Part 3 of SPIA in NJ's Fall 2024 series, New Jersey and the American Economy: What’s Needed for the Garden State to Lead a Thriving Country:
As big ideas like basic income and reparations evolve and advance, how do we think about them in a broader and holistic understanding of our economy that meets the tangible needs of our communities? The economy, after all, is people. This conversation will explore the idea of an economics that promotes human rights, justice, and love as explicit goals when policymakers design and implement public policy. What does that mean at the local level and the national level, and how can New Jersey lead in this vein?
