As well as welcoming Jan Lucassen to talk about his book The Story of Work, and Philipp Ager, who delivered the 2022 Epstein Lecture, we also ran a very successful event: Do Financial Sanctions Work? Lessons from History. Chaired by Mary Morgan, panellists Olivier Accominotti and Albrecht Ritschl discussed how economic sanctions have been used in the past, for what purpose and with what success.
