SLU presents talk on alternative economics of competition at Hepburn Auditorium in Canton

Posted

CANTON — The Department of Economics Visiting Speaker Series in Political Economy will present Peter Lewin at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 29, in Hepburn Auditorium.

Lewin, a clinical professor of managerial economics at the University of Texas-Dallas, will deliver his presentation, titled “It’s the Entrepreneur, Stupid: The Alternative Economics of Competition and the Firm.”

Lewin will argue that antitrust and some other policies and regulations are based on a model of industrial structure that is at best irrelevant, ignoring the structure of the firm and the role of the entrepreneur. Info: 229-5430 or www.stlawu.edu/economics.
