LSE public lecture
Why do we work almost as hard as we did 40 years ago, despite being on average twice as rich? Robert and Edward Skidelsky suggest an escape from the work and consumption treadmill.
This event marks the publication of their new book How Much is Enough? The Economics of the Good Life.
Edward Skidelsky is a moral philosopher at Exeter University.
Robert Skidelsky is Emeritus Professor of Political Economy at the University of Warwick. His three-volume biography of the economist John Maynard Keynes (1983, 1992, 2000) received numerous prizes, and he recently published Keynes: The Return of the Master.
