Webinar with Michael Hudson: A 4000-Year Perspective on Economy, Money and Debt
Yves here. Michael Hudson gives a very long sweep of history and his own work in this webinar on Positiva Pengar on how the various debt and monetary regimes from 2400 BC onward have influenced economic development and the distribution of wealth and power. Even though this is a lengthy talk (the Q&A section will be posted tomorrow), it’s less formal than Hudson’s papers and so lends itself to being consumed in more bites. This format also allows Hudson to discuss related issues like the corruption of economics and macroeconomic data, and the dustup between Paul Krugman and Steve Keen.
