INI KOPER#815 Bagaimana Cara Memperlambat Jam Kiamat?Jam Kiamat (Doomsday Clock) saat ini berada pada posisi paling kritis dalam sejarah, yakni 100 detik menuju tengah malam, yang menandakan betapa dekatnya manusia dengan kepunahan.Noam Chomsky menjelaskan bahwa krisis iklim ini bukanlah sebuah ketidaksengajaan, melainkan konsekuensi logis dari sistem kapitalisme yang memuja akumulasi kekayaan tanpa batas. Ancaman eksistensial ini dipandang setara dengan perang nuklir karena secara perlahan namun pasti menghancurkan fondasi kehidupan akibat para pemimpin yang lebih memilih keuntungan jangka pendek daripada keselamatan bumi.
Untuk menunda kehancuran tersebut, Robert Pollin menawarkan solusi konkret melalui Global Green New Deal yang berfokus pada transformasi ekonomi, bukan sekadar pembaruan...

Mostly EconomicsMostly Economics Podcast #19: Trump's Economic Chaos with Robert PollinDean Baker and economist Robert Pollin discuss Trump's chaotic first weeks - from firing Fed Governor Lisa Cook over mortgage paperwork to shutting down an 80% complete wind farm. They examine how erratic tariff policies hurt workers while creating business uncertainty, and why attacking clean energy gives China a competitive advantage. The conversation reveals a troubling pattern of prioritizing political theater over sound economic policy.

theAnalysis.newsCan the Green Transition Work for Workers? – Robert PollinThis interview was produced by INET. Robert Pollin presents a compelling case for a global Green New Deal that fights climate change without sacrificing jobs. He explains why the shift to renewable energy is not just technologically possible, but economically beneficial—creating far more jobs than fossil fuels. But without strong labor protections and guaranteed wages, pensions, and reemployment for fossil fuel workers, the transition risks political backlash. Drawing from work in West Virginia and beyond, Pollin outlines the real costs, benefits, and global financing strategies needed to meet the 2050 net-zero target—while ensuring no community is left behind.

The current bout of inflation is global, not domestic. It’s higher in other economies than in the US. It’s primarily due to the global pandemic and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. And it may already be over. Yet the Fed seems intent on risking recession to fight it with tools that ignore its real causes.

Dear AnalystDear Analyst Episode #40: A spreadsheet error from two Harvard professors leading to incorrect economic policies after 2008 recessionThis post originally appeared on the KeyCuts blog.It's 2010, and the world is coming out of recession.

The results potentially lead to incorrect economic policies, austerity measures, and high unemployment around the world. This is a Google Sheet which shows one of the spreadsheet errors, a...

The Nation PodcastsDaniel Ellsberg: Espionage and Julian Assange; plus Robert Pollin on Medicare for All and Alyssa Battistoni on Climate PoliticsThe indictment of Julian Assange on espionage charges is an attack on freedom of the press—that’s what Daniel Ellsberg argues. Ellsberg too was indicted under the Espionage Act – and put on trial by the Nixon Administration in 1972, because he leaked a top secret history of American involvement in Viet Nam to the New York Times and other publications. They called it the Pentagon Papers.

The Future Is A Mixtape012: #$hitsStillFuckedUpAndBullshitOn this episode of The Future Is A Mixtape, Matthew & Jesse go beyond Michael Moore’s Where to Invade Next and his apt citations of policy successes in other societies found outside the U.S., and will instead grapple with the stasis of the Left and its tragic inability to wrest change from the Death-Dealers of Neoliberalism.

How can we transcend the suffering and carnage found in our daily lives that are as deceptively petty as buying child-socks at Target, but are, nonetheless, consumer ri...
