This sort of decentralizing development would be more hopeful. Remember, "The ultimate aim of production is not production of goods but the production of free human beings associated with one another on terms of equality." John Dewey via...

Here in Japan, my citizen's solar NPO buddy says that with a legal framework like Germany's everyone would put solar on the roof. He thinks each local area should implement and control energy production instead of inviting the corporate gu...

I share Mike Rissler's response to Fred Branfman's remarkable essay, particularly his acknowledgement of the important influence both Noam Chomsky and Howard Zinn have played in his life.  But I also thank Fred for presenting such a v...

Really nothing needs to be said or added, it's just that this article is so unusual and touches upon two people who have influenced me so much in my life, and as a result changed my life and continue to do so--Noam Chomsky and Howard Zinn. I ...

Klare describes well what U.S. strategists would like to accomplish, but it is beyond their means to be successful in denying China increased influence and power in the waters around and near China. China will be patient in countering U.S. objecti...

I could write a great deal about this, but I guess just making one central point would be better. It's hard to understand the point of the piece - honest debt is a moral thing, if I borrow a few dollars from you and then run off without paying...

"There is a striking irony in all this. As noted above, often the same person who raises objections to parecon for being a blueprint later asks all kinds of questions that violate minimalist maximalism. They will ask, how long will people wor...
