This is really worth the time. If you read between the lines from Hardin at the beginning to her call to restructure post-WW2 multilateralism at the end, it’s clear that the US will not be able to make the needed changes with its current political and judicial frameworks. If you doubt that, just look at the dysfunctional relations between the feds and the states during the pandemic — including the GOP’s ongoing multipronged efforts to control the government by any means necessary. Radical changes will be needed, from crushing rightist insurgents to a profound restructuring of limitations on liability. The [Green New Deal] is great, but it’s civil — we also need a vision that’s just as ambitious but focuses on criminal law.
