Accented Philosophy: Small is Beautiful (1973)

In this episode, Ezechiel and Andy discuss E. F. Schumacher’s famous 1973 book “Small is Beautiful”. We unpack the main theses of the book and look whether they are still valid 50 years later.

Join us for an hour-long dose of your Daily Philosophy and explore with us one of the most influential books of the 70s.

Brought to you by daily-philosophy.com.

In this podcast, with new episodes to come out every Tuesday, we talk about philosophically relevant issues in the news, discuss philosophy with guests who do interesting things beyond the classic topics of university philosophy, and generally try to shed a bit of light on issues that are too much talked about and too little understood.

Like every new endeavour, this podcast still has a few wrinkles that need ironing out and we’d be grateful if you could tell us what you thought about it in the comments. I’d also be happy to receive your proposals for future topics.
