The Bolder Boulding Keith Ruckhaus and Alec Tsoucatos

Keith and Alec revisit a theme that has run throughout the series: What will it take to change the narrative away from the neo-liberal economic storyline that has dominated the American psyche for the last 50 years?

Keith and Alec continue their discussion of international trade within the context of steady state economics. They focus on reasonable and practical responses to the problems of globalization.

Alec and Keith discuss the issues of international trade as it relates to the strategies for a steady-state economy.

Alec and Keith discuss population control as another one of the strategies for a steady-state economy.

Keith and Alec expand their discussion of land as "natural capital" in connection with Herman Daley's and Henry George's advocacy toward restructuring tax to natural resources and away from capital and labor.

Keith and Alec continue to explore the critical relationship of land and economics. They explore the notion of ownership and property within the framework of capitalism and rights and the downward spiral of natural destruction, economic inequality, and exclusion of essential elements of life.
