New Economics Institute with Clara Mattei

In this week's episode of Economic Update, Professor Richard Wolff delves into the heroic efforts of California firefighters and their extraordinary work in battling the recent wildfires in Los Angeles. We also explore the progressive transformations occurring within U.S. labor unions and shed light on the escalating housing affordability crisis across the United States.

Additionally, we interview Professor Clara Mattei, Director of the newly established Center for Heterodox Economics in Oklahoma. Professor Mattei shares details about this groundbreaking initiative, outlining its goals, mission, and activities, as well as how it distinguishes itself from mainstream economic approaches.
