Sanctions, “accelerating globalization,” and the Global South
Conversation with Michael Hudson, Kathleen Tyson and Steve Keen.
Together, they will discuss:

- How the legacies of imperialism and debt continue to shape the world order;
- What true economic sovereignty for the Global South could look like;
- Practical strategies for rethinking value, debt, and care in a changing world.
These dialogues continue Graeber’s and Hudson’s shared commitment to exposing injustice and imagining new possibilities for global solidarity and economic transformation.
