Using Surplus for Social Infrastructure

David Harvey is a legendary Marxist geographer. He’s taught Marx for over half a century – maybe you’ve even been one of his millions of students.

He’s the author of the new The Story of Capital as well as many others, such as the classic The Limits to Capital.

Talking from his home town of New York City, he told Richard Hames what he’s learned from decades of studying the most important radical in history, why contradictions appear everywhere in our lives, and what he really thinks of his new mayor.

Do Your Own Research is a new show about the systems that make the modern world possible.
