Wir hören Jake Sullivan unter Biden und ordnen die Sachlagen mithilfe einer aktuellen Rede von Adam Tooze ein. Es gibt doch große Linien über die Präsidenten hinweg, sogar heute. Dann stellen wir uns grundsätzliche Fragen: Ein neuer Papst, viele alte Ideen und KI, die nicht nur mit Menschen redet, sondern auch Selbstgespräche führt. Sollten wir die alten Lehren nochmal neu schätzen lernen, auch unter Atheisten? Einladend sind die ersten Äußerungen von Leo XIV. allemal. Gegen Ende befassen wir uns mit Ostmullen und dem Ende des Internets. Wenn ihr Hinweise auf hübsche Büroräume in Frankfurt habt: mail@stefanschulz.com, thx. 00:00:53 ESC ungesehen Thema: Eurovision Song Contest (ESC). Sänger J.J.

“Abundance,” the book I co-wrote with Derek Thompson, hit bookstore shelves a little over a month ago, and the response has been beyond anything I could have imagined. And it's generated a lot of interesting critiques, too, especially from the left. So I wanted to dedicate an episode to talking through some of them.My guests today are both on the left but have very different perspectives. Zephyr Teachout is a law professor at Fordham University and one of the most prominent voices in the antimonopoly movement. Saikat Chakrabarti is the president and co-founder of New Consensus, a think tank that has been trying to think through what it would take to build at Green New Deal scale and pace. And he is currently running to unseat Nancy Pelosi in Congress.I found this conversation wonderfully clarifying — both in the places it revealed agreement, and perhaps even more in the places it revealed difference.Mentioned:“How the Gentry Won: Property Law's Embrace of Stasis” by David Schleicher and Roderick M.

Darrell Castle talks about the new way of looking at things or the new general consensus that emanates from a disrespect for the constitutional framework of law and justice. Transcription / Notes THE NEW CONSENSUS Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday, the 29th day of March in the year of our Lord 2024. I will be talking about the new way of looking at things or the new general consensus based on how the system programs us toward a general agreement on a preconceived set of outcomes for a particular series of events. I will argue that the new consensus emanates from a disrespect for the constitutional framework of law and justice now being taught in America's law schools. This is not just Friday but Good Friday, three days before Easter Sunday. Good Friday commemorates the day more than two thousand years ago that Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a borrowed donkey to great fanfare. He was the king, but he did not look like what the system thought a king should look like. He did not ride in on a great warhorse, he wore no battle armor, and he carried no sword and so the system and the people rejected him and called for the Roman, Pontius Pilate to order him crucified. The consensus went from hosanna to the son of David to cries of crucify him in a matter of hours. Please don't think that I am comparing anyone alive today with Jesus because that is not my intent. I am just trying to show how the consensus can change quickly and how that can sometimes subvert the entire system of law and justice. Consensus today goes something like this; there's widespread agreement that something must be done; there is a growing consensus in the country; the general consensus is this; the study shows a strong consensus so let's take a vote. Trouble arises with the idea of a consensus when we forget that America is a country based on law and the rights of the individual. Each individual American is protected by law and assured that his rights cannot be taken from him without a fair and proper hearing called due process of law. The hearing must not be an already decided sham of the law based on what the consensus has already decided. The system must not, whether by consensus, or by the dictates of one individual, declare a person or group as tainted or already guilty. The act of labeling someone as tainted was common in the English Crown days and was occasionally used against the American colonists so they specifically prohibited it in the U.S. Constitution. That prohibition is in Article one Section 9, paragraph 3: “No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto law shall be passed.” The term ex post facto means a law that was not in effect when the accused supposedly violated it but was passed later. These two things specifically prohibited by the supreme law of the land are being used against one person and those who support that person today right here in America. Yes, Donald Trump, it seems, is not liked by those in charge and has been declared “tainted” by them. The idea of due process and presumed innocent are now just quaint memories from our history, interesting but no longer there to protect individuals who are tainted. I will also tell you that the obligation to provide due process of law cannot be met when the accused has been declared guilty by the system before the process starts. I have been a lawyer for more than 40 years having gone to law school in the mid 1970's so I admit to having a love for the rule of law and its protection of the individual American. Here in America some overzealous prosecutor or judge is not allowed to override the rule of law because they think someone or some group of some ones is tainted and outside the protection of law. I scratch my head and I wonder how the system could have changed so much in the 45 years that I have been a lawyer so I read, I investigate, I try to discern what happened and I reach conclusions. In my day we were taught and we believed that as lawyers we were...

