http://theoutsidereconomist.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-dismal-science.html

Book reviews, musings and thinkpieces. Tuesday, August 18, 2015. MUSING] The Dismal Science. Economics is commonly called 'the dismal science.' Why is that? Is it the field's notorious unreliability in prediction? The spectre of Malthusianism? The dreary nature of discussing monetary policy? The utter, existential grayness of the men who study it? The cold reduction of the world into numbers and figures? You see, Thomas Carlyle's tract supported the idea that slavery should be reintroduced to the Caribbe...

Book reviews, musings and thinkpieces. Tuesday, August 18, 2015. LINK] Block-Chain Transactions and Contract Law. On Technological Unemployment, I talked about how the coming age of automation will strike at all jobs, high-skilled and low-skilled. I didn't give many specifics in that essay, but this article. By Quartz is a perfect example of what I was talking about. If contract law isn't safe from being taken out of human hands, what is? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A Bit More Detail.

The Outsider Economist: [LINK] Mushroom Markets

http://theoutsidereconomist.blogspot.com/2015/08/mushroom-markets.html

Book reviews, musings and thinkpieces. Monday, August 24, 2015. Normally, I dislike the treatment of markets as natural, rather than intrinsically human, phenomena. However, the subject of this article. By Quartz is something altogether different. Biological symbiosis as a market- with induced scarcity and profiteering to boot. Altogether fascinating- I wonder what other biological interactions may in fact resemble a market? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Populism and the Politics of Health.

Book reviews, musings and thinkpieces. Wednesday, August 19, 2015. ESSAY] The Kasparov Effect. I'm sorry Frank, I think you missed it.

The program, when confronted with no optimal solution, merely chose one at random from all possible moves...

The Outsider Economist: [LINK] Political Consumerism in the 19th Century

Book reviews, musings and thinkpieces. Tuesday, August 18, 2015. LINK] Political Consumerism in the 19th Century. Political consumerism is probably the main avenue of political expression for young Americans today- which is telling, in part, of just how tied up in the market system our culture is. Organic, free-range, Fair Trade, Green, everything has a label that can make you feel good just by buying it. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Populism and the Politics of Health.
