What’s Wrong with the Global Economy? with Costas Lapavitsas

Strategy is not just a word. Strategy is about how we all within the trade union and wider labour movement build the power and capacity to improve workers lives. The employers have strategy, the managers have strategy, and it is vital that as a united
labour movement we build our own. This series will include discussions from leading thinkers on; reviving the trade union movement, how we build union strategy, the role of women and feminist approaches to our unions, strategies for developing activists and the capacity to win campaigns big and small.

This session will be joined by Costas Lapavitsas.

Costas is Professor of Economics at SOAS, University of London.
His research has focused on the Eurozone and the
financialisation of capitalism. Widely published in the academic field, taught at several well-known universities.

Deadline for applications is: 4 September 2025.
