The solution of everything: Erik Reinert at TEDxArendal

Finance crisis, massive youth unemployment, unfair distribution of wealth in the world and all this topped with Climate crisis. Is there a way forward?


Erik S. Reinert, one of the worlds great economic thinkers (the worldly philosophers) challenging standard thinking and give inspiring thoughts on the way forward. Erik S.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
