Oded Galor on the Journey of Humanity: The Origins of Wealth and Inequality

Penn‘s Exchange: Markets & Cooperation

Apr 26 2022 • 39 mins

Global concerns about comparative economic development, growth, and inequality cannot be adequately assessed without attending to the core foundations that have shaped human history. Today, Oded Galor joins us to discuss his most recent book on this topic: The Journey of Humanity. We talk about why a unified approach to economic growth is needed, why population size, population composition, and technological change matter, and why we can be hopeful about humanity's future.
