VINTAGE MINIS- GREAT MINDS. BIG IDEAS. LITTLE BOOKS.

How do we choose between what is fair and just, and what our debtors demand of us? Yanis Varoufakis was put in such a dilemma in 2015 when he became the finance minister of Greece. In this rousing book, he charts the absurdities that underpin calls for austerity, as well as his own battles with a bureaucracy bent on ignoring the human cost of its every action. Passionately outspoken and tuned to the voices of the oppressed, Varoufakis presents a guide to modern economics, and its threat to democracy, like no other.

As Minister of Finance in a Greek government saw at first hand the brutal effects of Austerity on people. The austerity program devised by the EU and IMF was straight out of the Neoliberal playbook: insistence on repaying the Greek national debt; increased taxation and reductions in government spending and pension payments failed in their aim but imposed hard times on the Greek people. In COVID times such policies are nonsensical. The big question is what happens next.
