Fiscal Matters Closing Event: Fiscal 2.0 - A Roadmap for the future?
Event Information
About this event
Speakers: Joseph Stiglitz, Marco Buti, Dominika Biegon, Steve Keen, Philipp Heimberger, Aurore Lalucq
This seminar will close the week of debate, #FiscalMatters. The discussion will be dedicated to the new economic governance and a possible revised fiscal framework to put the European Union on the right track for the future. To this end, the New Economics Foundation and the European Trade Union Confederation are organising a seminar with high-level speakers and panellists. Margins of manoeuvre on fiscal rules exist between economic, legal, institutional boundaries and we should be upfront about these possibilities.
This seminar will therefore bring the views of different academics, politicians, trade unionists and civil society stakeholders, to build back better, indeed, but to build on different bases, taking seriously into account ecological transition, inequalities including gender and race and how this feeds into global social issues, for a new development model ensuring just transitions and social progress.
