It’s over a year now since the 2008 financial crisis spread havoc throughout the global economy. Dozens of books and articles have appeared to explain what went wrong. They identify culprits ranging from Wall Street financiers overleveraging assets, to ACORN lobbying policy-makers to lower mortgage standards, to politicians closely connected to government-sponsored enterprises such as Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae failing to exercise oversight of those agencies. As time passes, armies of doctoral students will explore every nook and cranny of the 2008 meltdown. But if most governments’ policy responses to the crisis are any guide, it’s apparent that many lessons from the financial crisis are being ignored or escaping most policy-makers’ attention. Here are five of them...

In Kopenhagen geht es ums Ganze

Zwei Wochen vor Beginn der UN-Klimakonferenz besteht wieder Hoffnung auf ein verbindliches Abkommen der Weltgemeinschaft mit dem Ziel, den Temperaturanstieg auf zwei 2 Grad zu begrenzen. Diese globale Erwärmung würde zwar viele Katastrophen und Millionen Klimaflüchtlinge nach sich ziehen, aber die ganz große Katastrophe wohl noch verhindern.

Afghanistan is an unjust, unwinnable war

Campaign For Liberty
by Jake Towne

11/19/09

While Republican Bush II once famously claimed he was ‘the decider,’ the ‘Change We Can Believe In’ promised by his replacement, the Democrat Obama, is hardly any different in regards to the Afghanistan and Pakistan wars. The media and American people breathlessly await the President’s decision on how many troops to send into the war zone. With spines made of jelly, Congress is as toothless as a bunch of newborns as they delegate their responsibilities to represent the American people to a single man. What could they ‘Change’ instead?

A Conversation About Nonviolence

Eric Stoner, Yes! Magazine: "Despite the amazing string of victories that 'people power' movements have chalked up over recent decades, it's surprising how little-known many of these stories still are, even to folks who are politically aware in many other respects. That is why 'Weapons of Mass Democracy,' Stephen Zunes' article in the Fall 2009 issue of Yes! Magazine, is so important, especially for those just discovering the hidden history and potential of nonviolence."

"For Youth: A Disciplinary Discourse Only"

Jean-Marie Durand, lesinrocks.com, interviews anthropologist Alain Bertho about the global phenomenon of popular riots (Translation: Leslie Thatcher): "There is something serious in this move to action by the individuals involved. They put their bodies - their lives - in danger with the virtual certainty of losing. The repetition of the phenomenon must test us, question us. It clearly tells us about the overall global collapse of political space as space for the representation of popular suffering and hopes ... Youth is no longer considered the world's future, but as a threat to its present."

A COMPUTER engineer has backed a Lydiate father’s decision to take his child out of school after Wi-Fi laptops were installed.

Phil Hughes, of Church Lane, feared his daughter Serena’s health would be risked if she was exposed to emissions from the 50 new wireless laptops.

And IT expert Ron Baxter of Rowan Lane in Skelmersdale claims Wi-Fi in schools CAN cause problems for children.

Phil, 58, and his wife Rosa decided to remove her from Woodlands Primary School in Formby.

Ron, whose clients include Asda, said: “Many medical experts now claim that radiation from wireless Wi-Fi routers can cause health problems, particularly for children.
