Europe After the Minotaur — Surplus, Austerity, and Structural Failure (Audio)

Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.This episode explores Europe After the Minotaur by Yanis Varoufakis as a systems-level analysis of how global capitalism lost its stabilizing mechanism — and why Europe has struggled ever since.By focusing on structural design rather than national blame, the book explains how surplus imbalances, financialization, and austerity policies reinforce long-term stagnation and political fragmentation across the Eurozone.📺 Watch the Deep Dive and Mini Explainer on YouTube:👉 https://youtu.be/utKLqAEUR3E❤️ Support Crisis in Perception on Patreon:👉 https://patreon.com/CrisisInPerceptionAuthor Support LineIf these ideas resonate, consider reading the book yourself or borrowing it from your local library.
