    Mieke Meurs: On teaching heterodox and feminist economics

    In today’s episode we challenge mainstream economics from some heterodox perspectives, particularly feminist economics. Professor Mieke particularly critiques neoclassical price theory, the interplay between policy-making and the public, and how we should teach these aspects. We go on to talk about the issue of predicting of cost in extreme cases, such as climate change, as well as whether GDP captures welfare. We end the inspiring talk on issues related to family choice and cultural preferences. References: Anderson, E. (2012). Epistemic justice as a virtue of social institutions.

    Michael Douma: On Economic History and the slave owning Dutch New Yorkers

    What happens when two old friends meet at a conference and one of the them is an economic historian and the other is an economist who loves history? Well, they start to talk shop and you are invited to listen along. Today’s conversation with Michael Douma, Associate Research Professor and Director of Georgetown Institute for the Study of Markets and Ethics, touches on a wide range of subjects of interest to our listeners, from the relevance of economic history to slave-owning Dutch New Yorkers.  References: Burke, P.

    US Healthcare: A dismal state? with Michael Cannon.

    Want to reveal partisanship? Try mentioning US Healthcare. Is there a more debated complex subject where actual knowledge is such a scarcity? Helping us make sense of it all, we are joined by Michael F. Cannon, who is the Cato Institute’s director of health policy studies. His scholarship spans public health; regulation of providers and drugs; employer-sponsored and other private health insurance; federal programs like Medicare and Medicaid, medical malpractice litigation; administrative law, and finally, international health systems. Cannon is “an influential health-care wonk,” according to the Washington Post, and Washingtonian magazine named Cannon one of Washington, DC’s “Most Influential People” in the last four years. He has appeared in too numerous to mention international news outlets. We are also joined by Karsten Bo Larsen, head of research at CEPOS, to offer some Danish comparisons. Recorded in June at CEPOS, Copenhagen. References: Cannon, M. F. (2023). Recovery: A Guide to Reforming the US Health Sector. Cato Institute.  Cannon, M. F., & Tanner, M. D.

    EconRoots Talk - Christopher Coyne on Peace

    What is peace? Many are so blessed by it, we can take it for granted. However, peace is as, if not more, complex than conflict and war. In this episode, we talk with one of the most prominent peace-economists;GMU’s Christopher Coyne. What does peace do? What does it look like? Is it even a binary construct? After all, is a boxing match not an illustration of peaceful violence? Once you open up the construct of peace a whole world of intellectual inquiry follows, and here Professor Coyne is likely your best guide. References: Coyne, Christopher J.

    EconRoots Talk – Professor Jerry Z. Muller on capitalism

    Professor Muller is one of the most well-read and insightful thinkers on capitalism. In this episode, we talk about the phenomenon of capitalism, what it is, and why people misunderstand it. From here, our insightful talk moves on to the aspects of self-interest and pro-social behavior. We also talk about the tyranny of matrixes, conservative critiques of capitalism, and finally, Jews and their unique relation to commercial society. Smith, A. (1776).

    Nobel laureate Eric Maskin on mechanism design, Arrow and the world

    Today marks a milestone in the history of EconRoots as a podcast. While we have already been blessed with guest appearances from some of the best economists in the  field, today we have our first nobel laureate the esteemed Eric Stark Maskin. While we will deal with Maskin important contributions in a later ordinary episode, we are very thankful to Maskin and Copenhagen Business School for awarding us time together doing  his spring 2023 visit. Maskin is is an American economist and mathematician. He was jointly awarded the 2007 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences with Leonid Hurwicz and Roger Myerson "for having laid the foundations of mechanism design theory".[3] He is the Adams University Professor and Professor of Economics and Mathematics at Harvard University.   In season 1 (Danish) we reviewed the history of economic thought before WWII. The coming seasons are dedicated to the Nobel Prize in Economics, and I am joined by economist Otto Brøns-Petersen. The Nobel prize is a good benchmark for how the field and profession of economics developed after WWII. We will focus both on the scientific contributions and on the people behind them. These are all star economists and worthy of your time and attention. Some will mainly feature in one episode, others in several. We therefore advice that you listen in the thematic order we propose – but it is up to you. Rest assured, we will cover all… Eventually.   References: Maskin E, Sen A. The Arrow Impossibility Theorem. Columbia University Press; 2014 pp. 168.

    Rationality of Rational Choice

    Economics model human behavior within the construct of rationality, but what is rational behavior? In this episode we meet Herbert Simon who shows that instrumental rationality is likely not as smart as bounded rationality, at least from a modeling point of view. He also shows that organizations matter for what is to be considered rational behavior. From here we move to Gary Becker the great proponent of the use of rational choice to almost all areas of the human experience, including the family and crime. We end wth Mirless who shows us that lack of information can lead to moral hazard even without opportunistic intent.   In season 1 (Danish) we reviewed the history of economic thought before WWII. The coming seasons are dedicated to the Nobel Prize in Economics, and I am joined by economist Otto Brøns-Petersen. The Nobel prize is a good benchmark for how the field and profession of economics developed after WWII. We will focus both on the scientific contributions and on the people behind them.
