Episode 5 Unpacking Economics with Steve Keen

In this episode, I chat with renowned heterodox economist Steve Keen about Economics.
We dive into the history of capitalism as a system of organisation, as well as the origins of the theories created to explain it and unearth the assumptions made by early theorists and the problems that these have created in our current system. We also talk about the nature of money, the 2008 financial crisis, how conventional economists understand the climate crisis, and what a realistic economic theory might look like.