Well, Well, Well, this is very interesting. Back in May 10, 2023, we released an episode on "OSA (Obstructive Sleep Apnea) in Pregnancy: Time to Screen?". In that episode, we summarized the impressive data on OSA in pregnancy and its association with some adverse perinatal sequelae. Spring forward to July 6, 2023, the ACOG has now released a brand new Consensus Statement on OSA in pregnancy. This statement is a joint guideline from the Society of Anesthesia and Sleep Medicine and the Society for Obstetric Anesthesia and Perinatology. Seems that we were ahead of the curve on this one. So, should we screen for OSA in pregnancy? The answer is YES and NO. Is CPAP really safe in pregnancy? We'll explain in this episode.

On this week's episode of Lever Time: After corporate pundits spent the last year gaslighting the American public into believing that rising corporate profits were definitely not driving inflation, now economists and financial institutions are arriving at consensus that rising corporate profits are in fact driving inflation.David Sirota sits down with Lindsay Owens, the Executive Director of the Groundwork Collaborative, and Hal Singer, the Managing Director of Econ One, who have both been sounding the alarm for over a year about corporate price gouging and profiteering which have been driving inflation. The group digs into the origins of the false inflation narrative, which corporate pundits and beltway economists are most responsible, and how policymakers can push back.A transcript of this episode is available here.Links: How Pundits' Inflation Myth Crushed The Working Class (The Lever, 2023) The Real Inflation Problem: Corporate Profiteering (Groundwork Collaborative, 2022) With the New Consensus on How Profits Are Driving Inflation, We Must Pivot to New Policies (The Sling, 2023) BONUS: Next Monday's bonus episode of Lever Time Premium, exclusively for The Lever's supporting subscribers, will include our interview with Tara Raghuveer, the campaign director for the People's Action Home Guarantee campaign, to discuss the skyrocketing rent prices across the U.S. Tara explains who's profiting off rising rents and what policies can be put in place to help renters.If you'd like access to Lever Time Premium, which includes extended interviews and bonus content, head over to LeverNews.com to become a supporting subscriber.If you'd like to leave a tip for The Lever, click the following link.

Bioneers: Revolution From the Heart of Nature | Bioneers Radio Series
As climate chaos and obscene inequality ravage people and planet, a new generation of visionaries is emerging to demand a bold solution: a Green New Deal. Is it a remedy that can actually meet the magnitude and urgency of this turning point in the human enterprise? With lifelong activist and politician Tom Hayden, and Demond Drummer of Policy Link. Featuring Tom Hayden (1939-2016) was one of the leading figures of the student, civil rights, anti-war and environmental movements of the 1960s, and went on to serve 18 years in the California legislature. Following his legislative career, he directed the Peace and Justice Resource Center. Demond Drummer is Managing Director for Equitable Economy at Policy Link, and a Fellow at New Consensus, a nonprofit working to develop and promote the Green New Deal that has advised many progressive leaders and organizations, including Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the Sunrise Movement.

Tenketanken New Consensus står bak ideen om en Green New Deal og kongressmedlemmer som Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Skiftet den amerikanske økonomien må gjennom for å sikre arbeidsplasser som folk kan livnære seg på er enormt, og vil kreve at staten tar mye mer styring. Exley mener det er mye å lære fra Norge, Sør-Korea og fra amerikansk historie. Episoden er på engelsk.

Marisa and Guy Marzorati discuss how California leaders are responding to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and new poll numbers showing support for vaccine and mask mandates in California schools. Then, Saikat Chakrabarti, president of the think tank New Consensus, joins to talk about the tools he developed while working for Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign, running Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's campaign and congressional office and why progressives should focus more on building supply to address climate change and affordability.
The Washington Consensus, first devised in 1989, is an economic paradigm that was reflected in the prevailing economic thinking as well as policy recommendations. However, as the world faces more fragilities and shocks than it used to, one might start wondering whether we should go further to address the acute and chronic issues that threaten the resilience of our societies. Economic orthodoxy might be shifting. In this episode, Thomas Wieser joins Maria Demertzis and André Sapir to talk about his recent report for the G7 'Global Economic Resilience: Building Forward Better' in which the authors present a new economic agenda, the Cornwall Consensus, to address the risk to economic resilience: environmental and health, and geo-political and socio-economic.
Over the last two decades, the concept of enacting a “Green New Deal” in the United States has increasingly gained popularity. In the political arena, the concept of a massive jobs program designed to drive the “Greening” of the American economy was first pushed for by the Green Party. More recently, however, it has become a central theme advocated for by progressives within the Democratic Party. For many on the left, the Green New Deal is envisaged as a bold program designed not only to tackle the growing environment crisis but also to create millions of new well-paying manufacturing jobs. However, what exactly would a Green New Deal look like in practice? How would it be implemented? And is it even a realistic prospect given the prevailing economic and political order in the United States? We ask these questions and more. This is Revolution. About Zack: Zack Exley is a co-founder and senior advisor of New Consensus, where he focuses on strategy, recruiting, and fundraising. Zack has been a pioneer in the worlds of political campaigning, organizing, and fundraising for more than 20 years. Thank you, guys, again for taking the time to check this out.

