Fascinating! Thanks for this. I tried to point out your 4th bullet point and I’m definitely a little sceptical, since Hickel’s book is clearly a polemic with an agenda, but I think it’s a valuable contribution (like you say).
That said, the ‘this article by Hickel’ link isn’t working for me.
Only vaguely, but it’s an interesting idea. I wonder how I’d do this and what the likely impact would be, particularly as compared to being more directly involved in policy myself.
