IBL Lecture: Prof. Dani Rodrik on Globalization's Wrong Turn

About the Program
To fix globalization, we need to understand where we took a wrong turn. In this lecture, Professor Dani Rodrik will explore the shift to what he calls “hyperglobalization” that took place during the 1990s and why it was based on a faulty understanding of how markets work. He will then outline an alternative perspective that is more consistent with inclusive prosperity at home while preserving multilateralism abroad.

The lecture will be immediately followed by a roundtable discussion.
