Lecture Series on the Future of the Transatlantic Relationship
First Event: The Global Economy of the Transatlantic Relationship
Prof. Philipp Richter, Technical University Dresden
Our first public lecture focuses on the economy of the transatlantic relationship.
Economic relations have been put under strain in recent years. Both rhetorically as well as physically, there was more disintegration than integration. So, where do we stand one year into the new decade—a decade that began with a shock of truly historical dimension—a global pandemic?
We could not be more delighted to have such a well-versed expert for this matter, Prof. Philipp Richter from Technical University Dresden, Germany. He will elaborate on economic shocks and their implications for the economies in the transatlantic sphere.
The lecture series on the Future of Transatlantic Relations is part of our annual Ohio-Leipzig Transatlantic Student Summit.
