TALKING POLITICS

Dani Rodrik

We're joined by one of the world's leading economists Dani Rodrik to talk about globalisation, Trump and Brexit.  Who are the real winners and losers from the integration of the global economy?  What chance has Trump got of making good on his economic promises?  How much are economists to blame for the mess we're in?  Dani talks with David, Helen Thompson and Finbarr Livesey about the dangers of circling the wagons and the tough choices we all have to face.

Coronavirus! Climate! Brexit! Trump! Politics has never been more unpredictable, more alarming or more interesting: Talking Politics is the podcast that tries to make sense of it all. Every week David Runciman and Helen Thompson talk to the most interesting people around about the ideas and events that shape our world: from history to economics, from philosophy to fiction. What does the future hold? Can democracy survive? How crazy will it get? This is the political conversation that matters. Talking Politics is brought to you in partnership with the London Review of Books, Europe's leading magazine of books and ideas.
