Compared to what, Brad? Cuba may not be as democratic as you'd like, but considering that they've been the targets of unrelenting U.S. hostility for almost 40 years, it's really not much of a surprise. And the development record is pretty hard to match? What other small, ...

40342 postpolitical humanitarianism -- rank: 1000
[from Slavoj Zizek, "A Leftist Plea for 'Eurocentrism,'" Critical Inquiry, Summer 1998] Today, however, we are dealing with another form of the denegation of the political, postmodern postpolitics, which no longer merely represses the political, trying to contain it and to pacify the returns of the repressed, but much more effectively forecloses it, so that the postmodern forms of ethnic violence, with their irrational, excessive character, are no longer simple returns of the repressed ...

40347 Tariq Ali on the radio -- rank: 1000
Folks in the NYC area - I just recorded an interview with Tariq Ali on the war madness, which I'll run on my show tonight. WBAI, 99.5 FM, 5 PM. Basically, his analysis is that the war is part of the US effort to recast NATO as a world-wide "zapping" force to keep everyone under a nice orderly hierarchy topped by the U.S. He sees it not as a sign of EU strength, but of EU failure to come to any real political union. The "cruise missile liberals" he sees as a sign of desperatio ...

40349 cost/benefit arithmetic -- rank: 1000
[Chris Caldwell in this week's New York Press] Cheerleaders for the operation say Clinton Is lucky the public Is behind him. But the perfunctory support that Americans always show when "our boys are In harm's way" should not deceive us. There is no deep American support for this mission - none. This is most apparent In the poll ABC took on the day of the bombing, in which the network asked whether "it would be worth the loss, of some American soldiers' lives if the United States c ...

40350 liquidity -- rank: 1000
[Here's a post-Keynesian view on liquidity...] LIQUIDITY PREFERENCE by Carlo Panico [from the New Palgrave Dictionary of Money and Finance] The notion of 'liquidity preference' has become generally used in the literature on monetary issues (particularly that concerned with the interest rate) following Keynes's contributions in the 1930s. It concerns the motives for demanding monetary instruments or other close substitutes. Earlier, the analysis of the demand for monetary instruments was based on ...
