Lengthy and intensive debate will provide the only real opportunity to craft innovative solutions to climate change. We should embrace the deliberative opportunity that Leap provides.</div> <div>After all, by reforming economic practices, Leap anticipates saving both the planet and capitalism. With their anger and denial, however, many respondents treat it as if it were a new Communist Manifesto. And maybe it should be. The problems now are as great as then, as is the resistance to appropriate action.</div> <div>To govern today is still to walk that line between legitimacy and accumulation. For Justin Trudeau and Rachel Notley, that line is a tightrope -- promise political legitimacy by addressing climate change but deliver economic accumulation by building a pipeline to tidewater.</div> <div>On a crowded planet, the success of neoliberalism increasingly undermines its own foundations -- climate change and crashing biodiversity, global inequality and joblessness, endless proxy wars in the Middle East. Financial wealth on Wall Street is indifferent to jobs in the Rust Belt. Anxiety is the global disease of the 2010s.</div> <div>In today's world, success will come to the society and economy that can embrace a critical ''dissensus'' about the future and not just reinforce a tired consensus inherited from the past. That dissensus means talking about an economy, and a democracy, and a discourse very different from the ones we have inherited.</div> <div>http://www.globeadvisor.com/servlet/ArticleNews/story/gam/20160416/RBRIMCKENNACOLUMN </div> </div> <div> <h2>[REFERENCE]</h2> <ol> <li>[2016-04-11] <a href="http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/leap-manifesto-what-is-it-and-what-could-it-mean-for-the-ndpsfuture/article29583796/" target="_blank">Leap Manifesto: What is it, and what could it mean for the NDP’s future?</a> ] by __ @theglobeandmail.com -
