Professor Susan J. Smith, FBA, FRSE, AcSS, Mistress of Girton College

'Care-full markets: miracle or mirage?'

The 2010 Tanner Lectures are concerned with the compatibility, or otherwise, of market-dominated economies with an ethic of care. A key question is whether economic wrongs can be righted, and financial ills made good, not by arguing against markets, but by making a bid for them. Housing markets provide the touchstone for discussion. After all, the ‘noughties’ financial crisis stemmed from events in the housing economy; just as the sustainability of recovery depends on the effective management of home assets and mortgage debt.

Respondants:
Prof. Gavin Wood
Dr. Marja Elsinga
Mr. Matthew Bullock
Ms. Kate Barker

The lectures are given by Professor Susan Smith on 3rd November at 5pm. The respondants discussion will be on 4th November at 9.30am.

Cost: free, tickets required
