Politician, economist and public intellectual: Yanis Varoufakis is one of Europe’s most intriguing and charismatic leaders. He came to prominence as Greek Foreign Minister arguing against a European Union imposed austerity, condemning the EU as anti-democratic and overly bureaucratic. Now heading his own party in the Greek Parliament – the fantastically named European Realistic Disobedience Front – he has emerged as a leader of a fiercely democratic pan-European movement and a powerful advocate for a radically humanist post-capitalist society.
