Monopoly – Die Revanche

Germany takes out one trillion Euro of fresh debt! For bridges, the railways, the army – essentially for the whole republic. This was announced in early 2025 and agreed in parliament. The debt brake that had appeared to be a law of nature has been released and the endless debates about balancing the budget that had ultimately brought down the traffic light coalition suddenly vanished into thin air. But where does this trillion come from? Who is Germany in debt to? Or, to put it another way: how does monetary policy work in the 21st century? Together with the economic experts from FiscalFuture, theatre-maker Calle Fuhr leaves the arena of everyday political debate behind to focus his new stage research project on those schools of economic thought that influence current political action. In a form that is playful, humorous and easy to understand, Calle Fuhr invites you to think about political economy. Because this is where the big levers are for a future worth living.
