'Joyless Economies'

Sarah Best

15th May 2019

Here is an interesting video about how modern capitalism is a 'very silly way of organising life'.

The interview with Yanis Varoufakis touches on a number of issues that relate to the contemporary society, including Marxism and ideology.

The video could be used for the Theory and Methods unit.
