Chapter 2: The nine 'hearts' of capitalism
Throughout history, the different forms of capitalism have expanded on the same basic principles of competition and the language of money, developing the most sophisticated societies the world has known so far.
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).
