Abstract

Wolfgang Streeck is the Director of the Max Planck Institute for Social Research in Cologne and Professor of Sociology at the University of Cologne. More than that, he is well-known for his decades-long work on areas ranging from institutionalism to varieties of capitalism theories to his essays on the end of capitalism, which sparked debates and exchanges across various movements and disciplines. One of these debates was the seminar “Why the Euro Divides Europe?” organized on October 21st 2016 by the Institute for Philosophy and Social Theory in Belgrade in dedication to Streeck’s work1. Prof. Streeck, who was in attendance, delivered a lecture dedicated to the topic, followed by an intense discussion. What follows is an interview with prof. Streeck done in the wake of the seminar and theoretical engagements which emerged thereof.
