New York Times Magazine Contributing Writer Dan Kaufman discusses his recent examination of NAFTA's role in changing American politics through the lens of the Master Lock factory in Milwaukee, Wis. Photo courtesy Dan Kaufman; Photo by Andrew T. Warman
When it was ratified more than 30 years ago, the North American Free Trade Agreement was hailed as a decision "that will permit us to create an economic order in the world that will promote more growth, more equality, better preservation of the environment, and a greater possibility of world peace," according to President Bill Clinton. Today, NAFTA is toxic, and populist anger at the multilateral free trade regime of the post-Cold War era is redefining global politics. In this episode, Dan Kaufman, a contributing writer for the New York Times Magazine, tells us how NAFTA destroyed the working class in his home state of Wisconsin, specifically in Milwaukee, once the "machine shop of the world."

When Wisconsin voters elected Janet Protasiewicz to the state's Supreme Court, it was seen a victory for democracy in a "democracy desert." So why have Republicans moved to impeach her barely a month into her tenure? Dan Kaufman, journalist and author of The Fall of Wisconsin: The Conservative Conquest of a Progressive Bastion and the Future of American Politics (W. W. Norton & Company, 2018), discusses this development and offers context. → The Wisconsin G.O.P.'s Looming Judicial Attack

We talk to Dan Kaufman, author of "The Fall of Wisconsin" about his research and reporting about Wisconsin's political landscape over the last 15 years.

Ali Velshi is joined by Former Sen. Doug Jones, (D) Alabama, Irin Carmon, Senior Correspondent at New York Magazine, Nancy Northup, President & CEO at the Center for Reproductive Rights, David Cay Johnston, Professor & Distinguished Visiting Lecturer at Syracuse University College of Law, Michele Goodwin, Professor at University of California at Irvine Law, Lisa Rubin, MSNBC Legal Analyst, Rev. Al Sharpton, Host of MSNBC's Politics Nation, Jalal Abukhater, Palestinian Writer based in Jerusalem, and Dan Kaufman, National Best-selling Author at ‘The Fall of Wisconsin: The Conservative Conquest of a Progressive Bastion and the Future of American Politics'.
Voters in Wisconsin went to the ballot box Tuesday in what many have called the most important election of the year. The results of the contest flipped the ideological make-up of the state's supreme court, sending liberal judge Janet Protasiewicz to the bench. Underscoring the race's importance, it became the most expensive judicial election in American history, with money flooding in from around the country. Dan Kaufman is the author of the 2019 best-selling book, “The Fall of Wisconsin,” and wrote about the importance of this election in a recent edition of The New Yorker. He joins Diane to explain why all eyes were on Wisconsin this week, and what the results mean for the future of the state – and the nation.
Years of gerrymandering and campaign-finance deregulation in Wisconsin have made the state a "democracy desert." An election for control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court will have broad implications for abortion access within the key swing state and the course of democracy beyond it. Dan Kaufman, journalist and author of The Fall of Wisconsin: The Conservative Conquest of a Progressive Bastion and the Future of American Politics (W. W. Norton & Company, 2018) tells us what's at stake.

Robert Gressis (UC Northridge), Dan Kaufman (Missouri State) and Kevin Currie-Knight (East Carolina) discuss what is and isn't realistic to expect of philosophy. Topics include realism (Rob) and antirealism (Dan and Kevin), foundationalism (maybe Rob) and antifoundationalism (Dan and Kevin), and what we do when we attempt to ground and justify our positions to others. The conversation sprang from a set of articles at Electric Agora. In one, Dan argued that philosophy is largely incapable of making sense of even basic moral considerations; in two others, Kevin argued that individual temperament plays a significant role in forming our philosophies. 2:10 - Dan Thinks Philosophy is Poor at Talking About Moral Commitments. Kevin Thinks Philosophy Owes Significantly to Individual Temperament. Rob Disagrees with Both Claims.13:08 - Is Foundationalism Just a Bad Metaphor (of Philosophy to Physical Space)? Can Philosophy Be Done From Outside a Particular Framework?25:14 - Rob Disagrees with Dan and Kevin's "Wittensteinian" Critiques of Foundationalism and Realism. (Freaky Friday is Also Discussed.)32:17 - Kevin's Pragmatic Account of What Kind of Truth Philosophy Can and Cannot Attain. Talking about Foundationalism.... Again.45:37 - Is (Particularly Moral) Philosophy "Just" a Matter of Opinion or Taste? (Are the Quotation Marks Necessary?)52 40 - When Should, and Why Do, We Give Reasons to "Justify" Moral Positions? 1:11:46 - Preview of a Promised Part 2 of This Discussion

