from the bronx at vote in britain a victory for real people to the election of donald trump. will govern our land. people around the world rebelling against the law. and increasingly turning to the political extremes so what lies behind the recent rise in populism and authoritarianism. my guest tonight is an economist who blames the political establishment in her new book edge of chaos why democracy is failing to deliver economic growth and how to fix it she believes democracy is in crisis and has some pretty controversial suggestions for how to say i'm in the house and i've come to the oxford union to go head to head with economist and best selling
4:54 am
author dambisa moyo why she seems to blame democracy for economic growth and whether her plan to save democracy by giving some voters more power and influence than others could end up killing it instead. i'll be joined by pedophile author of the production of money and one of only a handful of economists who correctly predicted the financial crisis jamie whyte director of research at the institute of economic affairs. and they form a new zealand politician and philosophy electra and jason pickel and i'm for apologist at the london school of economics and author of the divide a brief guide to global inequality and its solution. maybe the gentleman please welcome dambisa moyo. business first book get
4:55 am
a hold of the way you. would you rather than helping your neighbor that the poorer he's a former goldman sachs banker. more welcome to you one of the central premises of your book is that the popular discontent that we see across the west right now for example the brics vote the election of donald trump the rise of populist parties is driven by the failure of governments to deliver economic growth yet many experts pollsters people who've studied this stuff would say bricks it wasn't driven by economics trump wasn't elected by the poor or the left behind it's a complete myth that had much more to do with culture and identity issues which you don't really address and well i don't carry on with my doctorate that i completed here at oxford you know a while ago in economics and so i think very much see these issues a challenge through that lens i'm not dismissing that there might be other and you know aspects and i'll leave that to people who are focused on those areas to to
4:56 am
make the case for that i am concerned about the economics and we do know that real wages have come down virtually every developed country over the past thirty years social mobility has declined the income inequality has widened and so the threat of a lack of participation in the neighborhood is that people be simply given up on and work all these aspects have created and give them things like trump and bricks it. get that that's your prism and that's your specialism doesn't make it correct the majority of americans earning less than fifty thousand dollars a year voted for hillary clinton not donald trump when my daughter's in the rust belt states who said the economy is the most important issue for the country went with hillary on bricks in income class were not predictors of vote in fact views of multiculturalism of feminism the death penalty was actually a greater predictor of people's views on break so let me let me clarify a couple of things so first of all you know a lot of what you've just said certainly culture issues around immigration which have been basically. sort of put forward as the main argument for breakfast and for
4:57 am
. the rise of trump and populism more generally across europe to me are masking a more fundamental problem which still has its roots in economics if people feel that their lives are improving their future generations lives are improving i would argue that we would see much more stability we have seen much more stability in those periods a good job than donald trump also one of the last from rich people the need to hold on people hold on the wall now if you hold it i'll give you a juggalo i'll give you a start of a wages i'll give you a statistic that illustrates the story as you were aware the the general high level numbers that hillary won the popular vote by three million if you take out the new york i'm not about the state just the metropolitan city of new york and if you take out the metropolitan city of los angeles not california donald trump won the vote by over three million votes that is how split this country is people in new york city and in los angeles are essentially very liberal tend to be much more wealthy and tend to be deriving their welfare and in terms of their living standards from a global society and unlike you perhaps i take the view is no point in me making
