He will be arguing that a number of old debates around capitalism have returned to the fore – mainly around class conflict, distributive justice, elite control and technological preponderance. In short, the lessons of political economy remain as relevant as ever before, albeit in a different cadence.BIO FOR JOHN CASSIDY  John Cassidy is a reputed British-American journalist and popular economic historian who is a staff writer for the New Yorker and a regular contributor to the New York Review of Books.
