The squares marked A and B are the same shade of gray.

Researchers often (wrongly) interpret change as having a particular direction forward and defining a particular constellation backward. Eg, phenomena of more wage labour in 20th than 18th is source of more error than insight, at least with law academics.

Attend the Global Law and Political Economy Summer Academy this July in Roccella Ionica, Italy!

Applications are due by April 25th: ysiproject.org/RoccellaAcad...

2/2 I think it is incorrect to think of him as 'mad king', more like small-mid size business owner who sees citizens as employees and and other countries/leaders as more or less peer business owners, and judging them on basis of clout, wealth, office culture, etc, and extent can profit.

1/2 Domestically, I think the key explainer of Trump is that he is driven by intent to increase personal profit through public position and having political outcomes that conform to private personality preferences.

Geo-pol, my hunch is this is bigger than Trump admin, or Trump admin is an escalation of this situation. Eg, Arrighi's predictions circa 2000 about China/America (eg, see conclusion of Long 20th Century seem rather prescient).

The international law profession today seems entangled in an economic jurisprudence of marginalist exchange and a theological jurisprudence of metaphysical settlement.

For international law to escape the most banal aspects of late 19th/20th century economic metaphysics, it would have to give up on its many legal varieties of 'exchange theory'.

A Spectrum Approach to Monetary Sovereignty and Our Dollar World Hello Readers, I have taken the last few days to rest after an intense 80 hour work week last week, having written four pieces totaling 16,000 words. I also felt that that run of pieces have sufficien...

In lieu of a New piece, I've decided to publish my June 2018 talk at the University of Manchester on Monetary Sovereignty and treating it as a "Spectrum" even as we emphasize Dollar dominance over the global financial system. I think it will be helpful to readers

So true. I feel personally that such a slow learner of any craft, and only have begun to even get close to academic writing at a decent level of clarity and education, and ways to go. People who can say something well and intelligent young are really remarkable (and def not me).

It seems relatively clear that China/Asia is ascendent accumulation regime (and by extention, cultural).

US inability to accommodate = US wants to go to war soon to try and stop + escalate China prepared for that kinetic fight.

Aka, global war between these two orders on the horizon.

Great talk. Also very nice to be like, yeah, that very smart/principled guy, he's my friend.

Prices represent capacity, not to produce, but to incapacitate, even at expense of efficiency/raise cost. In this sense, bonds as representation of share of organized violence. Political economy today balances dismantling the public but keeping them good for the debt and its enforcement.

Little story about this. I read a (then) new section in it 10 days ago. After I did, I told other people "not only is it a very good, important paper. Now I can tell its going to be the best law review article I've ever read". You'll be able to judge for yourself (Law Review editors: publish it!)

Lol. Omg, you might be right. Prices are persons too.

Everyday academics are; the question is if university leadership will.
