Harvard Book Store welcomes QUINN SLOBODIAN, Associate Professor of History at Wellesley College and ACLS Burkhardt Residential Fellow at Harvard University's Weatherhead Initiative on Global History, for a discussion of his latest book, Globalists: The End of Empire and the Birth of Neoliberalism.


“Slobodian’s investigation of how ‘Geneva school’ liberals sought to reinvent global liberalism
so that capitalism could be made safe from democracy is a fundamental recasting of what
modern liberalism is and from whence it came, forcing all of us who theorize on capitalism to
rethink the very object of our study.” —Mark Blyth, Brown University
