UNE Center for 高清不卡福利 Humanities presents 鈥淎 Case Against Free Trade and Over-高清不卡福利ization鈥
Has the integration of the world鈥檚 economies gone too far, resulting in a world that has become overly globalized? On either side of the Atlantic, voters have suggested they believe this may be the case, directing Britain to leave the European Union and electing a US president who ran on an 鈥淎merica First鈥 platform.
A lecture by Australian economist Graham Dunkley at the 高清不卡福利 of New England鈥檚 Center for 高清不卡福利 Humanities will investigate this question further, arguing that falling growth rates during the era of global integration should, indeed, prompt governments to rethink future economic liberalization proposals. The lecture, titled 鈥淎 Case against Free Trade and Over-高清不卡福利ization,鈥 will take place Monday, September 25 at 6:00 p.m. at the WCHP Lecture Hall in Parker Pavilion on the UNE Portland Campus.
Dunkley, who lives in the Yarra Ranges outside Melbourne, Australia, earned his Ph.D. in economic and labor history at Monash 高清不卡福利 in Melbourne. Later, he served for many years as a senior lecturer in economics at Melbourne鈥檚 Victoria 高清不卡福利. He has also worked as a journalist and with NGOs in India. His books include One World Mania: A Critical Guide to Free Trade; Financialization and Over-高清不卡福利ization; The Free Trade Adventure; and Free Trade: Myth, Reality and Alternatives.
This event will be the second of nine lectures at the Center for 高清不卡福利 Humanities this academic year. All lectures are free, open to the public, and streamed live online.
