First, this blog replaces my previous blog, thecosmoplitanlawyerblogspot.com . Second, unlike that earlier blog, the present one is primarily meant as a record of my readings. It is not meant to suggest that others will be or should be interested in what I read. And third, in a sense, it is a public diary of one who is an alien in his own American culture. A person who feels at home just about anywhere, except in his birthplace . . . America.

Robert Pollin, Greening the Global Economy (Cambridge, Massachusetts, & London, England: A Boston Review Book/ The MIT Press, 2015) (From the book jacket: "All too frequently inaction in climate change is blamed on its potential harm to the economy. Pollin shows that greening the economy is not only possible but necessary: global economic growth depends on it.").
