After the meeting last night in Celbridge (11/9/2012) I had a look again at Steve Keen's appearances in Ireland. He is the author of Debunking Economics and spoke at a meeting organised by IIEA in Dublin on Nov. 15 2011 and again in April 2012. There is a video of the first meeting available online. It is 42 minutes long and is a scathing attack on neoclassical theory from several aspects including its Theory of Equilibrium, Law of Demand and theory of Money. It is very strong but condensed and a bit technical in places. It includes much material from his book but in very concise form.
I accessed it through the ASPO Ireland website. Of course Keen has his own websites which contain some shorter videos of his ideas.
Transition Town Maynooth is part of an international movement with a shared concern: How can our community respond to the challenges presented by a changing climate and the end of the era of cheap oil? This website provides updates on our events, a list of local food sources, recipes that use local and organic food, a 'grow your own' page and information on peak oil.
