so what chicagonomics is about is the history of economics at the university of chicago starting out with some of the early economists such as frank knight and henry simon and then moving on to milton friedman, friedrich hayek who taught for a time at the university of chicago and others. >> host: why is it that they ended up at chicago? >> guest: that's a good question. i think that once there was a nucleus of classical, liberal-oriented economists at the university of chicago, it attracted other economists of a similar perspective there, and so it really became the center of classical liberal economics during the 20th century. >> host: when we talk about classical liberal economics, what are we talking about? >> guest: that's a really -- [inaudible] >> guest: sure, that's a really good question. and one of the things that i try to distinguish in the book is between classical liberalism and contemporary libertarianism. and classical liberalism is the idea that there is a place for government in society and a place for a strong private sector, but in the same way that the private sect

liberal view that there was historically and many of the successors of friedman and hayek at the university of chicago and elsewhere adopted contemporary libertarian views that there is almost no role for government. it isn't that robust advocacy of limited but important role for government. the classical liberal view today is more upheld by econ a musts who would be considered on the left like paul krugman, they really are the true successors of friedman and hayek in the 1950s and contemporary libertarian this are different offshoot. >> you think paul krugman would agree with you? >> guest: i think he might. he wrote a complementary review of friedman after friedman's death and pointed out friedman's contributions to economics were very significant and spoke highly of him, larry summers would be another individual who would come to mind. it is not like in the 1950s, 60s in 70s, you economist on the left advocating socialism, the government should run the economy. friedman in the 1950s thought society should be more equal than it was at that time and society at that time was more equal than it

and he's a proud graduate of the university of texas at austin by the way. but he was for 27 years a staff photographer for the washington post. he won the pulitzer prize for covering three generations of poverty in washington d.c. and also the refugee situation in kosovo. then we also have the question of david valdez. he was george h.w. bush's white house photographer and he has a book of those photographs as well. and then we have dianna walker, who was a time magazine white house photographer for 20 years and she's especially known for her work covering hillary clinton. but she covered the clinton white house really broadly and deeply. she also covered the regan administration and george h.w. bush and david valdez and dianna walker both are actively involved in our program here that briscoe center. >> what do you think viewers will take away after twhauchg interviews? >> the importance of news photographers, documentary photographers, they go by various names. they're all photographers. but the value of their work, not only for the news, illustrating the

last week the house voted by 299 to zero to cause the rollout of universal credit. with the prime minister respect the will of the house? >> as i said before we acknowledge the fact there are concerns of universal credit. we have been listening to those and it changes have been made, but perhaps i could update the house on where we are on the rollout of universal credit. currently, as people claim benefits 8% are on universal credit and by january of next year that will rise to make 10%. of the rollout is conducted in three phases and in the attention it will be completed by 2022. it's being done in a measured way and i'm pleased to say that four out of five people are satisfied or very satisfied with the service they are-- universal credit helps people into the workplace and make sure work pays and that's what the welfare system should do. >> if only 8% of the rollout has taken place and 20% are dissatisfied that they cause for thought, maybe a pause in the whole process and lastly? host: conservative mp has the courage of their convictions to vote with us on suspen
