The more I learned about economics, the more I discovered a landscape that is surpassingly strange.

The edifice is based upon a conception of human nature that […]

The British press has been the most consistently bellicose on the subject of Russia-Ukraine: the same phrases, the same sentiments were on display in every mainstream newspaper and political magazine An accepted difference between a despotism and a democracy is that in the first there is a single opinion while the second allows a variety … Continue reading “Slava Ukraini!”: how the British media went to war against Russia

Only one thing is clear about the events of the past week. We are now living in an age of chaos, argues the author and former diplomat Arthur Snell
The UK government has signalled its intention to “proscribe” the protest group Palestine Action under anti-terrorism legislation. This will place it in the same legal category as Al Qaeda and Islamic State: it will be illegal to belong to the group, to show public support for it, to arrange a meeting in support for it, […]
