The world is changing fast and open-minded inquiry is needed to face the challenges ahead. The FEEM Lectures are catalysts for discovery in areas engaging the biggest questions in the social, economic, and political sphere. Some of the greatest thinkers and scholars of our time will guide the audience in unchartered territories, providing new ideas, and challenging conventional wisdom.

On December 1, 2008 Andrei Shleifer, from Harvard University, delivered the inaugural FEEM Lecture entitled "Naked Capitalism".

In 2009 FEEM hosted four lectures, delivered by:

• Jean Tirole, Toulouse Shool of Economics, France
• Partha Dasgupta, Cambridge University, UK
• Richard A. Muller, University of California at Berkely, US
• Daron Acemoglu, MIT, US

FEEM Lecures are free and open to the public, but registration is required. For further information or in order to confirm your participation, please write to the Events Office.
