This is the complete text of the talk, Understanding and Responding to the Global Economic Crisis that I gave in Thessaloniki, Greece at the A-fest, Festival of Anti-Authoritarians on Wednesday, Sept 8th, 2010. In this talk I explain the causes and impact of the global economic crisis. I strongly criticize the austerity policies imposed on Greece by the IMF and European Union and propose that Greece consider leaving the European Union and repudiating its foreign debt, and in the longer-run the need for a radical transformation of the Greek economy and society.
Hi Peter, Good to see you still fighting the good fight. All good wishes to you and the family from an old friend in Hampton Gardens. I still think of Josina and Inti a lot.
I remember you well. Good to hear from you. Where are you? My email is peterbohmer@yahoo.com
Send me a note about what you are up to and I will respond, Peter
