ESOP lecture: Profit-sharing and Workers Ownership ¨C the new economy?

Hi guys,

Probably some of you may be interested in the ESOP lecture by the Harvard economist Richard Freeman next week, on the consequences of workers ownership, i.e. when employees own (part of) the company they work for (for example in form of stocks).

Already by reading the description (link below), you can notice how the lecture relates to our ECON4240  discussion on how a correct allocation of property rights can alleviate the moral hazard problem.
