What Banksy Shows Us About Power - Barry's Economics

Filmed in front of over 20 original Banksy works across London and Bristol.This is a video about what Banksy keeps showing us, how he actually works, and why (after all this time) he's still relevant and properly revolutionary.And the answer isn't actually "because his prints sell for a lot." In fact it's almost the opposite of that.Most people know Banksy as a street artist. This video is about what he's actually doing. What he keeps pointing at. Why the establishment can't touch him, and why that fact alone tells you something important about how power and money really work.Also - For the Banksy Tour Guide that helped me around Bristol - The Lovely Luke Sergent - go to https://blackbeard2banksy.com/ to book a tour from himREFERENCES:ELINOR OSTROM:https://www.actu-environnement.com/media/pdf/ostrom\_1990.pdfGARRETT HARDINhttps://math.uchicago.edu/~shmuel/Modeling/Hardin,%20Tragedy%20of%20the%20Commons.pdfhttps://archive.org/details/makingofenglishw0000thom\_p8v7Gerald Marwel and Ruth Ames Social Experiement:"Economists free ride, does anyone else?: Experiments on the provision of public goods"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/004727278190013X"Does Studying Economics Inhibit Cooperation" Study:https://www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=10.1257%2Fjep.7.2.159I’m Barry Ferns – a comedian whose personal journey through failure, homelessness, and rebuilding led me to explore the socio and behavioural economics of inequality.This channel digs into how systems of power shape our identity, behaviour, and beliefs, and how we can shift the stories we tell ourselves and each other about poverty, inequality, and who’s to blame.How to Support Barry’s EconomicsHelp us stay independent and keep making videos like this.https://www.buymeacoffee.com/barryseconomicshttps://ko-fi.com/barryseconomicshttps://www.patreon.com/barryseconomicsFollow and leave a review for future episodes!Mailing list: https://barryferns.co.uk/You can also follow me on Tiktok: [tiktok.com/@barryseconomics](tiktok.com/@barryseconomics)Instagram: [instagram.com/barryseconomics](instagram.com/barryseconomics)Twitter: [twitter.com/barryseconomics](twitter.com/barryseconomics)Substack: https://substack.com/@barryseconomicsBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/barryseconomics.bsky.socialReddit: https://www.reddit.com/user/barryferns/If you’re new to this, check out Gary's Economics first!
