  Welcome to the LSE Events podcast by the London School of Economics and Political Science.

• 00:07

  Get ready to hear from some of the most influential international figures in the social sciences.

• 00:15

  All right, well, let's go ahead and get started.

• 00:19

  Good evening, everyone, and also good evening to the people joining us online.

• 00:24

  Welcome to LSE.

• 00:25

  My name is Eric Schneider, and I'm a professor in the Economic History Department.

• 00:30

  Before I introduce our speakers,

• 00:31

  I just want to go over a few rules of the game for how this lecture is going to go.

• 00:36

  So the first thing to point out, as I just said, this is a hybrid event.

• 00:39

  So we have people online as well.

• 00:41

  So keep that in mind when you're asking questions.

• 00:43

  The lecture will also be recorded and made available online.

• 00:47

  So people will know what you've asked in 200 years.

• 00:51

  So just keep that in mind.

• 00:54

  If you want to post about this event on Twitter or X or whatever it's called,

• 00:59

  you can use the hashtag LSE events.

• 01:03

  And can I please ask everyone to silence your phones so that we're not interrupted?

• 01:08

  So the way this is going to work is that I'll introduce our speakers.

• 01:12

  And then Michael and John are going to introduce the book.

• 01:16

  And we have Judy Stevenson, who will give a kind of rebuttal.
