L'accent est mis en particulier sur les systèmes politiques, la production de politiques publiques (sociales, culturelles, etc.), les acteurs, les enjeux et les pouvoirs qui conditionnent ces politiques

Program

For its last seminar of the 2020-21 academic year, the Research Centre on the English Speaking World of the University of Sorbonne Nouvelle will welcome Stewart Lansley for his new book The Richer, the Poorer, How Britain enriched the few and failed the poor, a 200 year history (Policy Press, 2021).

Stewart Lansley is visiting fellow at the University of Bristol and specialises in the study of poverty and inequalities in the UK. He helped redefine poverty in the 1980s by publishing Poor Britain with Joanna Mack and using “a consensual methodology” for measuring poverty. He is the author of many books including A Basic Income For All (Compass 2019) and Breadline Britain (Oneworld, 2015). He is a member of council of the Progressive Economy Forum and a Research Associate member of the think-tank Compass.

The seminar will take place online on GoogleMeet on 6^th July between 3.00 pm and 5.00 pm GMT. To register, please send a message to  david.fee@sorbonne-nouvelle.fr
