Market capitalism depends on 7 big ideas. Economists like to look scientific, so they tend to present these ideas as laws of nature. But even scientific truth is not this fixed, and the flat-earthers have moved on.

The 7 assumptions that have served the market so well in the past are now toxic to its future. Unless we correct the system at a fundamental level, reform is doomed to fail. But where to start? Come and find out.

All welcome. Followed by Fairtrade refreshments.
