Workshop on Inequality, Finance and Secular Stagnation
Overview
The economic and financial crisis began in October 2007, and set in motion a number of events that contributed to the largest economic recession since the Great Depression of 1929. This workshop will explore the causes and policy solutions to this on-going crisis, by emphasizing a dissenting and critical view of current economic policies. The participants in this workshop place institutions and income inequality at the heart of their analysis of economic growth.
