About this event

  • 1 hour 30 minutes

In his ground-breaking book, Rowan Moore explores the origins and power of the property myth, addressing the way it has inspired, enriched, impoverished and divided people - a "concept that runs through Western democracy like steel through reinforced concrete". He also considers the possibilities for a society not dominated by the property fixation. Come and join Rowan for a discussion on an issue that continues to shape political, economic and social thought.
