While I have you, could you recommend any other essays from the new inquiry?

but of course.

they really do produce a lot of great content, without some kind of narrow focus i'm not quite sure what i should recommend.

i particularly love their weekly "Sunday Reading" feature even though it's not exactly original content. my favorite TNI blog is probably Socialism and/or Barbarism by Evan Calder Williams, though he often spends a lot of time talking about obscure Italian films that I'm not really interested in.

one semi-recent article that i think was particularly deserving of exposure was Aaron Bady's The Sovereign Double-Standard

the article that got me into TNI is not actually even from TNI, it's from ECW's old independent SaoB blog before he signed on: An Open Letter to Those who Condemn Looting. i initially discovered TNI when he stopped posting independently and linked to his new place.