New Consensus president and former AOC chief of staff Saikat Chakrabarti discusses the omissions of the American Recovery Plan.
Our friends over at New Consensus recently released an op-ed in CNN with some ideas for how Biden can fix the vaccine bottlenecks now and ramp up vaccine manufacturing to inoculate everyone in America--and even the world. We spoke with Isaac Larkin, Demond Drummer, Robert Hockett, Amy Ramirez and Zack Exley (this time speaking on behalf of New Consensus) about how we can speed up vaccination, and why it could mean the difference between COVID-19 being history a year from now, and COVID-19 being something we deal with every year forever.Subscribe to the newsletter at buildingthedream.substack.com.
This week's episode begins with the advice New Zealand’s Trade Minister Damien O’Connor attempted to offer Australia on how to manage bilateral relations with China. Was it helpful, and regardless does Australia have something to learn from the way New Zealand conducts its diplomacy and foreign policy? And what explains the starkly different trajectories of the bilateral relationships Canberra and Wellington have with Beijing? The military has taken power in Myanmar—again—and Allan offers a sorrowful perspective on the state of the country to which he was first posted as a young diplomat. Meanwhile, Darren wonders what the Biden administration will do, and wonders whether there is merit in the US looking to support some key Southeast Asian governments in their response, rather than necessarily attempting to lead at a time when their own democratic credentials are diminished. Is "ASEAN solidarity" still in the interests of all of its member states? Regular podcast listeners will know how much stock Allan and Darren place on speeches, and this week they focus on the speech given by Chinese President Xi Jinping to the World Economic Forum. How is reading and analysing a speech from a Chinese leader different to that of an Australian PM or US president? What were the notable takeaways from this speech, and who was its primary audience? Finally, Australia has a brand new Comprehensive Strategic Partnership with Malaysia. Perhaps an example of “fresh thinking” in Australian foreign policy? We thank AIIA intern Mitchell McIntosh for his help with research and audio editing and Rory Stenning for composing our theme music.

New Consensus president Saikat Chakrabarti talks about what Biden can do, even without Congress, to make a real difference in the lives of ordinary Americans
Happy Thanksgiving! We took short a hiatus from the podcast to spend more time at our day jobs at New Consensus. We developed and pushed out a memo to the Biden transition team that details how he could lead a multi-trillion dollar economic rebuilding project even if Democrats don't win the Senate races in Georgia. In this episode, we delve into the details of that plan. We recorded this episode at the beginning of that process right after the election when we were first putting this plan together, so some of it may sound a little dated.You can read the full memo here: https://newconsensus.com/projects/building-back-better-without-the-senateYou can also read a more digestible version of it in this op-ed Saikat wrote: https://www.thenation.com/article/economy/biden-build-better-senate/Subscribe to the newsletter at buildingthedream.substack.com.
The New Consensus is a recently-formed think tank that wants to adjust the way we’re responding to some of the biggest problems facing humanity. Dr. Robert Hockett is a fellow at New Consensus and the Edward Cornell Professor of Law & Finance at Cornell University and former Counsel at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the International Monetary Fund, and he joins to today to discuss a memo The New Consensus sent to the incoming Biden administration including their proposed strategy for resurrecting an economy ravaged by coronavirus.Executive Producer: Adell ColemanProducer: Brittany TempleDistributor: DCP EntertainmentFor additional content: makeitplain.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Come 2021 the Democrats are likely to find themselves in control of the Presidency and the House but not the Senate — meaning Mitch McConnell will be in a position to block any ambitious legislation from the new administration. But as Trump has shown us, there’s a lot a president can do without congress. Robert Hockett and Demond Drummer from New Consensus and Dave Dayen from the American Prospect join Ryan Grim to discuss just how much Biden can do on his own.

