Join us on October 20th at 6:30pm
Are free markets still relevant for today's Europe? Across the political spectrum, interventionism is back in vogue. Critics on the left are pushing for stakeholder capitalism and ESG requirements, while critics on the right are invoking the claims of economic nationalism and corporatism. While these are perennial debates, it is worth considering them anew in the current environment. Please join us on October 20th at 6:30pm for a lecture with Samuel Gregg as he explores the future of markets in Europe and suggests a path forward for freedom and prosperity.
Thank you to the Széchenyi István College for Advanced Studies for their partnership on this event.
