Karl Polanyi Was Right: How Free Markets Destroy Society |

Описание: What if capitalism was never meant to rule society?
In the 1930s, while the world faced economic collapse, one thinker warned that unchecked free markets would destroy society itself. His name was Karl Polanyi — and his ideas were ignored.
In this documentary-style video, we explore:
Who Karl Polanyi was
Why he believed free markets are not “natural”
His concept of fictitious commodities (labor, land, money)
How capitalism triggered social collapse, fascism, and crisis
Why the 2008 financial crash proved him right
And why his warnings matter more today than ever
From The Great Depression to modern neoliberalism, Polanyi’s ideas explain why economic crises keep repeating — and why society always fights back.
This is not an anti-market argument.
It is a warning about what happens when markets rule people instead of serving them.
