Tariffs are making the headlines, but what do they really mean for the economy, workers, and global trade? Are they a tool for protection or a path to higher prices? How have they shaped economic history, and what role do they play in today’s financial and macroeconomic landscape?
Join us for a popup teach-in on tariffs where Bard expert panelists in trade policy, finance, and macroeconomics will break down the impacts, controversies, and future of tariffs. After short presentations, bring your questions for a lively discussion. Don’t miss this chance to cut through the noise and understand one of the most debated policy tools in today’s economy. See you there!
