FT Masterclass Lecture with James Galbraith - "Inequality, Instability and the End of Normal"
James Galbraith will discuss The Great Financial Crisis and how it is best seen as a turning point - the end of a long boom driven by cheap energy, stabilising public institutions and the rule of law in finance. These conditions were eroded by geophysical developments, the rise of China and India, the erosion of social protections and the rise of a confederal Europe, by new technologies and by the breakdown of law and regulation in the financial sector.
