Exploring the rhetoric of “freedom”\, Stiglitz explores how pharmaceutical companies\, Big Tech\, and major corporations are setting their own agendas. How did we get here? Whose freedom are we—and should we—be thinking about? \nStiglitz\, author of bestsellers like People\, Power\, and Profits and The Price of Inequality\, is one of Time’s 100 most influential individuals. Currently a professor at Columbia University and chief economist at the Roosevelt Institute\, he offers crucial insights into the future of economic and political freedom. \nDrawing on his experience as an advisor to presidents and chief economist of the World Bank\, Stiglitz will share fresh perspectives on today’s pressing challenges. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from one of the world’s foremost economists! \n\n\n\n\nAbout the speaker:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPhoto credit: Gabriela Sciolino Plump \n\n\n\n\nJoseph E.
