Europe on the Brink; Debt Crisis and Dissent in the European Periphery Public talk & book launch             25 July 19:00–21:00 Lombokstraat 40, Amsterdam Europe is suffering from a bipolar economic disorder. Financial journalists divide the continent into two groups of nations - centre and periphery - not by geography but by credit rating. Europe on the Brink is a critical investigation of the root causes of this sovereign debt crisis, and the often misguided policy choices made to resolve it. This much-needed book offers a heterodox economic perspective on the causes, symptoms and solutions of the biggest economic issue currently facing Europe. With Tony Phillips, Coordinating Editor of Europe on the Brink; Debt Crisis and Dissent in the European Periphery http://zedbooks.co.uk/node/17830), and Sol Trumbo Transnational Institute (TNI). Moderated by Alex Merlo (IIRE). Free entrance Join us on facebook http://www.tni.org/events/europe-brink About the book: Nobel Laureate Joseph Stiglitz, together with two other finance experts, compares debt contagion in Europe with regional financial crises elsewhere, while Roberto Lavagna, former economics minister in Argentina, provides a poignant comparative analysis with his own country’s experience. Crucially and uniquely, Portuguese, Greek and Irish economists provide hard-hitting case studies from the perspective of the periphery. The Transnational Institute carries out cutting-edge analysis on critical global issues, builds alliances with grassroots social movements, develops proposals for a more sustainable and just world. http://www.tni.org To unsubscribe from this newsletter use this link To opt out from all TNI mailings use this link
