but also engages in qualitative analysis and
carries out activities in the following fields: economic integration in
the Eurasian Economic Union, mutual investment and corporate
integration, trade economics, fiscal and monetary issues,
cooperation in the market for financial services, systematic research
of Eurasian integration based on the theories of regional and global
integration. Over the last four years, the Centre realized 50+ projects and published
30+ reports. The Centre works extensively for national ministries, presidential administrations
and the Eurasian Economic Commission.
Dr. Vinokurov was educated at the universities of Kaliningrad, Fairfield, Göttingen, Grenoble
and Moscow. He earned a Ph.D. in economy from Pierre Mendes-France University (Grenoble
II) and Dr. hab. in economy from the Institute of World Economy and International Relations
(IMEMO), Moscow. After several years of experience in applied economy research projects at
the Centre for European Policy Studies (CEPS), Catholic University of Leuven and the
University of Jena he proceeded to working with the EDB, being responsible for macro- and
microeconomic analysis in particular, as well as the development bank's research program.
He has actively been engaged in studying economic and political integration. In the EDB,
Vinokurov focused on the issues of economic integration in the post-Soviet space and Eurasia.
Vinokurov argued in favor of solidifying ‘the integration core’ in the post-Soviet space, thus
providing conceptual underpinning for the emerging EEU. Together with A. Libman he
developed a theory of ‘holding-together regionalism’ to explain the patterns of regional re-
integration processes. His research also focuses on integration processes across the Eurasian
continent, spanning Europe, Russia, Central, South and Eastern Asia. This approach
differentiates itself by the continental scope, covering the fastest growing regions of the world
and concentrating on the emerging economic and political linkages in Eurasia. It provides a
coherent view of Eurasian continental integration. The concept of Eurasian continental
integration was the subject of the book ‘Eurasian Integration: Challenges of Transcontinental
Regionalism’. Vinokurov argues that cooperation in should be based on multiple overlapping
integration projects of primarily functional nature involving governments, sub-national and
supranational institutions. He further argues that open regionalism in Eurasia is an economically
optimal supplement to regional integration initiatives, in particular to post-Soviet integration.
Member of the International Studies Association (ISA) and the University Association for

Henry Liu
University of Missouri, USA
Short bio-note:
The Wall Street Journal reported on the front page of its September
20, 1978 edition that the government of the People’s Republic of
China, in its historic move to open trade with the US, appointed
Henry C.K. Liu, a Hong Kong-born, American-educated professor
of architecture, as advisor to the PRC General Administration for
Travel and Tourism, with authority to conduct negotiations with US
companies on the development of tourism, including hotels and
tourism-related transportation, a program that kick-started China’s
economic reform and development. Since then, for two decades, Mr.
Liu has provided unofficial advice to several Chinese government ministries on US-China
relations, economic development and monetary policy. Since the Asian Financial Crisis of 1997,
he has also provided policy advice to several other governments of developing countries on ways
to deal with monetary crises created by financial globalization. Since the global credit crisis that
broke out in mid 2007, Mr. Liu, having predicted its inevitability as early as 2005, has been
providing advice to several governments on policy in response to the crisis.
Mr. Liu studied architecture, urban design and development at Harvard, graduating in 1960. He
was Chairman of the Graduate Urban Design Department at UCLA from 1964-69, during which
he designed a research facility for the UCLA Brain Research Institute for which he received a
national design award in 1967. He received a Certificate of Meritorious Service from the Mayor
of Los Angeles in 1966 for his work on formulating goals for the future of the city. He has also
served as visiting professor on the faculty at Harvard and Columbia. His interest in economics
began with interdisciplinary work in urban planning, design and development.
Mr. Liu has worked as a consultant for private clients, including Arkansas Governor, the late
Winthrop Rockefeller, for whom he planned the development of over 20,000 acres of land in
Arkansas and Tennessee that received a national urban design award in 1968. Among his other
private sector clients was the Ford Motor Company for which he provided development advice
on real estate. He also advised New York Governor, the late Nelson Rockefeller, on urban
development and clean water policy during the latter’s governorship of New York State.
Mr. Liu was a developer of commercial real estate in New York during 1970-1980 initiating
major projects in New York and Washington D.C. that later were sold profitably to other
developers.
Mr. Liu is now chairman of a New York based private investment group, a Visiting Professor of
Global Development at the Economics Department at University of Missouri at Kansas City and
an Honorary Professor at the HuaZhong University of Science and Technology in Wuhan, China.
He is also a senior global economic analyst for Xinhua News, China’s official news agency.
Commentaries by Mr. Liu on geopolitics, economics, history, culture and philosophy appear
regularly in Asia Times on Line (atimes.com) and on his website: henryckliu.com and
liaoziguang.org (in Chinese). His articles are widely read, receiving some 75,000 hits on the first
day of publication regularly and often reposted in many different languages on the Internet. A
map on the website shows the location of visitors to it around the globe.
His commentaries are carried on the website of Top Wonks, a Progressive list of experts, and
also on Next New Deal, the blog of the Roosevelt Institute.
Mr. Liu is recognized as having coined the term “dollar hegemony” in his 2002 article in
AsiaTimes to describe a geopolitically-constructed peculiarity through which critical
commodities, the most notable being oil, are denominated in fiat dollars, not backed by gold or
other species since President Nixon took the dollar off gold in 1971. The recycling of petro-
dollars into other dollar assets is the price the US has extracted from oil-producing countries for
US tolerance for the oil-exporting cartel since 1973. Dollar hegemony separates the trade value
of every other currency from direct connection to the productivity of the issuing economy to link
it directly to the size of dollar reserves held by the currency issuing central bank. Dollar
hegemony enables the US to own indirectly but essentially the entire global economy by
requiring its wealth to be denominated in fiat dollars that the US can print at will with little
monetary penalties.
Mr. Liu is known as having advocating in his public lectures that China should denominate its
export in its own currency (RMB) to reduce the adverse effects of dollar hegemony. The
approach has since been adopted by the Chinese government.
He has also proposed developing China's domestic economy with sovereign credit in lieu of
relying on foreign capital, so as to finance a national policy of full employment with rising
wages.
