Oeconomia oder die ewig wachsende Schuld des Geldes
Genial surft Carmen Losmann die Lernkurve des Geldes Die 2009 Krise machte die Filmemacherin neugierig. Kuriosität im Rücken, macht sie sich auf die Reise. Da war Sie nicht die einzige. Auch ich gehöre zu einer seither massiv gewachsenen Kohorte neuerer Geldforscher. Neuere Geldforschung Losmann's Erkenntnistrip hat allerdings was besonderes. Statt akademische Experten oder Geldreformer zu … Continue reading Oeconomia oder die ewig wachsende Schuld des Geldes
The Economist : Korsett der Schwarzen Null raubt der Ampel den Atem
The Economist's Sonderbericht zu "Deutschland nach Merkel" hat was besonderes. Deutsche Medien lesen hier eine "eiskalte Kritik" an deutscher Selbstgefälligkeit und Reformunfähigkeit. Doch letztere sieht The Economist heutzutage in der polarisierten US, Brexitland und praktisch weltweit. Was hier überlesen wird ist dass im Gegensatz zu den relativ hoffnungslosen Anglo Ländern Deutschland als Tragigkomödie daherkommt... >>>Bild klicken um weiterzulesen<<<

De facto MMT disequilibrating DSGE ?
Turns out Peter Bofinger is not the only German economist who can see MMT across the sea. There is at least one other. Maybe more to follow? "Say it quietly, but Germany has learnt the lessons of Keynes," argues Thorvaldur Gylfason. Mind you, he is talking fiscal largesse, not ECB money. In the "we are … Continue reading De facto MMT disequilibrating DSGE ?

When Andrew Gwynne objects: "But that was a joke..." does that … Continue reading One or two of the 85%?
The Nobel Poor
One reason to celebrate this year's prize is that it went to a woman, albeit shared with two men. Professor Duflo is only the second ever female economist to get the chance to feel humbled by this ultimate gong. The first was Elinor Ostrom in 2009. Funnily enough, history may well judge Ostrom's work on … Continue reading The Nobel Poor
