In this episode of The Econoclasts, Yanis Varoufakis and Wolfgang Munchau dissect the escalating geopolitical tensions between Western powers, Russia, and China, expose the dangerous anti-diplomacy bias within mainstream media and centrist political establishments that pushes Europe toward a pre-war posture, and debunk the political myth that military Keynesianism and factory-focused reindustrialization can restore high-paying blue-collar jobs in an automated age.
