Alexander Hamilton and the Climate Crisis
Manage episode 272119098 series 20984
As much of the American West burns, where should leftists struggle in order to halt the worst effects of global warming? Christian Parenti believes, since time is in short supply, that we have no choice but to use the existing institutions of the U.S. state. And to do that, he argues, we should draw lessons from an unexpected source: Alexander Hamilton, one of the founding fathers of the United States.
