Thursday, March 12, 2020 POSTPONED: Market Dominance or Climate Justice? Warren versus Sanders on the Green New Deal
Michael Menser, CUNY Brooklyn CollegeOlin, Room 102 4:45 pm – 6:15 pm EST/GMT-5 The Green New Deal changed the contemporary political debate. But what kind of philosophy grounds it? Never before has a mainstream policy framework treated the climate crisis as a global and even existential threat requiring a national commitment not seen since the Great Depression and WWII. Promoted by the Sunrise Movement and officially formulated by Rep. Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Markey, the GND has since evolved, with many candidates having their own versions, including Senators Sanders and Warren. While both have game-changing and justice-enhancing elements in their proposals, the differences are striking and illuminate a major debate about the role of the public in this time of system change. In this presentation, I will look at their proposals from the normative frameworks of economic democracy and climate justice, and argue that one of these views has a much better chance of promoting climate justice than the other. |
