The Future of Industrial Policy Panel discussion
Topics
Over the last decade, mainstream neoliberalism hit a dead end and right-wing economic models of libertarianism have surged in popularity in places like the United States under Trump, Argentina under Milei, and Italy under Meloni. At the same time, industrial policy has also experienced a resurgence, both in the Global North (in the European Union and the United States under Biden) as well as in Global South countries like Indonesia.
What are the reasons for this resurgence of industrial policy? How have global institutions adjusted to these changes? Have the rapid shifts in economic policy under Trump undermined the basis for the economic planning necessary under industrial policy?
