Public anthropology

What they're reading in the white house/state dept.

What they should be reading.

Especially the bit taking down Thomas Friedman.

My favorite bit (not from the book, but the page I linked to Tommy's name):

In his New York Times article, Thomas Friedman challenges the critics of "globalization" to name "a single country that has upgraded its living or worker standards, without free trade and integration." As the above list suggests, every single one of today's developed countries did exactly that. You can file that under "facts you won't hear" from the mainstream media.
