The most recognisable economist on the planet, Yanis Varoufakis, puts
forth his case to reform an EU that currently fails it weakest citizens.
In this startling account of Europe's
economic rise and catastrophic fall, Varoufakis pinpoints the flaws in
the European Union's design - a design thought up after the Second World
War, and one responsible for Europe's fragmentation and resurgence of
racist extremism.
When the financial crisis
struck in 2008, the political elite's response ensured it would be the
weakest citizens of the weakest nations that paid the price for the
bankers' mistakes.
Drawing on his personal experience of
negotiations with the eurozone's financiers, and offering concrete
policies to reform Europe, the former finance minister of Greece shows
how we concocted this mess and points our way out of it. And The Weak
Suffer What They Must? highlights our history to tell us what we must do
to save European capitalism and democracy from the abyss. With the
future of Europe under intense scrutiny after Brexit, this is the
must-read book to explain Europe's structural flaws and how to fix them.
