S2: It’s all in a name: Green New Deals or Environmental and Social Justice?
Update: 2020-06-14
Description
As we all prepare to move into a new socially distanced world, Carola and Rich debate how exactly the economy should be rebooted. Introducing the theme of the season, they are already dithering when deciding on the name of the theme, or is it about concepts? They cover a short history of the term “Green New Deal” and explore some of the existing tensions between different political views on what a Green New Deal should include and what it shouldn’t. In preparation for a season of dissecting various contemporary Green New Deals, they set themselves up to be the contemporary connoisseurs of the diverse flavours of GND’s. Like fine wine, some are delightful, and some just cheap and cheerful. So stay subscribed to experience the GND cellar of fine dealing.
