Organisation: Studium Generale

What is the cause of the current economic crisis and how do we get out of it? Join Prof. Sweder van Wijnbergen (UvA) to explore the problems facing the monetary and financial system.

Reflect with him on debt, growth, risk, consumerism, stability and other economic building blocks. Find out what happens when supervisory boards fail and watch dogs lay sleeping. What does the future have in store given the Euro zone debt, China’s currency flow and America’s housing crisis? Is it possible to get out of this mess?
