Virtual Workshop : Daniela Gabor – The Wall Street Consensus and Bidenomics

MONDAY, MAY 20, 2024 FROM 1:30PM TO 3PM EST

The Law and Political Economy Program at HLS and Just Money are pleased to host Professor Daniela Gabor (University of the West of England, Bristol) for a special virtual workshop presentation of her forthcoming book, The Wall Street Consensus. In this much-anticipated scholarly work, Professor Gabor examines the public-private partnerships at the heart of modern finance and analyzes the role of central bankers and shadow banks.

The workshop will focus on a draft chapter from the book addressing the so-called “Bidenomics” agenda. Following brief opening remarks by Professor Gabor, participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and provide comments on the draft chapter.

Registration

Please email Dr. Pierre-Christian Fink (pfink@law.harvard.edu) no later than Wednesday, May 15 to receive the Zoom link for the virtual workshop and a pre-circulated copy of the chapter. Workshop participants will be expected to have read the draft chapter in advance of the event.
