End Times by Peter Turchin

And then end times by Peter Churchen which kind of gives a sense of why we are in this moment itself and what explains the Trump era um based on essentially um how people probably have felt stuck for a long time and uh it makes me think about how we need a political system that is answering more fundamental questions than perhaps it has so far.

Why Nations Fail by Daron Acemoglu & James Robinson

My absolute top recommendation is why nations fail by Darren Aamagloo and James Robinson. Um the book uh the essential theme of the book is that inclusive political systems create inclusive economic systems.

That little bar

It says how long ago something was said, so you can tell last month from 2014 without doing the arithmetic. Full and green is recent; it drains and cools as the date gets older, and empties completely at about 6 years.

A striped bar means the date itself is an estimate — the source did not carry an exact one. An entry with no date at all gets no bar.
