This is a quote from a 2017 speech (actually) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vunvFxMLuk
by the eminent internationally acclaimed American philosopher Martha Nussbaum... well known for her work on emotions and politics for many years...
In this talk "The Election of 2016, Powerlessness and the Politics of Blame" she tells of her very recent recalibration of the importance of "fear" (still, she names as an emotion only)... I am so glad she's come to see this... and, I would be pleased to see her continue in this direction, including checking out my work. I have my critiques of some of her basic approach... yet, she is offering valuable emphasis as our challenges as a planet grow intense...
