Subject: Chossudovsky lecture-Thurs., Jan.14
PLEASE DISTRIBUTE WIDELY.
Hello,
This Thursday, for those in the Halifax area, an opportunity nonpareil is
available to examine the international financial system and its effects
and implications. Michel Chossudovsky, who teaches political economy at
the University of Ottawa, will give a public address in Room 224 of the
Dalhousie Student Union Building.
Though Chossudovsky is not well known outside academic and certain
activist circles, few other people anywhere have as comprehensive and
penetrating an understanding of the workings and interplay of global
capital and the Bretton Woods Institutions. His work has been published in
numerous social science journals as well as highly respected general
publications such as Le Monde. Of the books he has written I would
particularly recommend his most recent, _The Globalisation of Poverty_
(1997, Zed Books), which offers close analysis of a number of Structural
Adjustment Programs (SAPs) informed by an understanding of the larger
agenda driving the imposition of SAPs.
Following his talk Chossudovsky will join in a panel discussion with
Michael Bradfield (Economics, Dalhousie), Brian O'Neill (Oxfam) and
Antoni Wysocki (NSPIRG). Audience participation is also encouraged.
