Con sequently\, the question of “bigness” has returned with an urgency unparal leled since the 1910s.\n\nThe question is simply stated: whether extreme l evels of concentrated industrial power are compatible with the promise of widespread economic opportunity\, rough equality among citizens\, or even representative democracy itself?\n\nA century ago\, similar economic condi tion prompted the development of the anti-trust laws. Can and should the l aws be revitalized to meet the challenges of our times?\n\nThe lecture wil l be followed by a cocktail in the atrium.\n\nThe speaker\n\nTim Wu is the author of The Master Switch: The Rise and Fall of Information Empires and of The Attention Merchants: The Epic Scramble to Get Inside Our Heads.
