Episode details

Money money money. What is money? What is value? How does money fit into global economic systems?  Most of us have a very mystified view of what money really is. Most of us have only a partial understanding. This is nothing something we should be blamed for since even economics textbooks fail to provide an adequate definition. Some don't even bother. Still, if we want to understand the world we live in, if we want to understand our place in the world, if we want to understand how to save the world, we must start with an understanding of money. We must move beyond the confusion and deliberate obfuscation and learn what the true value of money is.   In this video, we reveal a proper definition of what money is, which is a store of your labour time and value. We then take a look at some of the problems associated with money (it is highly addictive, it is easy to accumulate), learn how a handful of people addicted to money are rapidly destroying the world, and provide some suggestions on how we can begin to turn the tide and save the planet.   If you want to know what money is and if you don't want to waste time with people who either do not understand, or who try to mystify the concept and confuse our thinking, watch this video.

Yanis Varoufakis From an Economics without Capitalism to Markets without Capitalism  DiEM25

A lecture organised by University of Tübingen economics students, delivered on Monday February 3, 2020, on the theme "From an Economics without Capitalism to Markets without Capitalism".  Mainstream economic models lack some important features of really-existing capitalism, including money, time and space. Its models offer ideological cover for a capitalist system that has usurped competitive, free markets.   The result? Unbearable inequality, climate catastrophe and permanent stagnation. A fork on the road is approaching: It will take us either into deeper stagnation and environmental degradation or to a society with markets but no capitalism. Prof. Yanis Varoufakis talks about the future of our economy and the current state of economics with special regard to pluralism in economics.

The British Library, Oct 11, 2020

The murder of George Floyd in the US reverberated around the world. It gave way to an explosion of protest, and a closer examination among historians of the systemic racism in the way the African diaspora is described. Cultural institutions around the world are examining their own legacy within the history of colonialism and imperialism. Join historian David Olusoga in conversation with Dr Omar Khan for his personal perspective on how we memorialise, teach and write about racism, and why black British history matters.  Professor David Olusoga is a British-Nigerian historian, broadcaster and BAFTA award-winning presenter and filmmaker. He is Professor of Public History at the University of Manchester and a regular contributor to the Guardian, Observer, New Statesman and BBC History Magazine. The author of several books including Black and British: A Forgotten History and A House Through Time, he was also a contributor to The Oxford Companion to Black British History. In 2019 he was awarded the OBE for services to history and community integration. David's new children's book, Black and British: A Short Essential History has recently been published.  Omar Khan was director of the Runnymede Trust, the UK’s leading race equality thinktank for 6 years, until June 2020, and before that Head of Policy at Runnymede. In this capacity he was involved in helping bring the Windrush injustice to light and was a member of the advisory group of the Windrush Lessons Learned Review, chaired by Wendy Williams. During his tenure as Director, Runnymede produced the award-winning site Our Migration Story (www.ourmigrationstory.org.uk) and consistently argued for the need to teach history more accurately in Britain. He is now Director of the higher education charity TASO, and has written and spoken widely on equality, race and racism in policy, academic and media debates in Britain and internationally.
