In-person location: Elebash Recital Hall
After unprecedented economic growth during the 20th century, is the U.S. losing its place as a world power? How have China’s economic rise and its growing class of uber-wealthy elites shaken up its society? How are the seismic changes to both countries reshuffling the global economic order? Are Trump, Xi Jinping, and Putin — all products of neoliberal globalization — leading its reversal? A panel of experts discusses questions raised in the new book by Branko Milanovic, author of Capitalism, Alone and other landmark works, who is a research professor at the Stone Center on Socio-Economic Inequality, CUNY Graduate Center.
Featuring Qin Gao, professor of social policy and social work at Columbia University; Daniel Markovitz, professor at Yale Law School and author of The Meritocracy Trap; and Adam Tooze, professor of History of Columbia University and author of Shutdown: How Covid Shook the World Economy. Janet Gornick, professor of Political Science and Sociology and director of the Stone Center on Socio-Economic Inequality at the CUNY Graduate Center, moderates.
Presented with the Graduate Center.
A video of this event will be posted later on the Graduate Center’s YouTube Channel.
