Instruments of Capitalism (with authors Clara Mattei & Quinn Slobodian)

Join us for a book talk with scholars Clara E. Mattei (The Capital Order) and Quinn Slobodian (Crack-Up Capitalism) as they discuss and connect the themes from their newest books. Joined by historian Adam Tooze (Shutdown: How Covid Shook the World’s Economy), their discussion will illuminate the economic systems and strategies—from austerity, to tax havens, and beyond—that serve as the instruments that uphold and protect the capitalist system.
