I Read Kamala Harris’ Dad’s Book

Donald Harris, an economist known for his work in Marxian and post-Keynesian economics, discusses his nuanced views on economic theories. The conversation delves into his alignment with post-Keynesian ideas over traditional Marxism and tackles the Cambridge Capital Controversy. They explore the evolution of economic thought, examining class dynamics and state intervention in crises. Harris's theories are critiqued for their minimal focus on class struggles, reflecting on the disconnect between radical principles and modern policy discussions.
