Bridging Theory and Reality

This chapter explores the disconnect between economic theory and the lived experiences of marginalized individuals, advocating for a humanitarian response to societal issues like homelessness and poverty. It critiques neoliberal policies while delving into how historical ideologies shape public perception of achievement and government intervention. The authors emphasize the need for innovative communication strategies to make complex economic concepts, particularly Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), accessible and engaging to a wider audience.
