CRIMT is pleased to invite you to attend a public webinar on Ian Greer (ILR School, Cornell University) and Charles Umney’s (Leeds University) new book Marketization. How Capitalist Exchange Disciplines Workers and Subverts Democracy (London: Bloomsbury, 2022). The book examines how the state and capital use markets to discipline the working class, providing a comprehensive overview of the European political economy, from the European Commission to the workplace, to show how neoliberal principles translate into market mechanisms and reshape the lives of workers.
In an informal exchange with the authors, Étienne Cantin (Université Laval), Philippe Pochet (ETUI) and Valeria Pulignano (KU Leuven) will discuss their main take-aways from the book. Vincent Pasquier (HEC Montréal) will act as facilitator for this discussion.
This webinar will take place on Zoom, on Monday March 6th at 12:00, Montreal time. No advance registration required ; simply to show up on the scheduled date and time.
It will take place in English, but linguistic facilitation will be provided for webinar participants who want to comment or ask questions in French. It will also be recorded for further dissemination.
