Public Lecture on Debt and Taxes in the United States: 1776–2024 with Nobel Laureate in Economics, Thomas J. Sargent. 

Thomas J. Sargent received the Nobel Prize in Economics in 2011 and is regarded as one of the world's foremost scholars, particularly for his fundamental contributions to economic theory and his understanding of macroeconomic dynamics. The Public Lecture will focus on public debt and taxation, starting with how they have manifested in American history (both recent and past), and offering crucial perspectives and reflections on the European economic landscape.

This event offers an exceptional opportunity to deepen our understanding of fundamental economic principles and their practical applications, enriching critical analysis of the current economic context with new perspectives.
