Paul Krugman, a professor of economics and international affairs at Princeton University, pens a semiweekly column for the op-ed page of the New York Times. In his new book, The Conscience of a Liberal, Krugman studies the past 80 years of American history, from the reforms that tamed the harsh inequality of the Gilded Age to the unraveling of that achievement and the reemergence of political and economic inequality since the 1970s.
An American Sign Language interpreter will be present for the entire event.
