GM94: When Capitalism Reboots and Crashes Again ft. Mark Blyth
As the long era of neoliberal certainty frays, Mark Blyth argues that we are drifting back toward a 19th century world of rival blocs, imperial habits and dangerous illusions. In this conversation, he traces how repeated “software crashes” of capitalism produced inflation, austerity, populism and now a return to industrial policy and great power confrontation. He connects deficits, demographics, migration, and housing with the lived reality of stagnant wages and rising prices. Along the way, he questions central bank mythology, challenges deficit obsession, and asks whether politics can adapt before events force a far harsher reset.-----

Mark Blyth: The Psychological Impact of Capitalism | #58
Critical Edge hosts Ollie and Lukas sit down with Professor Mark Blyth, an expert in political economy, to unpack how economic ideas shape the world we live in. We explore why being wrong is essential to learning, drawing on Nassim Taleb’s ideas of uncertainty, fragility, and “skin in the game.” From there, the conversation ranges across bubbles (AI, housing, finance), the commodification of time and everyday life, and why economics can’t be treated as a value-free hard science. We dig into inequality, trickle-down economics, wealth and taxation, austerity, and the concentration of power in today...

The Inflation Reduction Act became law. And despite the name, it’s a decarbonization bill, and a better one than Mark ever thought we were going to get.

Author and political economist Mark Blyth visits Google to discuss his book "Austerity: The History of a Dangerous Idea." Politicians in both Europe and the United States have succeeded in casting government spending as reckless wastefulness that makes the economy worse. As a remedy, they have advanced a policy of draconian budget cuts--austerity--to solve the many financial crises of the early 21st century. Pro-austerity voices tell us that we have all lived beyond our means and now need to tighten our belts. But according to author Mark Blyth, this view conveniently forgets where all of that debt...

Scottish Independence with Mark Blyth #FPABriefings
Three hundred years after Acts of Union united the parliaments of England and Scotland Professor Mark Blyth regretfully argues that a separation is almost inevitable. Scots voted to stay in the EU but the votes of their southern neighbors pulled them out. Economically, the failure of London’s economic model to deliver growth to the rest of the UK and the record of the government are pushing Scotland out of the UK. Blyth points to the overwhelming and growing support of younger voters for independence who have been left by years of austerity with little to lose from...

Economics Rife with Anger | Featuring Mark Blyth
Mark Blyth is William R. Rhodes Professor of International Economics at Brown University. In this interview, he discusses how our economics are rife with anger and frustration. Blyth's "angry-nomics" emerged from financial crises and a decline in social institutions, like unions, that give people feelings of stability and control. In this frank discussion of the conflicts between our economics and politics, Blyth offers several concrete recommendations to get capitalism to work for democracy instead of against it.

As an idea, austerity’s power lies in its simplicity; a balanced budget leads to economic growth. On an intuitive level it makes sense; unless you’re wealthy, you’ve undoubtedly worried about your household budget. There’s just one problem: austerity doesn’t work. In fact, it makes everything worse. In order to understand why, Professor Mark Blyth from Brown University joins us to explain the origins of austerity, the danger it represents, and why politicians across the globe continue to try to implement it regardless of its harmful effects.
