Combating Wealth Inequality - Steven Vogel
Sunday, May 18 1:30 to 3:30PM Zoom Only
At our next General Meeting, we continue on the topic of wealth and inequality but turn it on its head: how can the government make markets work to reduce inequality? Our speaker is Professor Steven K. Vogel, Director of the Political Economy Program, and Professor of Political Science and Political Economy at the University of California, Berkeley. He specializes in the political economy of advanced industrialized nations, especially Japan. His book, Marketcraft: How Governments Make Markets Work (Oxford, 2018), argues that markets do not arise on their own but instead are crafted, primarily by governments, something he calls "marketcraft".
