RESOURCE WARS and the Economics of Scarcity with Richard D. Wolff
Water wars, oil wars, even lithium wars — as the climate crisis intensifies and the global population swells, we are often told that our future will be marked by a frightening scramble for natural resources.
“Increased competition over scarce resources is likely to contribute to internal tensions within countries, as well as external tensions between countries,” warned the Pentagon in 2021.
For Episode #8 of The International, renowned economist Richard D. Wolff asks: Is it true? Are we really doomed to a Mad Max–style future of scarcity, competition, and violence? Or is there another way?
