RETHINKING ECONOMICS: conference explores a new approach

Paul krugman, Deirdre mccloskey, richard wolff and more

Presented by Students at The New School and Columbia Law School
Friday, September 12 through Sunday, September 14

 

WHAT:

North America's leading economic minds will gather in New York City to reimagine their field.

Rethinking Economics is a student-led global movement to create fresh economic narratives that challenge and enrich the predominant narratives in economics. The movement unites all who support new ways of thinking. We believe that the mainstream approach to understanding our economy, while definitely valuable, is far too narrow. We value pluralism: the belief that economics should be a more interdisciplinary subject that embraces useful ideas from various schools of thought and subject fields. The New York conference will bring together researchers and students to discuss a new future for economics. Learn more at www.rethinkecon.com
