In this interview, Mariana Mazzucato talks about economic actions governments need to take facing the Corona-crisis and challenges the concept of economics growth. She illustrates her perspectives on mostly European examples and argues that governmental bailouts need to be bound to the commitment to sustainability. She further stresses the importance of a structured and coordinated action across departments to achieve inclusive and sustainable growth.
