The Threat of Capitalism Without Democracy, with Martin Wolf

An in-person talk titled "The Threat of Capitalism Without Democracy, with Martin Wolf", part of the Intelligence Squared series at Conway Hall. Martin Wolf, the chief economics commentator at the Financial Times, marks the launch of an updated edition of his book The Crisis of Democratic Capitalism. He argues that democratic capitalism, the pairing of free markets and free elections, is under attack, citing Donald Trump's tariffs, Elon Musk's alignment with far right parties and the rise of extreme parties worldwide, and makes the case for why the combination of both democracy and capitalism is needed more than ever. The audience can ask questions in a live Q&A.
