The shock of the COVID-19 pandemic has laid bare many fault lines of global capitalism. Next to immediate recovery efforts, we need to discuss how the health and economic crises pose fundamental challenges to the rules that govern our social, political and economic lives. This talk will explore the following questions:
- What are the key areas of global capitalism that need rethinking and rebuilding?
- What kind of legal, institutional and governance frameworks need to be challenged and reformulated?
- How can societies shape markets towards inclusive and sustainable capitalism?
