Ten Years (almost) of Fairness.com
An ongoing crew of interns and I have built an extensive, heavily indexed/categorized database of:
- thousands of articles on almost every conceivable fairness topics — legal, political, personal finance, consumer protection, family relationships, you name it.
- people, publications, and organizations involved in fairness-relevant work or controversies.
Beginning with the 2008 Election our focus has shifted to improving some of the fundamental "cultural infrastructure" that makes it far too easy for the powerful to take advantage of the less powerful. NowComment®, a classroom-oriented software tool that facilitates in-depth, intellectually honest discussion of complex documents, is the first of several such projects.
As our tag line says:
Life isn't fair... but we're working on it.®
I hope you'll find good information here... and even some good opportunities to get involved in our projects.
