Economist Branko Milanovic joins Weekends to discuss the public's declining faith in capitalism, whether viable alternatives exist, how the system generates inequality, and whether social democracy can still play a role in ameliorating it. Weekends features free-flowing and humorous commentary on current events and political strategy. This is the podcast version of the show from August 20, 2021.
