Podden: SystemShift

SystemShift explores how we can create a sustainable, thriving economy that respects the Earth’s capacity to support humankind while putting people and nature at the centre, and provides alternatives to the current failing economic and financial systems that are driving the exploitation of people and planet.  Economists, researchers and innovators from around the world offer their solutions for a sustainable, thriving economy that is equitable and serves the interests of all, not just the wealthiest few.  Each episode delves deep into the root causes of economic dysfunction and explores the latest developments and solutions for people who want to be catalysts for change. From the myth of eternal economic growth to the devastating impact on the natural world of pursuing GDP growth as a policy goal, SystemShift covers it all.  This podcast is a must-listen for anyone interested in the urgent need to transition to a sustainable and equitable economic system that benefits everyone.

    Nicholas Shaxson: Monopoly Money

    Nicholas Shaxson, author and expert on the global economic system, looks at the intricate web of global finance, exploring the unseen forces shaping our economies and societies and exposing the hidden impacts of tax deregulation and monopolistic market practices. From the United Kingdom's economic struggles to the pervasiveness of big tech firms, this episode unveils the hidden mechanisms of monopolistic power, particularly in the energy and financial sectors, and shows how their immense power affects everything from income inequality to climate action. Nicholas sheds light on the profound effects on workers, consumers, and democracy, and the emerging global movement challenging these monopolies as well as the detrimental effects these have on societal wellbeing and long-term growth. As we navigate a world shaped by recent economic shifts, Nicholas explores the complexities of regulatory challenges, offering a pathway towards a more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable economy. Join us in uncovering the intricacies of monopolistic power and learn how addressing these economic forces can pave the way for a wellbeing economy that caters to the needs of society and the planet.
