The Lie At The Heart of Economics

Steve Keen
Economics claims to be a science, predicting markets and steering nations. Join economist and author of Debunking Economics, Steve Keen, as he argues the emperor has no clothes. Keen reveals how blind spots regarding private debt and credit creation caused the 2008 crash and will soon cause another, proving neoclassical models are fatally detached from reality. He attacks the discipline at its foundations, arguing that real economies are non-equilibrium systems driven by systemic instability. They are not self-correcting machines.

“No one is more qualified than Steve Keen to answer the question 'Can we avoid another financial crisis?'” – Yanis Varoufakis
