Pulitzer Prize-winning economics columnist Paul Krugman, who left the New York Times at the end of last year, is teaming up with Martin Wolf of the Financial Times on a podcast.
“The Wolf-Krugman Exchange” is a six-part podcast series exploring the unraveling of the post-World War II economic order and what may emerge in its place.
Wolf and Krugman tackle a range of topics, including China’s geopolitical role in the world order, the impact of artificial intelligence, Europe’s economic future, and more.
“We are living in a moment of global upheaval,” said Wolf in a statement. “The institutions, norms and alliances that underpinned the global economy are being transformed. In these conversations, Paul and I aim to explore where this revolution came from — and what the future might look like.”
The first episode, available here, focuses on the erosion of trust in U.S. political and financial institutions. Episodes will be released weekly through July.
It’s been reported that Krugman left the Times after 25 years because it had ended his newsletter and because of heavy editing.
