Heavily disagree Le Monde Diplomatique or Voltaire Network are just infinitely better for acquiring a better macro perspective of the world, if anything Economist is just renowned for bounding the scope of debate
- crazygringo 5y agoWow, "infinitely" better? That's quite a strong opinion. But I'm curious how you think they give a "better macro perspective"? Is it in the range of stories covered, and so what kind of stuff do they cover that the Economist doesn't? Or is it the "debate", and I'm curious what positions you don't find in the Economist? Especially since their articles are very often in dialectical format, presenting competing interpretations of events as seen from the different sides involved in an issue. I mean it's true they're not going to apply a European democratic socialism lens to American political issues... but then they're looking at European issues through a European lens.
