Fabian Scheidler, author of The End of the Megamachine: A Brief History of a Failing Civilization, speaks with Prof Wolff about the growing resistance to capitalism and the historical moment of decline we are living through.
"Even capitalism cannot be eternal, and there are many signs which could show that we are already in a transition phase. And of course in a transition phase ,the system becomes chaotic, and in the chaotic system, social movements can play a huge part, because the system will flip to one side or another side." - Fabian Scheidler
This is a clip from S12 E03 of Economic Update: "The End of the Megamachine"
