Coworking is About Feeling Less Lonely (23:49) Steve King is a partner at Emergent Research who studies the independent workforce and the impact of big data on small businesses. He has extensive consulting, marketing, and general management experience with both large companies and start-ups.  One of the workplace trends that is more common now than ever is working remotely. Although it can be a great way of cutting costs, it also brings with it its share of problems. Recent studies show that remote workers are often lonely, and this, in turn, hurts their productivity. In order to combat the challenges of remote work, employees are beginning to turn to coworking as a solution. Steve King talks about the ins and outs of coworking Why Justice is More Important than the Rule of Law (1:07:57) Klaus Mladek, Ph.D., is a professor of Comparative Literature and German Studies at Dartmouth College and a Public Voices Fellow with The Op-Ed Project. His research focuses on 18th through 20th-century political theory, literature, and law, philosophy and psychoanalysis. Americans are feeling more and more stressed.  A study last year confirmed that people are most worried about the “Future of the nation” and the “current social divisiveness.”   Most people say this is because the rule of law is being ignored.  But what is the rule of law and how does it relate to justice?  Klaus Mladek explains justice versus the rule of law.
