The unstoppable march of money explains most of the transformations that have shaped our world over the centuries. Jacques Attali looks back at the roots of capitalism as a world system.
On FRANCE 24, Jacques Attali presents 15 episodes of "Lessons for the Future.” Airing Tuesdays at 6:55pm Paris time, and Mondays at 6:10pm in Arabic, the programme takes the form of three-minute “chapters” that trace 2,000 years of economic history. The programme is inspired by Attali’s best-seller "Lessons for the Future" ("Leçons pour l’avenir", Fayard 2006).
