“Historically, pandemics have forced humans to break with the past and imagine their world anew. This one is no different”
- Arundhati Roy, ‘The pandemic is a portal’
In a series live-streamed sit-ins during the Covid-19 pandemic, we invite a number of researchers to present one idea related to the our series theme “Disasters, Disaster Capitalism, and Beyond” in 20 minutes. After the presentation, we invite the virtual audience for questions and discussion through chat or audio.
On June 11, we will talk about "Stocks for All: How to Create People’s Capitalism in the Twenty-First Century?" with Petri Mäntysaari. The talk is based on a commercial law monograph project that has taken three years. The purpose of the book is to reduce financial inequalities in the EU and the US by increasing the number of good companies with publicly traded shares and retail investors’ direct share ownership.
Remember to put a beer in the fridge and join your colleagues for a semi-informal after-work @home!
