Yanis Varoufakis je grécky ekonóm, dlho pôsobil ako profesor ekonómie na univerzitách v Británii, Austrálii a USA. V roku 2015 bol ministrom financií v prvej vláde Alexisa Tsiprasa. V roku 2016 založil grassrootové hnutie DiEM-25 a v roku 2018 spolu so senátorom Bernie Sandersom medzinárodnú ľavicovú organizáciu Progressive International. Je autorom kníh Dospeláci v miestnosti (Absynt, 2019) a Talking to my daughter: A Brief History of Capitalism.





Budeme sa s ním rozprávať o jeho novej knihe „Another now“. Ako by vyzerala spoločnosť bez finančných trhov, obchodných bánk, korporácií a trhu práce? Varoufakis vo svojej poslednej knihe „Antoher now“ načrtáva obraz spoločnosti po kapitalizme: typ liberálneho socializmu, ktorý sa usiluje o odstránenie nespravodlivosti a prestavbu spoločnosti na skutočnom humanizme. Je „Another now“ socio-ekonomická utópia alebo máme čo dočinenia so skutočne dosiahnuteľným konceptom?



Diskusiu povedú Marek Pavlík a Tomáš Hučko.
