Elsewhere

  • A start (see links on the left) of advice to a student interested in how to introduce an evolutionary approach into economics.
  • A podcast severely critical of mainstream economics.
  • A substack post of an avowed creed for neoliberals. I don't think the author has studied the scholarly literature on the topic.

These links do not present a hopeful picture.

Update 13 February 2021:

  • Some obituaries of Michael Perelman.
  • David Pakman on socialism, social democracy, and its difference with democratic socialism. I do not think I have been consistent on the distinction. According to his Wikipedia entry, Pakman studied economics and communications as an undergrad at UMass Amherst.
  • Recent talks by Steve Keen. Sometime in the 1980s, I too discovered if I wanted to learn about economic theory, I would be better off in a library than reading mainstream textbooks.
