David Harvey is one of the world's most influential social scientists. His
many books include The New Imperialism; Paris, Capital of Modernity; Social
Justice and the City; Limits to Capital; The Urbanization of Capital; The
Condition of Postmodernity; Justice, Nature, and the Geography of
Difference; Spaces of Hope; Spaces of Capital: Towards a Critical
Geography, A Brief History of Neoliberalism and The Enigma of Capital.
His work also contributes to broader social and political debate; he is a
leading proponent of the idea of 'The Right to the City', and in recent
years has become a internationally recognised public intellectual in part
due to the success of his very popular online lectures on Marx's Capital
and engaging public lectures. We are delighted to welcome you all to this
very special event.
A wine reception will follow the lecture.
