miners

The working-class survivors face off against the political upstarts

I’ve spent quite a bit of time in Chile these past couple of months, covering the trapped and now freed miners. The results are here, here, and here.

In my column for the print version of the mag this week I raise some philosophicalish questions about the legal status of the Chilean miners. Take a quote from Wigan Pier, add a chunk of Lon Fuller and some speculation about what might go wrong, and half-bake it for a bit, and presto.
