“Marx contra Hayek“ with Anwar Shaikh

Due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, the sessions had to be moved online. The video and audio quality is not always consistent. We apologize for the inconvenience. Anwar Shaikh begins by succinctly providing an illuminating account of the broad contours of economics as a discipline. He examines the limitations and dangers of the neo-classical orthodoxy that plagues the economics discipline to frame the importance of the Marx and Hayek debate. He then systematically lays out some of the fundamental elements of Hayek’s economic theory and traces the development of Hayek’s views on capitalism and socialism as economic systems.
