Stolen — Financialisation, Debt, and the Illusion of Economic Growth (Audio)

Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.

This episode explores Stolen: How to Save the World from Financialisation by Grace Blakeley — an examination of how economic systems shifted from productive growth toward debt-driven instability and rent extraction.