Jessica Page, Lead Consultant, and Dan Kaufman, Partner at Meridian Compensation Partners, are the featured experts on this episode of The Executive Compensation Podcast. Jessica has more than 10 years of experience advising corporations on executive compensation matters including benchmarking, corporate transactions, and incentive plan design. Dan consults on a variety of issues including short- and long-term plan design, alignment of pay and performance, and compensation disclosure. Board members play a critical role in a company's management, but how should they be compensated for their time and effort? The director role is one of oversight and risk management, so pay differs from executive compensation in that it is based on service, not company performance. You'll learn how companies currently structure director compensation programs and how pay programs were impacted by the pandemic. Jessica and Dan also discuss future trends, including compensating for roles on special committees or assignments and establishing a mandatory retirement age. After you listen, connect with Jessica Page and Dan Kaufman on LinkedIn. This episode is brought to you by Meridian Compensation Partners. Learn more by visiting MeridianCP.com.

Joining me this episode for an online is journalist and author Dan Kaufman! Dan is a former newspaper journo and editor - who still occasionally writes columns for The Age and Sydney Morning Herald. He launched, ran and wrote the very popular Bar Zine before starting his own media training, writing and editing consultancy business. This year he has released his first novel, Drowning In The Shallows, a social satire poking fun at love, sex and masculinity set in the Sydney bar and nightlife scene. The pairings: A Confederacy Of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole Ignatius J. Reilly is a 30-year-old medievalist who lives at home with his mother in New Orleans, penning his magnum opus on Big Chief writing pads he keeps hidden under his bed, and relaying to anyone who will listen the traumatic experience he once had on a Greyhound Scenicruiser bound for Baton Rouge. But Ignatius's quiet life of tyrannizing his mother and writing his endless comparative history screeches to a halt when he is almost arrested by the overeager Patrolman Mancuso--who mistakes him for a vagrant--and then involved in a car accident with his tipsy mother behind the wheel. One thing leads to another, and before he knows it, Ignatius is out pounding the pavement in search of a job. The many subplots that weave through this story are as complicated as anything you'll find in a Dickens novel, and just as beautifully tied together in the end. A true tragicomedy. This is Dan's favourite book of all time and so he felt that he should pair it with his favourite cocktail of all time - the Sazerac. Invented in New Orleans, where the book is set, this cocktail is complex and bitter, just like Ignatius. A perfect pairing indeed! Vernon God Little by DBC Pierre In the small town of Martirio, Texas, fifteen-year-old Vernon Little finds himself in deep trouble after his best friend Jesus kills sixteen of his classmates before committing suicide as he becomes the target of both vengeful townspeople in search of vengeance and justice and the media's thirst for sensation. His mother, endlessly awaiting the delivery of a new refrigerator, seems to exist only to twist an emotional knife in his back; her friend, Palmyra, structures her life around the next meal at the Bar-B-Chew Barn; officer Vaine Gurie has Vernon convicted of the crime before she's begun the investigation; reporter Eulalio Ledesma hovers between a comforting father-figure and a sadistic Bond villain; and Jesus, his best friend in the world, is dead. As his life explodes before him, Vernon flees his home in pursuit of a tropical fantasy: a cabin on a beach in Mexico he once saw in the movie Against All Odds. But the police--and TV crews--are in hot pursuit. Dan would pair this story of escape to Mexico with a classic Margarita cocktail. Salty, tart and strong this drink definitely reflects its pair!
Cory Doctorow – science fiction author, journalist and co-editor of the blog Boing Boing – joins New America's Peter Singer and Passcode's Sara Sorcher to talk about society's "peak indifference" to the Surveillance State, what policies could stand in the way of a future Internet utopia, whether young people actually care about their privacy online, and what a future world war might look like in the 2020s. Dan Kaufman, director of DARPA's Information Innovation Office, chats about funding "moonshot" projects to help the military beef up its digital defenses, the risks that come with the burgeoning Internet of Things, and what it's like to work in an office with robots in the lobby.
