The Crisis of Democratic Capitalism (with Martin Wolf)

Martin Wolf, chief economics commentator at the Financial Times, joins Nick and Goldy to discuss his new book, “The Crisis of Democratic Capitalism.” They explore the important-yet-fragile connection between capitalism and democracy, particularly in the context of rising inequality and political instability. Wolf articulates how the perceived success of democratic capitalism has begun to falter under the onslaught of economic policies favoring the wealthy and eroding the middle class. Ultimately, Wolf advocates for stronger social safety nets to ensure that democratic systems, as well as working and middle-class families, can thrive in an era dominated by economic upheaval.
