Description

We asked: 

  • What can we learn from the response to the Spanish Flu?
  • Are we going back to the inflation of the 1970s?
  • How does the Technological Revolution compare to the Industrial Revolution?
  • Are central banks and governments pursuing MMT?
  • What happened to the Bond Vigilantes?


Philip Coggan writes the Bartleby column in the Economist. He started a life in journalism when they used typewriters. He has experienced seismic change in journalism, and his latest book, “More: The 10,000-Year Rise of the World Economy” provides a wide historical perspective with which to reflect on the current economic challenges
