Anthony DiGiorgio, DO, MHA Matt Bruenig The New York Times For contingent academic faculty, the summer is not slow, but you still don't get paid or have insurance.

Anthony DiGiorgio, DO, MHA Matt Bruenig The New York Times If I had suffered a traumatic brain injury, I would have been cared for by the university hospital - until my contract expired in May. I'd have then been on my own until a new contract began in September. You think this is a good system?

Anthony DiGiorgio, DO, MHA Matt Bruenig The New York Times As I said before, we don’t get “summers off.” The nature of the work changes, but the volume does not. The system is exploitative by design, and would be illegal in every one of our peer countries.

Anthony DiGiorgio, DO, MHA Matt Bruenig The New York Times And (once more) like I said before, this employment model is used by basically every university. There is nowhere else to go. Anyway I am done with this; you need to work on your reading comprehension.

If you're in Chicago on August 7th come to our event discussing "Nordic Socialism" (University of Wisconsin Press) with William Banks and Pelle Dragsted. Will be reviewing for Damage Magazine pilsencommunitybooks.com/events/20250807


The Nordic countries show that growth and redistribution can and should be mutually reinforcing, argue Pelle Dragsted and William Banks vis-a-vis Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson’s “Abundance.” compactmag.com/article/abunda…


We've tried to contribute with a Nordic 🇩🇰🇸🇪🇫🇮🇳🇴 perspective on the Abundance agenda. See our review in COMPACT With William Banks: I'm looking forward to further debate! Geoff Shullenberger, Matthew Schmitz, Ezra Klein, Derek Thompson, Matt Bruenig, Joe Guinan, Isabella M Weber

Christian Britschgi Danish growth rates are roughly equivalent to U.S. rates. For the current year, Denmark is significantly ahead: imf.org/external/datam…

Niels Jespersen Pelle Dragsted Ezra Klein Derek Thompson De er meget kritisk overfor Bernie Sanders; faktisk sammenligner de Sanders-programmet til Trump of Trumpisme, fordi begge to er eksempler paa "scarcity thinking."

Briahna Joy Gray Sandeep Vaheesan Isabella M Weber Aaron Regunberg Ezra Klein Thanks so much for this, Briahna!!! If you are interested, Pelle Dragsted and I have published yet another takedown of the book, focusing on the curious absence of redistribution from the Abundance dumbgenda: compactmag.com/article/abunda…

My review of "Nordic Socialism" by Pelle Dragsted is out with Damage Magazine damagemag.com/2025/06/04/clo…
