On 14 May Peter Hall and Michael Edwards had an open debate at UCL, discussing the current crisis and especially the kinds of insights offered by Schumpeter and Marx. There was a good discussion among about 20 people and it was resolved to have further sessions this summer and/or autumn. Please let us know if you would like to join in and/or if there are topics or speakers we should include. Here is a short paper by Peter Hall (reprinted from Town and Country Planning) hallcrisis0905141, a short note from Michael Edwards edwards090514 and an adequate but not very professional podcast (1 hour 33; 32MB) Recording of the seminar
