Uncovering Flaws in Modern Political Economy | Book Discussion with Lord Meghnad Desai 📘

Lord Meghnad Desai's new book, "The Poverty of Political Economy," is a critical analysis of the current state of political economy and its failure to address issues of poverty and inequality. Desai argues that mainstream economic theory and its emphasis on market efficiency and individualism has failed to provide solutions to persistent poverty and inequality. Instead, he proposes a new approach to political economy that recognizes the importance of social and political factors, such as power dynamics and institutional structures, in shaping economic outcomes. Through a combination of theoretical insights and case studies, Desai offers a compelling critique of conventional economic thinking and a roadmap for a more inclusive and just economic system.
