With wicked humour and stories from his professional journey, LSE and World Bank veteran Dimis Michaelides highlights the contributions and contradictions of economists from the 18th century to today. How does breakfast get to your table? Who creates value? Capitalism: savage or tame? How do we justify inequalities? Why did students occupy the LSE? What was special about a loan to Colombia? Are economists rational? Why do they forget women? Economics is often revered as nebulous or simplified into populist pseudo-science. This show promises to explore the nebulae and expose the pretenders.
