Скачать или смотреть From Smith to Keynes to MMT

Welcome to a new series on this channel: the history of economic thought.

I’m Richard Murphy, political economist and professor. In this series, I’ll explore how economics has always been shaped by hope and fear, and how different schools of thought—from the classical economists like Adam Smith, Ricardo, and Marx, through to Keynes, Hayek, Friedman, and today’s heterodox thinkers like MMT—have tried to explain (and shape) the world they lived in.

Economics is never neutral. It reflects power, politics, and society. Understanding that helps us make sense of our present crises, and why renewal is always needed.

This is not a dry academic history. It’s a journey through ideas that still shape law, politics, and justice today. Join me to understand why economics matters—and why its stories are always stories of power.

Richard Murphy discusses how economists use economics models to help others understand complex ideas, touching on how the origins of wealth are viewed in neoclassical economics. He explains the role of fear and defense in economic thinking, and how this leads to greater inequality between the rich vs poor, and makes it harder to tax the rich, leaving more people in poverty.
