Joseph Stiglitz | THE ROAD TO FREEDOM presented by Bookshop Santa Cruz and The Humanities Institute at UC Santa Cruz
Tue Sep 17, 2024 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM PDT
London Nelson Community Center, 95060
Description
We are a nation born from the conviction that people must be free. But since the middle of the last century, that idea has been co-opted. Forces on the political Right have justified exploitation by cloaking it in the rhetoric of freedom, leading to pharmaceutical companies freely overcharging for medication, a Big Tech free from oversight, politicians free to incite rebellion, corporations free to pollute, and more. How did we get here? Whose freedom are we—and should we—be thinking about?
Join us as we welcome Nobel Prize-winning economist and best-selling author Joseph Stiglitz to discuss these questions and more. To learn more about the author and book, visit https://www.bookshopsantacruz.com/joseph-stiglitz
