8/ Claire Tow Prof of History @BarnardCollege @premillanadasen’s project “Social Reproduction and the Politics of Work,” will convene key theorists & practitioners to discuss scholarship of care & social reproduction & its political stakes. #ColumbiaWorldProjects
We are excited to host a conversation between @baselinescene and @RanaForoohar where they will discuss how we can harness technology to build a new economic system that promotes equity and shared prosperity. Join us in person or online by registering here! https://t.co/yaMzgMqHA4
In their new book Power & Progress, @DAcemogluMIT and @baselinescene shed light on how wealth generated by technology is often captured by the elite, resulting not in shared prosperity but in greater extraction. However, a different future is possible. #PowerandProgress
Foroohar presents an alternative path. She proposes utilizing new technologies to support place-based economies, ensuring that operations, investment, and wealth remain closer to home, wherever that may be. Let's explore this promising way forward. #EconomicTransformation
Join us for our final Big Ideas Book Series event of the semester with Simon Johnson and @RanaForoohar on Thursday, May 18, at 4:15 pm. Open to the public.
