\n

In this interview with Professor of Economics Emeritus (University of Massachusetts), Marxist economist and founder of Democracy at Work, Richard D. Wolff,\u00a0 we talk to him about Marxism, global economy, corporations, alternatives & solutions.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • What is Marxism? And why is it associated with Soviet style communism, Stalinism or Maoism?<\/li>\n
  • Why is the financial sector booming and posting record numbers on stock markets while on the hand banks are faltering, worker’s unrest is rising and economic turmoil keeps making headlines?<\/li>\n
  • Does the pathology and internal structure of corporations have an adverse impact on democracy, environment and humane practice?<\/li>\n
  • Are there alternative business models that take democracy, environmental sustainability and humane practice into account?<\/li>\n
  • Should people focus more on changing their consumption habits (organic, fair-trade, separating thrash, etc.) or should they divert their energies towards reforming production?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    All of this and more is addressed in the video below:<\/p>\n