The Federal Reserve was originally set up to be America's development bank. But somehow along the way, it lost its course. Join us as we chat with Professor Bob Hockett about his ideas on returning the Fed to its roots so we can go back to investing in all of America.---Professor Hockett is the author of Financing the Green New Deal: A Plan of Action and Renewal and Money From Nothing: Or, Why We Should Stop Worrying About Debt and Learn to Love the Federal Reserve. He is the Edward Cornell Professor of Law at Cornell Law School, Professor of Public Affairs at Cornell University, and Regular Visiting Professor of Finance at Georgetown’s McDonough School of Business. He teaches, writes, publishes and advises in the fields of Enterprise-Organizational and Financial & Monetary Law and Economics, among other fields. He has advanced degrees in Law, Economics, Philosophy, and Finance. He is also Senior Counsel at Westwood Capital, a boutique investment bank in New York City and a Director of both the Public Banking Institute and the Digital Fiat Currency Institute. In the latter connection, his Inclusive Value Ledger (‘IVL’) proposal, which would institute a public digital payments platform and associated system of digital wallets and currency at any ‘level’ of government that adopted it, is under consideration by the New York State Senate and Assembly. And his Digital Greenbacks proposal, which would function as a Treasury-administered IVL at the national level, is under consideration in both Houses of the US Congress. Hockett has previously worked at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the International Monetary Fund (twice), clerked on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit, and is a Fellow of New Consensus and The Century Foundation and a Commissioned Author for the New America Foundation. He has also frequently consulted for and testified before the U.S. Congress (Senate Banking and House Financial Services in particular) and consulted for multiple government instrumentalities at the federal, state, and local levels, including the Fed, the Treasury, and the Financial Stability Oversight Council. Most recently he has helped draft multiple pieces of high-profile legislation for each of U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders, U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, and U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. In policy circles he is probably best known for helping develop the Green New Deal white paper and finance plan for Representative Ocasio-Cortez; the Public Housing Green New Deal Act for Representative Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Sanders; the Loan Shark Prevention Act for Senator Sanders and Representative Ocasio-Cortez; the Too Big to Fail, Too Big to Exist Act, the STOP Walmart Act, and the Corporate Democracy Plan for Senator Sanders; the Stop Excessive CEO Pay Act for Senator Sanders and Representatives Lee and Tlaib; the Accountable Capitalism Act for Senator Warren, and the eminent domain plan for underwater mortgages adopted by many U.S. cities after the financial crashes of 2008-09.
In Episode 139 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Matt Stoller, Director of Research at the American Economic Liberties Project and author of Goliath: The Hundred Year War Between Monopoly Power and Democracy. In this nearly two-hour long conversation, we discuss how monopoly, commercial concentration, and regulatory capture drive outcomes in our economy, markets, and political system and what we can do to take that power back. This episode was recorded on Friday, May 29th, amidst the riots that have been unfolding across the country in response to the death of George Floyd, a 46-year old African American man who appears to have been suffocated by Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin. Neither Matt or Demetri are in any position to provide further insight into what is transpiring in Minneapolis, but they do discuss the response by some members of the media, the White House, as well as the President’s statement that he is going to issue an executive order to roll back Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act with its legal protections for social media companies. We also discuss the Joe Rogan-Spotify deal in the context of antitrust regulation and concentration in the podcast industry, the arrest of a CNN crew in Minneapolis, private equity and the regulatory capture of government by the financial sector, and perhaps most importantly a conversation about the future of the Democratic and Republican parties and whether we are living through the early stages of a new political consensus forming in American life.

Today’s episode is a rerun of Episode 56, where Quinn & Brian asked: What’s it feel like to be asked to save the world? Our guest is Rhiana Gunn-Wright, who is writing policy and leading the Green New Deal project at New Consensus, which is one of the main think tanks working on the Green New Deal. The Green New Deal is one of the most important pieces of policy being worked on right now, and it could have wide sweeping effects that impact not just our generation but the future for everyone. Conversations around environmental topics tend to get real political real fast, but Rhiana reminds us that this isn’t a political issue – this is not a political game and millions of people will die.

