Sup comrades,
Looking to do a deep dive into current price hikes and inflation with some comrades and looking for resources to explain, critique and solve the problem form a marxist perspective.
The term inflation famously doesn’t really come up explicitly in Marx, only “money devaluation” afaik, but still if you got relevant material/articles/books/whatever on the topic, I’d love to go through them
Cheers
The recent Geopolitical Economy Hour on inflation comes to mind. In terms of written works I’m drawing a blank today. In general it’s also a topic I’m interested in.

Hate that name change…no recall value at all.
But excellent suggestion. Thought about Michael Hudson too when setting up this post, but nothing specific came to mind. This is exactly it. Richard Wolff did quite a few espidodes last years on the topic too now that I’m thinking about it
Thanks comrade!
Yeah what’s up with Ben Norton renaming Multipolarista? The new name sucks, it’s boring and over long and not memorable at all… Really bad branding. Did he not have anyone with some understanding of basic marketing to tell him not to do it? Multipolarista was way more inspired.
I totally agree. I get that Ben Norton wanted to expand the perspective a bit, but Multipolarista was catchy and still covers the gist of his and his guests perspectives.
