The climate crisis is acc elerating. Inequality is deepening. Public trust is crumbling. Wealth conc entrates in fewer hands while governments scramble to fix what markets can ’t do\, rather than to shape them from the outset. For too long\, econom ics has treated ‘the good’ – whether public goods or the commons – as merely correcting market or government failures. But you cannot do goo d without a new theory of what good actually is. This economic framing tra ps us in an endless cycle of being reactive patching problems rather than proactively building the economy we need.Mariana Mazzucato will explore he r new theory of the common good with LSE President Larry Kramer— how can we allow governments and businesses to develop purposeful economic relati onships\, creating value and building spaces where human flourishing can h appen?Meet our speaker and chairMariana Mazzucato is Professor in the Econ omics of Innovation and Public Value at University College London (UCL)\, where she is Founding Director of the UCL Institute for Innovation & Publi c Purpose.