Rhiana Gunn-Wright, Policy Director, New ConsensusHannah Perry, DC Hub Coordinator, Sunrise MovementModerated by Stephanie Doyle The Green New Deal has captured national headlines and reshaped the national dialogue around climate change. Meet a leader from the Sunrise movement who put the Green New Deal on the map, and a chief architect of what policies will be included in a Green New Deal, Rhiana Gunn-Wright of New Consensus. We’ll discuss how we got to where we are, what comes next, and how we can all push for solutions together. #CCL2019 Conference Presentations & Videos: http://cclusa.org/presentationsFollow us on Facebook: http://facebook.com/CitizensClimateLobbyTwitter: https://twitter.com/citizensclimate
If you’re asked to picture an environmentalist or climate activist, what do you see? Is it a white guy with a beard who wears a Patagonia fleece and rides his bike to work? Whether you agree with the policy or not, one of the benefits of the Green New Deal lies in the fact that it ‘builds a bigger tent.’ By addressing the twin pressures of climate change and income inequality, the proposed legislation opens the conversation about climate to a wider audience—one that includes everyone from the rural population in traditionally red states to people living on the south side of Chicago. Rhiana Gunn-Wright is the Policy Director at New Consensus and one of the architects behind the Green New Deal. Before New Consensus, Rhiana was the Policy Director for Dr. Abdul El-Sayed’s 2018 gubernatorial campaign in Michigan. She has also worked as the policy analyst for the Detroit Health Department and served as a policy intern for former First Lady Michelle Obama. Rhiana earned her BA in African American and Women’s Studies at Yale and her master’s in Comparative Social Policy from Oxford. Today, Rhiana joins Ross, Christophe, and Ramez to share a high-level overview of the Green New Deal, explaining how it leverages an economic mobilization framework to tackle climate change and income inequality. She describes how public response to the bill has surprised her, discussing the criticisms she finds useful and some of the writers offering constructive analysis. Listen in for Rhiana’s insight around aspects of the Green New Deal with the potential for bipartisan support and learn how the policy might include new groups in the conversation around climate change—and help the US lead on a global scale!

Last month, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Ed Markey introduced a Green New Deal resolution, outlining a bold effort to decarbonize the US economy and forestall the worst effects of climate change. Ever since, it has been the talk of the town in Washington, drawing praise and criticism from all quarters. But most critics completely misunderstood the resolution. It is not a policy document. It is a set of goals and principles meant to guide the development of policy. The work of fleshing out the policy details is largely in the hands of Rhiana Gunn-Wright, working out of a think tank called New Consensus. Gunn-Wright is busy consulting a broad slate of experts, with the goal of assembling a policy framework that will be ready to go when/if Democrats take power in 2021. Vox staff writer David Roberts sat down with Gunn-Wright to chat about how she’s approaching this monumental task, why the Green New Deal includes social and economic goals (like full employment) alongside environmental goals, and what she makes of the criticism that the plan is “unrealistic.” Book recommendations: The Entrepreneurial State: Debunking Public vs. Private Sector Myths by Mariana Mazzucato Fear Itself: The New Deal and the Origins of Our Time by Ira Katznelson We are conducting an audience survey to better serve you.

We've been fairly US-centric lately, but only because so much is finally happening there. In today's episode, we speak with Rhiana Gunn-Wright of New Consensus. That's the Think Tank that's helping freshman Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and veteran Senator Ed Markey develop policy to support the Green New Deal they proposed last month.
In Episode 56, Quinn & Brian ask: What’s it feel like to be asked to save the world? Our guest is Rhiana Gunn-Wright, who is writing policy and leading the Green New Deal project at New Consensus, which is one of the main think tanks working on the Green New Deal. The Green New Deal is one of the most important pieces of policy being worked on right now, and it could have wide sweeping effects that impact not just our generation but the future for everyone. Conversations around environmental topics tend to get real political real fast, but Rhiana reminds us that this isn’t a political issue – this is not a political game and millions of people will die. Sorry, no joke there, just a stark reality that too many people are happily ignoring.

Since its debut last year, the Green New Deal has created quite a stir in Washington. Some have praised it as the most ambitious national project since Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal, while others have dismissed it as a green dream. Earlier this week, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) partnered to introduce a preview of this bold new effort to address both economic inequality and climate change. In this episode of Columbia Energy Exchange, host Jason Bordoff is joined by one of the architects of the Green New Deal, Rhiana Gunn-Wright. Rhiana is the Policy Director for New Consensus, the progressive policy shop advancing the deal. She breaks down the thinking behind this sweeping plan, which calls for 100% clean energy as well as affordable housing and high-quality healthcare. They discuss the speed, scale and scope of the Green New Deal, and the collective spirit driving the new policy.

The fall of Margaret Thatcher left a legacy that was both contested and divisive. During the 1990s, the Conservative Party, under the impact of divisions on Europe and on economic policy, began to fragment. But, after four election defeats, Labour, under Tony Blair, who relabeled the party New Labour, seemed to be adopting some of the main tenets of Thatcherism. To what extent was there a new consensus in the 1990s, and were the policies of the New Labour government, elected in 1997, an extension of Thatcherism or a repudiation of it?This is a part of the lecture series Britain in the Twentieth Century: Progress and Decline.
The central tenet of democratic capitalism has always been to allow the market to operate with minimal interference from elected governments. This underlying assumption is now being challenged. With the public's distrust of Government growing, will they entrust major financial decisions to...
