Important essay in @TheEconomist on China’s new innovation regime and industrial policy.

In The Prince and the Wolf, Latour explained that three years after the publication of Irreductions, he embarked on a multifaceted exploration of regimes of enunciation that, more than 15 years later, culminated in a book that appears as Latour’s

“In their flight toward the future, the Moderns are absent to themselves” Profoundly grateful to @AimeTim for his essays on katechon and for leading me to wonderful essay by Erik Bordeleau on debate btw @BrunoLatourAIME and Donna Haraway about apocalypse

When the concept of the katechon is handled by contemporary theorists, it takes on a disappointingly conservative hue. . . . There seems to be little room for political activisms that might challenge the status quo. Tim Howles on the eschaton and political theology

Hi Tim these are fabulous essays. Only wish there were hyperlinks! @GenofMod ?? Can you point me to where @BrunoLatourAIME says "We shouldn’t deprive ourselves of the resources of Christian apocalypse”? Thanks … GREAT read.

Religion, and the apocalyptic motifs of the Christian Gospels, is that which alone can send us back into the world with a renewed strength for political engagement and activism. Tim Howles on the eschatological roots of political renewal

China’s currency has been unaffected by the Ukraine crisis. Nice article by @KangHexin & @Tabby_Kinder [link] Pairs well with Chartbook #94 on the impact of Ukraine on the Sino-US balance.

this is really important. The Ukrainians planned ahead of this to disconnect from UES and put the grid in autonomous mode on 24th February, a date that was publicly announced twitter.com/C_Barraud/status/1498266847719964672

What was I saying earlier about the value of twitter … Read this short thread on Ukraine’s energy system and allow your mind to expand to a really different vision of what is going on here. So great! h/t h/t h/t @yorksranter @C_Barraud @kamilkazani

Can the EU and Poland step back from the brink? Under pressure of Ukraine crisis, Warsaw shows some flexibility. Really helpful long read this from @Sam1Fleming @jamieshotter

Tariffs on Chinese imports have raised costs for US consumers and firms, but to a modest degree compared to the current rate of inflation.

It would seem like a good idea to remove tariffs on US imports from China as an anti-inflation measure. But how much difference would it make? Disappointingly little! Great work by @PIIE Kadee Russ
