SUMMARY:GIMMS Labour Fringe Event
DESCRIPTION:Do you have concerns about the climate crisis and what it means for the future of our planet and the health of our children and grandchildren? If you’ve heard about the Green New Deal and want to know more come along to our event with the world renowned economist Bill Mitchell. He’ll be debunking myths around government finances and how money works\, explaining what the Job Guarantee is and how a Green New Deal can be paid for. \nThe event is aimed at challenging our preconceptions of how money works and examining how such an understanding offers a lens through which solutions can be shaped to address the pressing economic\, social and ecological issues we face and enable the vital shift of the global economy onto a Green pathway that leaves no-one behind. \nProfessor Mitchell is a founding proponent of Modern Monetary Theory and co-author of the recently published textbook Macroeconomics. He will also be joined by Chris Williamson who is an MMT and Job Guarantee advocate. \nAll are welcome Labour members or not.

SUMMARY:Local Government Funding: Challenging the Status Quo
DESCRIPTION:Professor Bill Mitchell\, who is on a promotional tour for his new book ‘Macroeconomics’ will address a number of key issues\, including: \n– The myopic nature of austerity – it ends up costing more in the long term.\n– Why the British government faces no financial constraints and is unlike a household or local government.\n– Why first-class provision of public services only depends on the availability of real resources.\n– The policy options available to our currency issuing sovereign government that can be used within real resources constraints\, to help local government finances.\n– How localised unemployment\, underemployment\, insecure employment and low-paid employment can be tackled through a central government funded policy such as a Job Guarantee Scheme.

SUMMARY:Bill Mitchell to launch 'Macroeconomics' textbook in London
DESCRIPTION:GIMMS is delighted to be co-hosting with Macmillian International Higher Education an evening with the internationally respected author Bill Mitchell to launch the publication of ‘Macroeconomics’. \n \nThis groundbreaking new core textbook will allow the reader to take a more critical approach to the prevalent assumptions around the subject of macroeconomics\, by comparing and contrasting heterodox and orthodox approaches to theory and policy. The first such textbook to develop a heterodox model from the ground up\, it is based on the principles of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) as derived from the theories of Keynes\, Kalecki\, Veblen\, Marx\, and Minsky\, amongst others. Placing a focus on the realities of how money and banks operate\, and on applied theories of financial instability\, this text gives an unrivalled real-world insight into how the economy actually works. \nPlease join us in celebrating the launch of this text and take the opportunity to hear Bill’s own insights as to what the book sets out to achieve! \n*** Bill Mitchell will be speaking at 1730*** \nSpaces for this event are limited\, so please register to reserve your place at https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/official-launch-of-macroeconomics-tickets-56695101575 \nRegistration is essential
