Join TNI's Wednesday webinar with panellists Professor Jayati Ghosh, Quinn Slobodian and Walden Bello 

8 April webinar: Our response to the coming global recession

An incredible 670 people joined our first webinar on building an internationalist response to COVID-19. Hundreds more listened to the recording. The response shows that many worldwide are looking for global perspectives on this crisis that grapple with the pandemic’s structural causes and impacts.

TNI is glad therefore to announce we will be running a weekly Wednesday webinar series throughout April that will explore many of these themes further.

Based on feedback from our first webinar, our second webinar at 4pm CET, Wednesday 8 April, will focus on the economic fallout from COVID-19. Many are predicting a global recession that could have bigger social impacts than the virus itself. What can we expect? How should we prepare? What can social movements learn from our failures to advance alternative progressive policies in the wake of the 2008 economic crisis?


To address these questions, we are excited to be joined by a stellar cast of panellists including:

Professor Jayati Ghosh, award-winning economist Jawaharlal Nehru University, India. Author of The Market That Failed ; A Decade of Neoliberal Economic Reforms in India (2009)

Quinn Slobodian, associate professor of history, Wellesley College. Author of Globalists: The End of Empire and the Birth of Neoliberalism (2018)

Walden Bello, author of Paper Dragons: China and the Next Crash (2019) and Capitalism’s Last Stand?: Deglobalization in the Age of Austerity (2013)
