Richard D. Wolff and Michael Hudson on Where Is the US Economy Headed?

Richard Wolff and Michael Hudson on Dialogue Works

Dialogue Works brings together Richard Wolff and Michael Hudson to explore the complexities of economic theory, focusing on labor value, economic rent, and the foundations of industrial capitalism. The discussion traces the evolution of economic systems from classical theory to modern policies, exposing contradictions in the U.S. approach under the Trump administration. The conversation critiques the erosion of industrial capitalism, the expansion of economic rent through privatization, and the widening gap between economic philosophy and policy implementation. Through historical analysis and a Marxist framework, the discussion challenges mainstream economic narratives and unpacks the deeper structural forces shaping today's economic landscape.
