Manchester is both the cradle of capitalism and a city that has shaped efforts to imagine a new, post-capitalist, world.
In this, the 200th anniversary of the birth of Karl Marx, expert historians, policy advisors and economists from the department of History at The University of Manchester will present a round table discussion on the history of capitalism and the different ways its discontents have sought to reform, escape or overthrow the system.
Confirmed participants from the History Department include:
Chris Godden
Georg Christ
Aahish Velkar
Patrick Doyle
This event is presented in partnership with Manchester Histories and forms part of a day of debating and discussing topics that have or are shaping our histories and society.
