摘要

In september 2005, new york was the site a trio of of save-the-world meetings: the United Nations' World Summit, former Pres. Bill Clinton's Global Initiative, and my own Global Goals confab. All were seeking innovative solutions to such dilemmas as extreme poverty, the greenhouse effect, and political corruption. As we enter the second half of the first decade of this new millennium, it is useful to examine the latest approaches to saving the world that these conferences are recommending: Bi-partisanship. Hurricane Katrina's devastation has become a turning point in what Americans demand of their politicians. The funding of a highway in Alaska that leads to an almost deserted island, rather than building an adequate levee system in New Orleans, has shed direct light on the deadly effects of polarized politics and pork barrel grants. Moreover, the appointment of a friend of a friend of the President to head the Federal government's emergency task force will increase the scrutiny of government employees.
