In this video[1] Varoufakis takes on modern economics and their models as a way of understanding the real world and predict what's going to happen.

On a higher level, I believe that he speaks for most (if not all) social sciences and what happens when they cross mathematical models who blindly try to understand and predict the real world through a flawed, limited mathematical model.
