Description

I prepared this podcast for three reasons. First, Neoliberal is a cumbersome/dense concept. So I look at Neoliberalism in a way that's easier to understand—Margaret Thatcher’s TINA (‘There is No Alternative’). Second, I describe an alternative to Neoliberalism/TINA/-Progressive Capitalism—an approach advanced by Columbia University professor and Nobel Prize-winning economist, Joseph Stiglitz. Using market and other reforms, PC makes Capitalism work for all people, not just for a few. Finally, PC is relevant in this year’s national election. Elizabeth Warren embraces its tenants (not all candidates do). For those familiar with her work, it’s easy to see why.
