DESCRIPTION:Adair Turner's lecture will explore the changing nature of eco
 nomic activity in a world which is simultaneously 'high-tech' and 'hi-touc
 h'\, and will support the need for major policy changes to ensure that cap
 italism can deliver enhanced human welfare.  The tide is meant to raise al
 l boats\, ensuring growth delivers increased human welfare.  And technolog
 ical progress - particularly in information and communication technology -
  continues to surge ahead.  But the assumption  that free markets will del
 iver increased human welfare is challenged by increasing inequality: and t
 echnological progress may exacerbate that trend.\n\nTo book your place vis
