Anwar Shaikh’s brilliant teaching and scholarship helped an entire generation understand the inner logic of capitalism. He will be missed not only by colleagues and students in the field, but by the countless people whose understanding of the world was enriched by his work.

The 2018-2019 US-China trade war created jobs -- in Brazil. In line with Brazil’s pattern of comparative advantage, employment and wages rose in the regions more exposed to Chinese tariffs on US exports, but U.S. tariffs on Chinese exports did not affect Brazil’s labor markets.

This is how it’s done. Absolutely textbook. China is executing the energy transition to near perfection. The Trump administration on the other hand gets an F. The geopolitical implications from this distinction will be enormous.
