Le franc CFA est une monnaie utilisée dans 14 pays d'Afrique sub-saharienne. Créé par la France en 1945, c'est la seule monnaie coloniale encore en circulation dans le monde. Une exception qui a des répercussions bien réelles sur les économies de ces pays africains. Entre limitation des capacités d'investissement et immobilisme des élites, certains économistes et historiens défendent l'idée qu'il est temps de sortir de cette "servitude monétaire".

The COVID-19 Debt Deluge
How long the COVID-19 crisis will last, and what its immediate economic costs will be, is anyone's guess. But even if the pandemic's economic impact is contained, it may have already set the stage for a debt meltdown long in the making, starting in many of the Asian emerging and developing economies on the front lines of the outbreak.

Sellers’ Inflation, Profits and Conflict: Why can Large Firms Hike Prices in an Emergency?
The dominant view of inflation holds that it is macroeconomic in origin and must always be tackled with macroeconomic tightening. In contrast, we argue that the US COVID-19 inflation is predominantly a sellers’ inflation that derives from microeconomic origins, namely the ability of firms with market power to hike prices.

Le Salaire à Vie (Bernard Friot)
Alors que l'idée d'un revenu de base commence à faire son chemin, et si on en profitait pour essayer d'aller encore plus loin dans la critique du marché du travail? Et si on essayait carrément de penser contre le capitalisme? D'ailleurs, si on sortait du capitalisme, on mettrait quoi à la place?
