Commentary: Joint open letter to EU leaders calling for addressing the underlying structural problems of our economic system

Beskrivelse

Thibault Laurentjoye, Assistant Professor at Aalborg University Business School, is one of 180 signatories of an open letter to EU leaders, calling for addressing the underlying structural problems of our economic system. The other signatories include trade unions, civil society organisations, think tanks, and other academics. They state that the current economic crisis is caused by inflation, supply chain disruptions, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine and argue that the European Commission has proposed short-term solutions, which are needed, but they call for them to be complemented by a long-term approach.(Summary provided by Infomedia) Sources: European Trade Union Confederation, 17-10-2022
