HARDtalk: Paul Krugman

Paul Krugman

BBC News - HARDtalk, Paul Krugman

Stephen Sackur meets award-winning economist and New York Times columnist Paul Krugman.

Stephen Sackur interviews Nobel Prize-winning economist and New York Times columnist Paul Krugman. Is he addicted to the partisan warfare of US politics he professes to despise?

Now it seems partisanship infects every corner of the realm of ideas, according to Paul Krugman. Stephen Sackur interviews the Nobel Prize-winning economist and New York Times columnist, whose latest book suggests America’s political and economic future is threatened by zombie ideas peddled largely by America’s conservative movement. Has he become addicted to the partisan warfare he professes to despise?
