Join UCL IIPP to discuss the 2008 financial crash and the crisis in neoliberal economics with Damon Silvers.
About this Event

The first of two lectures, this discussion will look at the 2008 financial crisis and will seek to dispel a number of myths that have spread about the crisis since. It will examine the deep roots of the crisis in the neoliberal economic model, the nature of how the crisis emerged and unfolded, and the core character of the policy response of the countries at its centre.

The lecture will be presented by Professor Damon Silvers, Visiting Professor of Practice at UCL IIPP and Former Deputy Chair of the US Congressional Oversight Panel for Troubled Asset Relief Program.
