Ha Joon Chang on why Economics is for everyone!

Here is a superb new video from RSA animate featuring Cambridge economist Ha Joon Chang. This will be excellent to show to new economists when school and college gets back after the summer!

‘Economics is for everyone’, argues legendary economist Ha-Joon Chang in our latest mind-blowing RSA Animate. This is the video economists don’t want you to see! Chang explains why every single person can and SHOULD get their head around basic economics. He pulls back the curtain on the often mystifying language of derivatives and quantitive easing, and explains how easily economic myths and assumptions become gospel. Arm yourself with some facts, and get involved in discussions about the fundamentals that underpin our day-to-day lives.
