In-person at 820 Social Sciences Building or virtually via Zoom
June 23, 2025 3:10 PM — 5:00 PM
You’re invited to hear a lecture by Gabriel Zucman, professor of Economics at the Paris School of Economics and Summer School Director of the James M. and Cathleen D. Stone Center on Wealth and Income Inequality at UC Berkeley. Zucman’s research focuses on the accumulation, distribution, and taxation of global wealth and analyzes the macro-distributional implications of globalization.
At this event, learn how century-old tax principles are evolving into tomorrow’s economic policies, gain insight into tax proposals being discussed in major economies, discover the data-driven research behind wealth taxation debates, and be part of a growing global discussion on economic fairness for the 21st century.
