Is capitalism fuelling today’s wars?

Varsha Gandikota-Nellutla asks political economist Jason Hickel about the potential for Global South states to reclaim their sovereignty. Hickel, author of 'Less is More' and 'The Divide', discusses whether today's conflicts are a continuation of centuries of colonialism and economic policies that favor the wealthiest nations. He advocates for systemic economic change and the concept of 'degrowth' to mitigate environmental harm.
