Heterodox Economists, Part 1: Michal Kalecki

This is the first episode in a miniseries on heterodox economists—people who embrace completely different approaches to economics than the standard thinkers. Adam and Cameron begin with Michal Kalecki, a Polish economist born in the late 19th century who believed that capitalism was not the solution to the human condition but the problem itself. Listen until the end to hear Adam’s message from the ICU after his open-heart surgery. Brought to you by: betterhelp.com/onestooze acorns.com/ones Learn more about your ad choices.
