Keeping space free and peaceful, on "Corporations and Democracy"

7/11/2018

0 Comments

 
Do we need a new stand-alone branch of the military to ensure that the US dominates space or is our military-industrial complex big enough already? President Trump's proposed "Space Force" has its critics inside government and even within the military, but even more so among activists, with few better able to weigh in on this notion than Bruce Gagnon, chair of Global Network Against Weapons and Nuclear Power in Space.

Bruce joins Steve and Annie on this edition of "Corporations and Democracy" to discuss how activists around the world are pushing back on both the privatization and the militarization of space and planets. He's joined in the second half of the show by Dennis O’Brien, an attorney, former member of the NASA-Hastings Law Project, and founder of the the Space Treaty Project.

Tuesday's edition of "Corporations and Democracy" radio was a great, heartening talk with Gar Alperovitz, author, activist, historian and political economist, and co-founder of the Democracy Collaborative. Take an hour to hear about how a new economic system, neither centrally-planned state socialism nor investor-oriented capitalism, is quietly emerging across the US and the world. Coops, worker-owned businesses, public banks, B corporations, and new applications of renewable energy technology are all steps forward to reorienting economic activity toward the good of people and planet. 

You can listen to or download the show from the "Recent Shows" page on this site, or hear previous shows on the Archives page. For more information about the Democracy Collaborative's Next System Project, click here.
