Lace up your gloves for the “Fight of the Century”

We’re excited to announce the debut of our second economics music video, “Fight of the Century” this Thursday, April 28th, right here on EconStories.tv. In this new round between John Maynard Keynes and F. A. Hayek, the two economists battle over government’s role in our economy in terms of both spending and intervention more broadly.

The ideas presented in this new installment of Keynes vs. Hayek represent the clash of philosophy and methodology that has been going back and forth for much more than a century and we expect it to continue for another. We look forward to your comments and feedback and remember that, through it all, Keynes and Hayek remained mutual admirers and friends.

In the meantime, why not enjoy “Fear the Boom and Bust” one more time!

    Please note
    that my book Keynes Hayek: The Clash That Shaped Modern Economics is published
    by W.W.Norton in October.

    Professor
    John B.Taylor of Stanford and the Hoover Institution says that: “Nicholas
    Wapshott brings the Keynes-Hayek fight of the 20th century back to life, making
    the clash both entertaining and highly relevant for understanding economic
    crises of the 21st century.”
