Beyond Capitalism Debate Series

Shareholder primacy has dominated corporate governance for half a century. Can it address existential threats like climate change—or does it accelerate them? Hosted by the new Berkeley-Haas student organization Beyond Capitalism and the Center for Responsible Business, this in-person debate will draw on expertise from across the campus and beyond. We invite your curiosity to question and openness to learn about the tenets of our current economic structure.

This event is open to UC Berkeley students. Lunch will be provided.
