How can we live together in peace, prosperity, and harmony, while retaining our liberties as autonomous individuals who can, and must, create our own values? First Week at PERC. Arrived Sunday afternoon, settled in and promptly started grading final exams! Weather: about what you’d expect in Montana in early May chilly with bits of rain off and on. Again: what an amazing essay that is! Look for a blog on that over the weekend! Posted by Ross B. Emmett @ 5/13/2005 02:08:00 PM. The notion of intelligent de...

How can we live together in peace, prosperity, and harmony, while retaining our liberties as autonomous individuals who can, and must, create our own values? Hike to the "M". I finally hiked up to the "M" ( see picture. Posted by Ross B. Emmett @ 7/08/2005 05:49:00 PM. More on Africa and Live 8. Bruce's comments (see comments below) came on the heels of an email from Fernando Leon regarding China - Africa relations, giving me a chance to respond to both. Bruce is right that stable property regimes aren't.

How can we live together in peace, prosperity, and harmony, while retaining our liberties as autonomous individuals who can, and must, create our own values? I’m sitting in the Mill Woods Evangelical Missionary Church in Edmonton, AB, during the rehearsal for Trevor and Keri’s wedding tomorrow. They’re getting instructions about standing and walking, and all that stuff. Posted by Ross B. Emmett @ 6/24/2005 10:37:00 AM. And, more recently,. Along with getting Dave's research into shape for publication thi...

How can we live together in peace, prosperity, and harmony, while retaining our liberties as autonomous individuals who can, and must, create our own values? While continuing to work on my Malthus paper, I am also taking some time in these last couple of weeks at PERC to interview a few of the PERC fellows who did their graduate education in economics at the University of Chicago. These interviews will become part of my Chicago Economics Oral History Project. Last Friday, the pelaton passed fairly close ...

How can we live together in peace, prosperity, and harmony, while retaining our liberties as autonomous individuals who can, and must, create our own values? Punctured Tires and Writing. Haven't blogged the last several days because I'm deep into sorting out a good way to present my thinking on the project I'm writing this summer: "Is there a Malthus that Julian Simon could like? Imagine my chagrin that afternoon when I came out of PERC at about 4:30 and found the back tire on my bike flat! PERC is begin...

How can we live together in peace, prosperity, and harmony, while retaining our liberties as autonomous individuals who can, and must, create our own values? The Other Canadian at PERC. When I arrived at PERC in early May, I meet many of the PERC staff and fellows. It took awhile, however, for me to learn that one of my new associates was also a Canadian. In fact, he is from Alberta! A picture of Herb A. Vore appears below. As you realize by now, Herb is a Canadian moose. Terry Anderson. Herb A. Vore.

How can we live together in peace, prosperity, and harmony, while retaining our liberties as autonomous individuals who can, and must, create our own values? Malthus v. H.G. Wells. Who do you think the aliens are in. War of the Worlds. In a similar vein, modern day neo-Malthusians, like Paul and Anne Ehrlich, call for some kind of "conscious cultural evolution," in which humans adapt themselves to what they belive to be the ecological catastrophe awaiting us. Neo-Malthusians actually share more with ...

How can we live together in peace, prosperity, and harmony, while retaining our liberties as autonomous individuals who can, and must, create our own values? Marriage and Alberta (and of course Malthus fits in). The fact that we've gotten to this point suggests that David Levy was right about Malthus' success in radically re-writing our understanding of marriage. Within the Christian world (with a few exceptions, the major one being the Roman Catholic church! Ross B. Emmett. And am an editor of Research ...

How can we live together in peace, prosperity, and harmony, while retaining our liberties as autonomous individuals who can, and must, create our own values? We drove to Camrose, Alberta from Bozeman on Wednesday. Uneventful drive, although the drive on MT Hwy 86 from Bozeman over to Hwy 89 was beautiful, as was the drive up Hwy 89 through White Sulphur Springs, Niehart, and Monarch (the Lewis and Clark National Forest) was beautiful. Then we drove the long, lonely and straight Hwy 36 in Alberta. I've sp...
