...globalization for the financial crisis. However, what we need is more, not less, globalization—Michael Dawson, a political science Professor at the University of Chicago, devised the term “linked fate,” a concept in which interdependence, which is similar to globalization, is key to promoting group interests above individual interest. In determining public policy, powerful social concepts such as linked fate can be very useful for coming up with practical and sustainable solutions. To remedy the financial whooping cough Americans are going through, policy experts, banks, municipalities, and individuals should form...
...stop talking and look at me until I left, and the worst is a laundry list of misadventures that I can only imagine. I spent a lot of time and I asked a lot of people, sometimes very brazenly.

"I can remember anecdotally where we had questions for our team in Pakistan at one point and they couldn't get a hold of their ISI counterparts because they were too busy attending funerals of their key leadership," says a U.S. counterterrorism official. This, along with the militants' brazen capture of a town some 40 miles (65 km) from the Pakistani capital last spring, did more than any American finger-wagging to convince Islamabad that the TTP needed to be taken down. The U.S. helped by mounting...
