in areas in which there has already been a significant shift of policy where we are keeping the pendulumng. i do think that there are significant areas of change. i think on human rights policy our engagement with the human rights council. i think the process of -- i think john help to move the relationship with the icc from hostility to some sort of benign coexistence, i think the term the john hughes is we accept the reality of the court. you know, this did not involve attending the assembly of state parties and meanings. it didn't involve engaging with the aggression conference, aggression issues. those are steps that we are moving toward. i think that a formal statement of recommitment to the geneva conventions is something that we have done. we are taking different approaches in a number of domestic litigation cases. sammons are being one of them. we have reengaged on climate change. our military issues are connected to the president's decisions with regard to withdraw from iraq and a new strategy toward afghanistan. i think our attitude toward the united nations has changed as you

so perhaps the pendulum will ship the other way for sweden again. we will have to see. i think they have an election coming up this spring. >> thank you. i want to thank our two offers, kate pickett, richard wilkinson, the authors of "the spirit level." for those of you who want to get more involved in work on ending inequality, both kate and richard called for a social movement to end in equality. there are many ways you can do this. at the institute for policy studies, we have a program on inequality and the common good which is both helping to bring forward new work like this, but also helping to steer people towards campaigns that both pull up the bottom. there will be many this year, everything from campaigns around the employee free choice act, to anti-poverty pro cairns, as well as campaigns to pull down the topic that will be a lot of initiatives by many groups to pull down the top by raising taxes on the very rich, as well as a series of measures around executive pay. so i encourage you to join us at ips at www.ips d.c. i encourage all to buy this new book am o
