Terrific essay. The leftist student leader turned president Gabriel Boric had a great line—”Chile was the cradle of neoliberalism, it wI’ll also be its tomb.” Statist experiments in copper, lithium and green hydrogen… how are they going? What can others learn? www.phenomenalworld.org/analysis/lit...

This report makes clear just how deep the hubris of Biden-era climate champions was in proclaiming the IRA various versions of "the largest climate action ever." The Biden administration never even considered anything on the scale of what China has been doing — both abroad and at home.

Alas, no. Google specifically does not index datasets in google scholar (they do have a separate dataset search, but that's of little help for the scholar profile). GS also doesn't care about DOIs one way or the other, FWIW.
