  • Summary

  • This is a journey of exploration into two questions: "How did we break?' and "How do we heal?". These interviews are with guides who can help us explore the terrain we need to explore in order to uncover and develop answers to these two questions.


    Today's guide is the eminent Marxist economist Michael Roberts. Michael worked as an economist for investment banks in the City of London for over 40 years, closely observing the machinations of global capitalism from within the dragon’s den! At the same time, he was a political activist in the labour movement for decades. Since retiring, he has written several books: The Great Recession – a Marxist view (2009); The Long Depression (2016); Marx 200: a review of Marx’s economics (2018): and jointly with Guglielmo Carchedi as editors of World in Crisis (2018). Michael is the author of the invaluable blog, The Next Recession, which you can find here...
