    About this ebook

    A collection of 64 essays, written between 2002-2008, primarily about economics (theory versus 'actually existing capitalism' through various topics including economic growth, business cycles, globalization and monopoly power, and political science (theory versus 'actually existing democracy' through various topics including constitutional government, emergency powers, and civil liberties).

    The geographic focus is the English-speaking nations of the Northern Hemisphere, primarily the U.S. A significant reason for setting this time frame is that it corresponds to a period when the author was experiencing his own 'darkness at noon.'
