Why is globalisation being rejected? What will a world ruled by rival states with conflicting aims look like? And will the pursuit of nationalist agendas result in a race to the bottom?

 

These are among the questions addressed in his latest book by renowned economist Stephen King, who is a Senior Economic Adviser at HSBC and a NIESR Trustee.

 

Join us for a drink reception at which Nicholas Macpherson, the former Permanent Secretary to the Treasury and cross-bench peer, will introduce the book in conversation with Stephen King.

 

The book, published by Yale University Press, will be available to purchase.

The Institute is committed to providing equality of access to services and facilities and to the development of an inclusive environment for all visitors and staff, and we aim to offer assistance and support wherever possible to any visitor who has a disability.  Please do let us know in advance how we can assist your visit to the Institute – we are happy to discuss with you how we can support you.  Due to the nature of our Grade II listed building we are unable to provide step-free access to our facilities and the Library is not currently accessible to wheelchair users or those with limited mobility, but we are developing resources to access events via video link or conference call, and would welcome feedback on how to improve access for all.
