Join us with Dr. Samir Sonti to discuss how the arrival of inflation during the pandemic has spurred considerable debate over both the causes of rising prices and the optimal means of achieving price stability. In the mid-twentieth century, inflation stood as one of the most contested political issues, and it was one with which the labor movement was, by necessity, deeply engaged.
