Cher.e.s tou.te.s,La prochaine séance du séminaire "Capitalisme et inégalités aux États-Unis" aura lieu ce jeudi 19 mai à l'EHESS en salle 12 (105, bd Raspail) de 17h30 à 19h30.Nous recevons cette semaine Linda Weiss (University of Sidney), pour une communication intitulée :« The US’s exceptional power at a crossroad »Résumé de la communication :Since WWII, the United States has created the most formidable innovation engine the world has ever seen. Although difficult to quantify, its benefits for the commercial economy have been enormous. America’s rise as high-tech hegemon is not a free market story, nor is it an industrial policy tale. Rather, it is the product of a national security state (NSS) that has pursued technological supremacy as a strategic imperative essential to sustaining U.S. power. This NSS creation, however, is now threatened by financialization of the U.S. economy, manifested in the growing disconnect between innovation and production, declining private investment in productive assets, and rapidly rising inequality. To this extent, the main threat to U.S. preeminence would appear to come not from a rising power such as China, but from within.En espérant vous voir nombreux,Alexia Blin, Romain Huret, Gabriel Lattanzio, Jean-Christian Vinelhttp://cena.ehess.fr/index.php?586NB: La séance du 26 mai est annulée, la prochaine séance du séminaire aura lieu le 23 juin.Alexia BLINDoctorante EHESS - CENA-Mondes AméricainsHistoire des coopératives 1870s-1930sATER à l'Université Lyon 2Département d'études du monde anglophone de Lyon 2
