The COVID-19 pandemic has created job losses and employment-preserving interventions by governments on a scale not seen since the Great Depression of the 1930s. But even before the pandemic, the consensus that a level of unemployment was a necessary evil in order to prevent inflation was being challenged. In this event, we will debate the idea of a public job guarantee scheme and consider how it could help us recover from the pandemic and support a Green New Deal. We’re joined by three international experts on these topics from the U.S., Britain and France.
