Keeping the Free Market Faith
Jamie Whyte defends free market ideas in what are apparently troubled times for capitalism.
The financial crisis has made many on the political right question their faith in free market capitalism. Jamie Whyte is unaffected by such doubts. The financial crisis, he argues, was caused by too much state interference and an unhealthy collusion between government and corporate power.
Interviewees include:
Matthew Hancock MP, Minister for Skills and co-author of Masters of Nothing.
Luigi Zingales, author of Capitalism for the People: Recapturing the Lost Genius of American Prosperity and a professor at Chicago Booth School of Business.
Producer: Helen Grady.
