"[We] can handle a decline. We're a rich country. But you have to be ready to admit it in order to solve it. We are a declining economic power and that either gets faced and managed in a humane way or it drives us crazy into political and moral dead ends."
This is the trailer for "Economic Update: What Capitalism's Decline Means," in which Prof Wolff explores the passage of US capitalism from its birth, through its state-supported growth and expansion, to its global peaking from 1945 to 2000. He presents the causes of its ongoing decline this 21st century, and then offers a conclusion on the right, center and left political responses to decline.
