Dancing with Change
Dancing with change is a podcast that seeks to understand how we can create systemic change in society, on one hand exploring the current dominant system we are in and the ways in which we can accelerate its decline, and on the other hand exploring visions of the future and how we can find our role in bringing into being. We can't control systems, but we can try to understand them and do our best to influence them.

Episode 5
In this episode, I chat with renowned heterodox economist Steve Keen about Economics.
We dive into the history of capitalism as a system of organisation, as well as the origins of the theories created to explain it and unearth the assumptions made by early theorists and the problems that these have created in our current system. We also talk about the nature of money, the 2008 financial crisis, how conventional economists understand the climate crisis, and what a realistic economic theory might look like.
