A Failure of Capitalism
This blawg, hosted by The Atlantic, is the means by which 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Richard Posner intends to update his book A Failure of Capitalism: The Crisis of '08 and the Descent into Depression. He writes: "My tentative menu of subsequent entries is (1) adding some depth to my discussion of certain economic issues, and suggesting some additional readings; (2) discussing current plans and proposals for changing the regulation of banking and finance; (3) revisiting the issue of who is to blame for the crisis, (4) responding to critics, and (5) discussing the role of law and law schools in helping the economy to recover. After that—we'll see."
