The Price of Independence

Business Daily

Available for over a year

Catalonia is pushing for independence, but at what cost to the economy? We hear from businesses in Barcelona worried about the economic impact of political instability, and Rafael Hortala-Vallve from the London School of Economics discusses the wider impact on Europe. Also on the programme: Is your workplace really a dictatorship? Elizabeth Anderson, professor of philosophy and women's studies at the University of Michigan, argues that employers are really a form of private government.
