Ominous Economic Distress In India: No Buying Power, No Jobs, Rising PricesRecently released estimates of India’s economic output show that people are not spending enough. The only reason this can be is because they do not have sufficient income, and their buying power is limited. On the other hand, prices of all essential commodities are increasing at a disturbingly high rate. This will further restrict spending. Industrial production has grown at snail’s pace, and with people not having enough to spend, demand will continue to be low and industrial output too will languish. Bank credit for large industries is growing very slowly. So, prospects of any c... read more

Rewriting the Rule for RightsJoseph Blass The right to an abortion is not the only constitutional rule rewritten in the leaked draft opinion for the upcoming case *Dobbs v.

The opinion insists that reversing *Roe v. Wade* and *Planned Parenthood v.

Elif Batuman’s Either/Or is a portrait of the artist as a young idiot
Either/Or by Elif Batuman. | Left: Penguin Press. Right: Valentyn Kuzan. Batuman’s second novel is shaggy, strange, and sweet. *The Idiot*, Elif Batuman’s charmingly deadpan debut novel of 2018, was unconventional as coming of age stories go. The protagonist, Selin, took very few concrete actions, and at the end she informed us that she “hadn’t learned anything at all.” *Either/Or*, Batuman’s follow-up to *The Idiot* and a direct sequel, shares its predecessor’s dryly understated wit, but it does so with a far more conventional structure. By the end of *Either/Or*, Selin has defin... read more

Stop telling kids that climate change will destroy their world
[image: A student holds a poster reading “why the fuck are we studying for a future we won’t even have.”] Student protestors in Rome as part of the September 24, 2021 Climate Strike March | Simona Granati/Corbis via Getty Images Some “climate anxiety” is the product of telling kids — falsely — that they have no future. My 5-year-old daughter is now old enough to read a lot of books and magazines aimed at children, and it’s given me a whole new perspective on the discourse wars over how we talk about climate change, conservation, and the future of the planet.

Trump supporters storm the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, in Washington, DC. | Samuel Corum/Getty Images The committee’s evidence against Trump could well be damning. It still might not be enough to overcome polarization and public fatigue. In his new book *The Right*, conservative journalist Matthew Continetti describes the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot as the decisive event in Donald Trump’s presidency: one that transformed it from what he sees as a largely successful enterprise into a disastrous one. “If Trump had followed the example of his predecessors and conceded power gra... read more

[image: Question marks with a black background.] The economy is (probably) not as bad as you feel. | Getty Images/MirageC Is the economy actually bad, or does everyone just feel like it is? Elon Musk recently told Tesla executives he has a “super bad feeling” about the economy, so he wants to pause hiring and cut the company’s workforce. This is perhaps not the best way to run a business, but it is indicative of the current mood — a lot of people have a sense that something’s just off in the economy, or it’s about to be. There’s this nagging sentiment that we’re in a precarious s... read more

Wartime “Tears” in Russia
*Russian citizens marching on May 9, 2019 in St Petersburg* ZOBOKO.COM Most Americans today believe “we defeated Nazi Germany,” as President Obama wrote on the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II. It is a misconception fostered by Hollywood films that portray the US landing at Normandy in June 1944 as the beginning of the destruction of Hitler’s Germany. In truth, America won the war in the Pacific, against Japan, but the Soviet Union fought and destroyed the Nazi war machine on the “Eastern Front” almost alone from 1941 to 1944, from Moscow, Kursk, and Stalingrad... read more
