Technological Change, Objectivism, and a ‘new’ Economics

Very interesting programme on BBC2 tonight, All Watched Over By Machines of Loving Grace, charting the rise of the teachings of Ayn Rand alongside rapid technological development and their impact on the global economic and political landscape. Much to be debated, not least whether the limitations of a one-hour programme trivialises the subject-matter; especially useful for PPE candidates.
