Water privatization. Online discussion with professor Andreas Bieler on June 9th at 18

Finnish water politics has recently seen attempts at water privatization, as well as fierce resistance to it. What can we learn from such attempts in Finland and abroad? What theoretical tools do we have for interpreting the causes and consequences of water privatization?

On Tuesday, June 9th, at 18, Professor Andreas Bieler (Political Economy, University of Nottingham) presents on “Capitalist expansion and the appropriation of nature: the case of water”. After his presentation, participants may ask questions and discuss.
