The Emergence of Systemic Risk as a Pathology of Monetary Government of the Economy

November 24, 2015 / Cambridge, MA

On November 24th, 2015 the IGLP sponsored a seminar by IGLP Residential Fellow Onur Özgöde. Onur discussed how the Federal Reserve came to govern the sector most closely associated with capitalism, finance, against the most fundamental principle of political liberalism, private risk-private reward, by tracing the emergence of systemic risk as a pathology of monetary government of the economy. This seminar was later adapted into a Job Talk at Harvard Law School on February 16, 2016.
