DESCRIPTION:“Wolff offers a rich and much needed corrective to the views of 
 mainstream economists and pundits. It would be difficult to come away from 
 this with… anything but an acute appreciation of what is needed to get us 
 out of this mess” — Stanley Aronowitz\n\nCapitalism Hits the Fan 
 differs sharply from most other explanations by politicians, media 
 commentators, and academics. Step by step, Wolff shows that deep economic 
 structures… account for the crisis. Government bailout interventions have 
 thrown too little money too late at a problem that requires more than money 
 to solve… we must now ask basic questions about capitalism as a system 
 that has now convulsed the world economy into two great depressions in 75 
 years (and countless lesser crises, recessions, and cycles in between).    
 \n\n“Richard Wolff has produced something I thought was impossible. He 
 has shown in its entirety the model of today's global economy in a 
 methodical and coherent way. While the facts mentioned are well known the 
 perfect continuity and conclusions are as unbelievable as they are 
 unarguable.”\n\nRichard Wolff is Professor of Economics Emeritus at the 
 University of Massachusetts in Amherst and currently a Visiting Professor 
 at the Graduate Program in International Affairs of the New School 
 University in New York.  He has a PhD in Economics from Yale University as 
 well as degrees from Harvard University (history BA) and Stanford 
 University (economics MA). Wolff has authored or co-authored 10 books, over 
 50 scholarly articles and 75 popular articles.  >rdwolff.com<\n\nThe recent 
 documentary based on Capitalism Hits the Fan has been called “an 
 electrifying explanation of how the American Dream evolved into the 
 ‘Nightmare on Wall Street.’”\n\n$12 advance tickets:
