Forget the current government shutdown. Economists say it's the upcoming deb

About half of the 22 economists surveyed by CNNMoney say a recession will be
unavoidable if Congress fails to raise the nation's debt ceiling before the
Treasury runs out of cash later this month.
A couple more say a recession is possible depending on how far past the dead... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 6973 | 4 On Dec. 2, 2010 (cover date Dec. 4) Economist magazine published a special
report on China's place in the world.
(1) Leaders: Global power l The Dangers of a Rising China; China and
America are bound to be rivals, but they do not have to be antagonists.
http://www.economist.com/node/17629709?story_id=17629709&CFID=156449107&CFTOKEN=36351422
My comment:
(a) "Leaders"--located at the first several pages of each issue--is the
equivalent of a summary in Economist.
(b) No need to read the report.

如如果事件的 value-neutral 政治经济坐标是 (x,y),economist 差不多会是 (x+2,y+

by Mark Montgomery and Irene Powell
Grinnell College
It is increasingly common these days for
young economists to choose a spouse from among their
fellow graduate students. This is not surprising.
Romances bloom naturally in graduate school for the
same reason that lifelong friendships form in places
like Dunkirk and Iwo Jima. Is it a good idea for two
economists to marry? We, the authors, have logged

Don't you think in most of time,(especially when people are discussing hot

much contribution to the pool of ideas.
Economists should care non-economists' ideas only when they are highly
