The New Economic Order
Rosalind Dixon | Richard Holden | Ross Gittins | Judith Sloan
COVID-19 has put enormous pressure on civil liberties, the world of work and our bottom line. It has highlighted fault lines in neoliberal economic orders, from problems of economic inequality, stagnant wages and failing worker protections to the major unaddressed environmental challenge of climate change. But does this mean we should turn towards a radically different economic future? Or do we need to ensure that free markets can also be fair markets? Rosalind Dixon is joined by Ross Gittins, Richard Holden and Judith Sloan.
Presented in partnership with Sydney Writers' Festival.
