German elections are coming up. In our first episode we check reality with Jörg Luyken. We wonder how the crumbling of the Middle Class can affect elections.Jörg is a highly respected Berlin based journalist known for his spot on analysis of German Government and politics. He writes at thegermanreview.de We meet by a remaining piece of the Berlin Wall and we wonder if the divide actually is still alive, yet invisible.
Our new podcast “Reality Check with Élena” explores the realities that lead to informality: a notion represented by reduction of the middle class, and spread of insecurity, through a series of dynamic on-the-ground interviews in Europe, the US, and the Global south. You will hear what informality is really like, from people who have lived in it all their lives; from those who have escaped it and risen to middle class; and others who have fallen into it. We invite global intellectuals, along with journalists, policy makers, and investors to share their views on what is informality and why we must tackle it now.
