  • Keeping the Lid on the Financial Pressure Cooker

    Open AccessCraig FreedmanARTICLERethinking Marxism2019Cited by: 1References: 1

    Satyananda Gabriel sees the world from his own unique and informed perspective. China and its persistently oblique financial system present a conundrum that resists facile explanations. This essay, initially presented by proxy at the Eighth International Conference of Rethinking Marxism, reflects on Dr. Gabriel’s approach to unraveling the mysteries of Chinese financial development

  • Where Economics Went Wrong

    Open AccessDavid Colander, Craig FreedmanBOOKWhere Economics Went Wrong2018

    Milton Friedman once predicted that advances in scientific economics would resolve debates about whether raising the minimum wage is good policy. Decades later, Friedman's prediction has not come true. This book argues that it never will. Why? Because economic policy, when done correctly, is an art and a craft. It is not, and cannot be, a science. The book explains why classical liberal economists understood this essential difference, why modern …

    Kyoko Hatakeyama, Craig Freedman et al.BOOKSnow on the pine2010

This paper tries to make sense of this alternative approach to trade policy by carefully distinguishing free trade from free trade agreements. The motivation for the first approach is largely economic, while politics is the key driver behind the latter. In particular, large economies find it simpler to impose their objectiv…

  • Why Did Japan Stumble? Causes and Cures

    Richard Katz, Richard S Katz et al.ARTICLEJournal of Japanese Studies2001

    In this text, commentators on the Japanese economy analyze both the immediate and long-term causes that make a sustained economic recovery in Japan problematic. They debate the deep-rooted structural causes of Japan's decline and assess Japan's faltering financial system before prescribing policies to abate the continuing crisis. Starting with Japan's unanticipated collapse in the 1990s, the volume's contributors try to fathom the way forward for…
