My session at the AEA

My session at the AEA: "

As noted in the last post, I’m rushing to get a second edition of Debunking Economics published this year, so I’m trying to finish the manuscript by the end of this month. As a result I’ll be circumspect on posts for the next few weeks, but there are a few I have to put up–including the sessions at the AEA.


My own session was organized by Fred Moseley and (click on the names to download the papers) had David Colander, Paul Davidson, myself and Amitava Dutt as speakers, with Benjamin Friedman, Robert Gordon and Kevin Hoover as discussants.


My presentation:

Paul Davidson start



Paul Davidson continued plus my talk

Amitava Dutt continued plus start of Friedman as discussant



Friedman as discussant



Gordon as discussant



Kevin Hoover as discussant



The format and 2 hour time limit didn’t allow a lot of time for replies by speakers, and I only stated the bare bones of my reply to Hoover. There’s a lot more I’d like to say, but I don’t have the time now-perhaps I’ll get a chance in replies to questions once people have seen these talks.
