“The Technocracy of Austerity: The Politics of Expertise in the Troika during the European Debt Crisis” was delivered at Johns Hopkins University – SAIS on March 30. The seminar was sponsored by the Bernard L. Schwartz Globalization Initiative.
“After the talk, I presented the results of a study on the shifts in economic thinking since 2008 at the Institute for New Economic Thinking annual meeting, which was hosted by OECD (The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) in Paris,” said Ban.
