Economist and author Mark Anielski is interviewed by Ted Ritzer, host of the Alberta Greening Government Speakers Series about his second forthcoming book An Economy of Well-being: Common Sense Tools for Building Genuine Wealth and Happiness (April 2018). Mark outlines his vision for a new economic system that ties monetary policy directly to the assets of a province or nation and makes the pursuit of well-being the highest aspiration for economies. This new economic model is particularly applicable for First Nations communities throughout Canada.
