A public presentation by Michael Munger, Professor of Political Science, Economics, and Public Policy at Duke University.

Professor Munger will argue that there have been two enormous “revolutions” in human history. The first was the Neolithic revolution, or the wide scale switch from a nomadic hunter-gatherer lifestyle to fixed agriculture. The second was the industrial revolution, or the wide scale concentration of production in processes that took advantage of the division of labour and capital-intensive work. Michael Munger thinks that the sharing economy is the start of a third great revolution, and he\'ll explain how he thinks it will shape our future.
