“Creating an Economic System That Works for All”
“CREATING AN ECONOMIC SYSTEM THAT WORKS FOR ALL” Comprehensive Public Policy Initiatives 1 10.07.20 THERE IS NO GOING BACK “Creating an Economic System that Works for All” Public Policy Initiatives There is no going back! The COVID-19 crisis together with the outrage about the ongoing racism in America has revealed what many of us have always known: our current system of capitalism does not work for most Americans. As Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Steven Pearlstein recently wrote, “our economic system has run off the moral rails, offending our sense of fairness, eroding our sense of community, poisoning our politics and rewarding values that easily degenerate into greed and indifference.” This dysfunction was recognized in a recent May 2020 JUST Capital/Harris Poll where 75% of Americans believe our current form of capitalism doesn’t ensure the greater good of society, and only 29% believe it produces the kind of society they want for the next generation or believes it works for the average American.1 In December 2019 the American Sustainable Business Council (ASBC) launched its work on Creating an Economic System that Works for All at its Washington DC Summit and in March 2020 ASBC launched its multi- stakeholder Working Group (details on the participants of the Working Group can be found in the appendix.) The working group has identified the most important business-related public policy initiatives required to Create an Economy that Works for All. ASBC initiated these conversations because while capitalism remains a dynamic force, challenges such as income inequality, crumbling infrastructure, market consolidation, climate change, underinvestment, and the financialization of America’s economy pose serious threats to our continued global leadership and social stability. -
A Small Slice of the Chicago Eight Trial
A Small Slice of the Chicago Eight Trial Ellen S. Podgor* The Chicago Eight trial was not the typical criminal trial, in part because it occurred at a time of society’s polarization, student demonstrations, and the rise of the House Un-American Activities Committee. Charges were levied against eight defendants, who were individuals that represented leaders in a variety of movements and groups during this time. This Essay examines the opening stages of this trial from the lens of a then relatively new criminal defense attorney, Gerald Lefcourt. It looks at his experiences before Judge Julius Hoffman and highlights how strong, steadfast criminal defense attorneys can make a difference in protecting key constitutional rights and values. Although judicial independence is crucial to a system premised on due process, it is also important that lawyers and law professors stand up to misconduct and improprieties.

The U.S. consumer financial watchdog on Friday outlined how it would define “abusive” practices when overseeing companies, in another win for the industry, which has long complained that the agency has overstepped its remit by applying the term far too aggressively. Following the 2007-2009 global financial crisis, Congress passed the Dodd-Frank Act giving the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) broad authority to stamp out “abusive” acts or practices related to consumer financial products, in addition to “unfair” and “deceptive” practices. While the latter two legal terms were well defined, Dodd-Frank was the first federal law to prohibit “abusive” lending practices CFPB Limits Its Own Powers Against Abusive Conduct in New Policy | Bloomberg The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is putting limits on the ways that it will use its power to pursue banks and other financial companies for abusive practices against consumers. 1 The 2010 Dodd-Frank Act gave the CFPB the unique authority to go after companies for abusive practices alongside long-established standards for pursuing unfair or deceptive acts and practices (UDAP). -
Poetics of Protest: a Fluxed History of the 1968 DNC (A Dialogue for Six Academic Voices)
Liminalities: A Journal of Performance Studies Vol. 8, No. 4, September 2012 Poetics of Protest: A Fluxed History of the 1968 DNC (A Dialogue for Six Academic Voices) Tom Lavazzi Commentator/Over Voice (CO; as described below)/Conductor (“Panel Chair”) Documents (“objective”) Fluxedout (Fluxed; Fluxus attitude) New Historical Left (NHL; based on “old” and “new” New Left and New Historicist voices) The Institute for Cultural Studies (TICS; an institutionalized postmodern academic voice) Yippedout (Yipped; Yippie! Doubling occasionally as “Lecturer”) Poetics of Protest is staged as a typical (atypical) academic conference panel presentation. At the front of the room are two long tables, one for the panelists and another for props. Props overflowing the table may also be ranged around the room, redeploying chalkboard ledges, windowsills, and floor margins, marking the space’s boundaries. Redeployed, theoretically fortified cereals (i.e., empty boxes)—Zizek 0sTM, Blau PopsTM, Lucky Deleuze, Baudrillard PuffsTM, Foucault Flakes, etc.—are suspended from the ceiling. There is also a podium, a data projector and projection screen1 displaying an interactive image map of Chicago, circa 1968, highlighting the Amphitheatre and key riot and protest sites, and, optionally, a video monitor on which the audience may view muted interviews with Yippies. Projected on the podium and the floor directly in front of the podium—slow motion and stop-action scenes from Brett Morgen’s animated documentary of the Chicago 8 trial, Chicago 102; the panelists pause, at intervals, to act out—or rather, act with, re-act (to), comment on via serial tableau vivant--fragments of these scenes, Tom Lavazzi is Professor of English at KBCC-CUNY. -
