Emerging Economies Speaker Series: Economic Nationalism
Start Date: 5/4/2017Start Time: 4:00 PM
End Date: 5/4/2017End Time: 6:00 PM

Event Description
Join the Department of History and the Institute for New Economic Thinking for a panel discussion on economic nationalism.

 

Melissa Teixeira, PhD (Harvard University), examines Brazil and the rise of economic nationalism in Vargas-era Brazil that turned even basic market transactions into potential crimes, with new legal institutions and police powers created to “defend” and “protect” the “national” economy.

Jeremy Friedman, PhD (Harvard Business School), examines Tanzania and the development plans of Julius Nyerere as he sought to build Tanzanian socialism based on a vision of “Ujamaa” or family-hood, socialism without class struggle, focused on agricultural rather than industrial development, and relying on Tanzania’s own resources rather than foreign aid.

Discussant: David Ludden, PhD (New York University)
