"Economics that serve the people"

During his lecture, economics professor Yann Algan wants to make sure his students understand one thing: “There are no right-wing economics or left-wing economics, there are just economics that serve the people”.

To do so, his pedagogical approach is somewhat unconventional. Readings, videos, and mathematics are completed with rap battles, a touch of humour, and a wide range of interesting outfits. Listen to some of the students who attended the show.

Each episode of “Prof.” takes you inside the classroom where you glimpse the relationship between a professor, his or her discipline, and the students.
