Listen "Ep.7 - Federico Caffè and the Ghosts of Keynes"
Episode Synopsis
30th of October 1998, the Court of Rome officially declares the presumed death of Federico Caffè – the economist who disappeared without a trace one morning in April 1987. Professor of Economic and Financial Policies at the University of Rome, uncompromising Keynesian. Caffé literally vanished after his school of thought was defeated by the Conservative revolution of Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher. Thirty-seven years later, many things have changed. The State is once again guiding the economy through the many systemic crises of our time – from the pandemic to wars. The ghosts of John Maynard Keynes have returned to the West, but the meaning of these apparitions is still unclear.
