The British realise their food is bland and that's a good thing, according to world renowned economist Ha-Joon Chang.

In this interview, Lewis Bassett speaks to Ha-Joon about some of the key themes in his latest book 'Edible Economics'; from how the field of economics has become something of a monoculture, to why its hypocritical of rich nations to encourage poorer ones to accept free trade.

Ha-Joon Chang is a professor of economics at SOAS university London. 'Edible Economics' is out now.
