London Thinks - Will We Crash Again? Why Capitalism Needs Debt Write-offs to Survive.
Mainstream economists failed to anticipate the great financial crash of 2007-8. In this talk, Professor Steve Keen, will share his view on the bigger picture - including recent financial developments around the world. He will review options for the future of economics, highlight the little-understood importance of debt, and argue that significant debt write-downs are needed in order to limit future financial crashes.
Steve Keen is a Professor of Economics & Head of the School of Economics, History & Politics at Kingston University. He was one of the handful of economists to realise that a serious economic crisis was imminent, and to publicly warn of it, from as early as December 2005.
