U.S. history, the election and the economy

Wednesday, 23 October, 18.00 – 19.15

In the world's largest economy, a presidential election is approaching. How will Americans vote, and how will their votes impact global trade and the world economy at large? Join us for a two-part lecture evening with author Anders Johnson and Karolina Ekholm, professor of economics and director of the Swedish National Debt Office.

Anders will start by discussing how the U.S. became the world's largest economy and the key differences between the states. Karolina will talk about how the election outcome could affect the U.S. economy and trade policy.

The evening will conclude with a joint Q&A session.

Please note that the lecture will be held in Swedish.

Anders Johnson's book "50 historier om USA" will be available for purchase at the museum.
