Economics and ethics after the fall...
Marvelously challenging and more than a little depressing podcast (or video if you prefer) of a lecture presented by Professor Jeffrey Sachs at the LSE in December 2011 (I'm catching up on my podcasts steadily but slowly). Sobering stuff, but what choice have we got?
UPDATE: Another interesting LSE lecture (a panel talk actually) titled, About Time, examines some of our social and economic assumptions about the length of the work week in western nations. It feels a little like a counterpoint to Sachs' talk and is a little less dire. This one was recorded in January of this year.
