Here’s more information about some of the dissenting economists and others who are in the film (they’re listed in order first seen). I’m hoping you’d like to find out more about what they have to say. Coming at academic economics from the outside, my journey led from one critical economist’s book to an another or to an interview with the author and another book or a video and another economist. . . . (I’ve mainly listed the writing of theirs that was part of my research, and their websites).
Also, at the end there’s a list of some links to other economists, publications and videos that I used in making the film.
