The Paris School of Economics is pleased to invite you to the third lecture of "The Offshore Talks" organised by the EU Tax Observatory.

speaker : Brooke Harrington

The Offshore Talks is a lecture series by the EU Tax Observatory designed to spark interdisciplinary dialogue and collaboration on the intricate topics of tax avoidance, tax evasion, and illicit financial flows.

The third lecture features Brooke Harrington, the author of the book Offshore: Stealth Wealth and the New Colonialism.

In her latest book, economic sociologist Brooke Harrington exposes how the shadowy global system of offshore finance fuels economic crises and austerity while also undermining democracy and the rule of law. As politicians struggle to address the deepening economic and political inequality destabilizing the world, Harrington’s exposé of the offshore system is a vital resource for understanding the most pressing crises of our time.
