Economics Is For Everyone!
The RSA, 2016
This video animates part of the talk “On Economics” by Ha-Joon Chang in which he states that economics is not a science for experts but for everyone. Chang further argues why it is important to take into account different perspectives on economics – he identifies at least nine school of thoughts which all have their strengths and weaknesses and presents examples on free trade and well-being. Chang further elaborates on the difficulties of changing the economic status quo.
Comment from our editors:
This talk has already become a classic and is a great introduction to the importance of pluralism in Economics. Find an extended version here.
