economia sin corbata

Since the financial crisis began to hit the world in 2008, the economy has become a central topic of our concerns and conversations. That is why, today more than ever, an "unbuttoned" economy is needed, one that moves away from inaccessible language and gets down to brass tacks to explain such fundamental issues as why wealth and poverty exist, when inequalities were generated, what the relationship between power and money is, or why the debt of some creates the fortune of others. Yanis Varoufakis, the flamboyant Greek Minister of Finance, takes on the responsibility of explaining to future generations, represented by his teenage daughter, where this deep economic and values crisis comes from, which they do not have to accept as a legacy. A book that, thanks to its casual and accessible language, is aimed at all those readers unfamiliar with economic terminology but interested in understanding how some of the mechanisms that govern the global economy work.
