", originally self-published by Michael Shellenberger and Ted Nordhaus in 2004, argues that environmentalism is unable to deal with climate change and should "die" so that a new paradigm can emerge that can. The essay draws on history, political philosophy, and interviews with over two dozen leaders of large and small environmental organizations and foundations, including the Sierra Club, the Hewlett Foundation, and the Natural Resources Defense Council. Shellenberger and Nordhaus suggest that the 20 year failure to reduce emissions is due in part to the unwillingness of environmental leaders to expand their conception of 'the environment' to include humans and economic development. Since this essay was published Shellenberger and Nordhaus authored Break Th...

When the media knowingly republish defamation of public figures, the media are subject to possible libel actions by the defamed parties to the same extent as the original defamingparties, even when the defamatory statements are themselves newsworthy in context. This is the dilemma created by the Supreme Court's decision in New York Times Co. v. Sullivan, in which the Court went to great lengths to protect the media 's ability to report the news-even news that is false-so long as the republication is not done with a reckless disregard for the truth. What, then, should be done about information that is known to be false but is nonetheless necessary to inform public discourse? This Note suggests allowing republication based on the newsworthiness of the defamatory statements, i.e., when it ...

In 2007 [John McCain] told the Boston Globe, "The issue of economics is not something I've understood as well as I should." He has acknowledged that economics is not his strong suit. So he turned to people he has called "real strong economic minds"-people like Phil Gramm-for advice. Gramm was McCain's campaign co-chair and top economic adviser until he was forced to resign for his "this is a mental recession" and "we've become a nation of whiners" remarks. Gramm, the former Texas senator who pushed banking deregulation as chair of the Senate Banking Committee and then left for (surprise!) a top banking job, engineered the deregulated system that has fostered much of our current banking/housing meltdown. Deregulation and corporate consolidation also produced the savings and loan debacle,...
