In this episode Gerry and Carmel talk to Mohsen Javdani, an Associate Professor from the Simon Fraser University in Vancouver. Offering a critical lens to the traditional or neoclassical economic approaches, Mohsen reveals the ideological biases which permeate the discourse and how mainstream economics is ill-equipped to address the complex challenges of our societies.

Mohsen has journeyed from mainstream economics to become a researcher and advocate for economic equality, specifically of the labour market and the discrimination of women, migrants and ethnic minorities. His published research has uncovered evident ideological biases among economists who claim to be unbiased and value-free.
