Excuse my dark irony but we have heard so much recently about Western civilization’s enlightened attachment to their ancient traditions and culture and especially freedom and liberty…

MUST WATCH: Short but deep critical comments on economics
Posted: 2015/02/19 by Punkonomics (@dearbalak) in Links/Articles/VideoTags: capitalism, economics, history of thought, methodology, philosophy of economics, Yanis Varoufakis
I’ve been a huge fan for many years now. He’s a public intellectual par excellence; a rare thing in our dismal science.
The interview was made during the time Yanis Varoufakis was visiting Zagreb as participant of the 6th Subversive festival “Utopia of Democracy” (4-18th May 2013). Interviewed by: Martin Beroš
You can find other recordings of talks by Varoufakis from the 2013 Zagreb visit here:
- keynote “Confessions of an Erratic Marxist”: http://youtu.be/A3uNIgDmqwI
- Roundtable “Utopia of the EU” with Susan George and Franco Beradi Bifo: http://youtu.be/ZAYK9cMiSbE
- Book promotion “The Global Minotaur: America, Europe and the Future of the Global Economy”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEUWx…

This should be of interest to anybody involved with the public school system (that would be everybody). The Opt Out movement combines 2 of our favorite things: concern about education and civil disobedience.
My son Felix joined us as well and Kayla Myers called in and agitated everybody to take direct action!
