The Future Oil War

James K. Galbraith

A chapter in Unbearable Cost, 2006, pp 62-64 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Let me state in passing my view that UT’s President Faulkner should not have attacked my colleague Bob Jensen in the early days following September 11, for Jensen’s hot objections to the use of US military force in Afghanistan (and elsewhere). True, Faulkner’s words didn’t bother Jensen much, and no concrete steps were taken against him. But, given Faulkner’s position, he may have sent a signal to others on campus, less secure in their jobs than Bob is, and this is something that a university president should always avoid.
