‘Who’s Counting?’

Published by happycolour under Uncategorized Edit This

I wanted to post an interesting video which I first encountered in a ‘Social and Political’ philosophy course, and just now stumbled upon in my ‘Women Studies’ course entitled ‘Who’s Counting?’. Its a documentary which discusses ideas of gendering and segregation of the work force, a flawed economic system, and various other issues. It’s a three part with a total length of under 30 minutes. Watch it and tell me what you think!

Part One can be found here.

Part Two can be found here.

Part Three can be found here.

Safe to say this idea and similar ideas such as Richard Laynard’s concept of economic ‘happiness’ have really assisted in shaping my views and values when looking at our current economic model and problems.

How does this make you feel?
