Description

Yanis Varoufakis's new book provocatively argues that Capitalism is dead and has been replaced by a new group of wealthy people whom he calls Technofeudalists--Zuckerberg, Musk, etc. This new ruling class, whom he calls the "cloudalists," rules over all of us, and even other capitalists, like feudal lords ruled over vassals.


Bio//
Yanis Varoufakis is an economist, political leader, and the author of numerous bestselling books. He was the finance minister of Greece in 2015. His latest book is "Technofeudalism What Killed Capitalism."
