Economics need to change - now more than ever! With Exploring Economics, we strengthen alternative economic approaches and counter mainstream economics with a critical and pluralistic vision of economic education. We also provide background analyses on current economic debates to strengthen a critical economic discourse.
Unfortunately, we are running out of money to continue our work.
With a small contribution you can help Exploring Economics to stay online. Thank you!

I this short video, Isabella Weber questions traditional economic views and solutions to inflation. The video challenges the view that inflation is either a temporary phenomenon that requires no intervention or the result of rising output prices. Instead, the video shows how societal expectations in times of crises allow companies to raise prices more than necessary. Thereby, rising profits are an important aspect fuelling inflation.
This video criticises mainstream economic theories on inflation and presents an alternative view in an accessible and nicely illustrated way. People that are already familiar with the concept, can learn more about "Sellers' inflation" here.
