  • A Statement Signed by More Than 600 Economists
    CAP & TRADE ECONOMIST STATEMENT As Congress addresses the challenges of global warming, the undersigned economists support market-based solutions for reducing carbon and other greenhouse gas emissions. If Congress pursues a carbon cap-and-trade program, we believe 100 percent of the credits should be sold at auction to help ensure the most efficient and equitable outcome. Conversely, the free allocation of carbon credits to emitting industries under a cap-and-trade program would undermine the program’s long-term success: Free allocations will do little or nothing to protect families and businesses from higher energy costs. Free allocations will represent a significant and undeserved windfall to utilities and other greenhouse gas producers. Free allocations will deny the government the necessary resources to reduce the economic cost of combating climate change, and will thus generate needlessly high costs of achieving any reduction target. For these reasons, we oppose the free allocation of credits to emitting industries under a carbon cap and trade program and support auctioning 100 percent of the credits immediately.

It provides an introduction to noncooperative game theory, developing methods for analyzing how people make decisions when their consequences are influenced by other peoples' decisions, and showing how to use those methods to analyze strategic and informational questions in microeconomics. The course will meet from 12:45 (promptly)-2:35 on Tuesdays and Thursdays in Economics Room 300, with the first class on Tuesday, April 2. My office hours will be 2:00-3:00 on Wednesdays in Economics 319, but you can also see me at other times, preferably by appointment. Other information will be announced and posted on the class web page at http://weber.ucsd.edu/-vcrawfor/econ200C.htm. also reachable through the Department's page: http://www.econ.ucsd.edu/classes/. An html version of my midterm and final exams from 1999- 200 I is available on the class web page; this differs in unimportant ways from the original, printed versions, some of which are on reserve in the Department. There are no formal homework assignments, but it is strongly recommended that you do at least the textbook problems recommended at the end'of each section of my lecture notes, also available on the course web page. Students have two enrollment options. Those whojust want to hear the lectures should enroll SIU; there will then.be no formal requirements. Those who want a grade should enroll for one; their grades will be based on a midterm (40%) in class on Thursday, May 2; and a final (60%) during exam week.

  • Edmond Malinvaud's Criticisms to New Classical Economics
    Edmond Malinvaud’s Criticisms to New Classical Economics: Restoring the Rationale of the Old Keynesians’ Stance – Matthieu Renault1 – Abstract The standard narrative of the history of macroeconomics usually depicts macroeconomics in a state of crisis during the 1970s, but it rarely goes into its details. The standard narrative basically states that Robert Lucas and his followers took the stage, arguing persuasively that Keynesian macroeconomics and the Neoclassical Synthesis had no sound microfoundations. Then, the standard narrative suggests that the breakdown of Keynesian macroeconomics occurred without any trouble or resistance. Instead, it heavily insists on the long-lasting conflicting period that opposed New Keynesian and New Classical economists. And yet, other voices, different from the New Keynesian’s, did oppose New Classical Economics in the 1970s and afterwards. These dissonant voices owe to the old generation of Keynesian economists (James Tobin, Robert Solow, Lawrence Klein, Franco Modigliani, among others), who could easily be labeled “Old Keynesians” (Tobin, 1992, 1993). Edmond Malinvaud, another Old Keynesian figure, sheds light on the rationale of the Old Keynesians’ stance to New Classical Economics through his criticisms. First, since Malinvaud took early part in the search for microfoundations, his criticisms were more informed about modern achievements in macroeconomics. Second, Edmond Malinvaud’s criticisms overlapped and comprised all of the Old Keynesians’ arguments. In this article, I argue that studying Edmond Malinvaud’s criticisms shows that the Old Keynesians’ opposition to New Classical Economics was multidimensional, since it incorporated theoretical, empirical, methodological, and epistemological concerns. In this sense, the Old Keynesian approach in macroeconomics is seen as irreducible and incompatible with that promoted by New Classical Economics.

  • Characterization, Existence, and Pareto Optimality in Markets With
    Characterization, Existence, and Pareto Optimality in Markets with Asymmetric Information and Endogenous and Asymmetric Disclosures: Basic Analytics of Revisiting Rothschild-Stiglitz Joseph Stiglitz, Jungyoll Yun, and Andrew Kosenko Abstract: We study the Rothschild-Stiglitz model of insurance markets, introducing endogenous information disclosure about insurance sales and purchases by firms and consumers. We show that a competitive equilibrium exists under unusually mild conditions, and characterize the unique equilibrium outcome. With two types of consumers the outcome is particularly simple, consisting of a pooling contract which maximizes the well-being of the low risk individual (along the zero profit pooling line) plus a supplemental (undisclosed and nonexclusive) contract that brings the high risk individual to full insurance (at his own odds). We show that this outcome is extremely robust and constrained Pareto efficient. Asymmetric equilibrium information flows with endogenous consumer disclosure are critical in supporting the equilibrium. (JEL D43, D82, D86) Some forty years ago, Rothschild and Stiglitz (1976) characterized equilibrium in a competitive market with exogenous information asymmetries in which market participants had full knowledge of insurance purchases. Self-selection constraints affected individual choices; but unlike the monopoly equilibrium1, no single firm framed the set of contracts among which individuals chose. There never existed a pooling equilibrium (in which the two types bought the same policy); if there existed an equilibrium, it entailed the high risk getting full insurance, and the low risk individual only getting partial * Stiglitz: University Professor, Columbia University, Uris Hall, Room 212, 3022 Broadway, New York, NY 10027 (email: [email protected], cc: [email protected]); Stiglitz is the corresponding author.

  • An Open Letter from 1,470 Economistson Immigration
    An Open Letter from 1,470 Economists on Immigration Dear Mr. President, Majority Leader McConnell, Minority Leader Schumer, Speaker Ryan, and Minority Leader Pelosi: The undersigned economists represent a broad swath of political and economic views. Among us are Republicans and Democrats alike. Some of us favor free markets while others have championed for a larger role for government in the economy. But on some issues there is near universal agreement. One such issue concerns the broad economic benefit that immigrants to this country bring. As Congress and the Administration prepare to revisit our immigration laws, we write to express our broad consensus that immigration is one of America’s significant competitive advantages in the global economy. With the proper and necessary safeguards in place, immigration represents an opportunity rather than a threat to our economy and to American workers. We view the benefits of immigration as myriad: • Immigration brings entrepreneurs who start new businesses that hire American workers. • Immigration brings young workers who help offset the large-scale retirement of baby boomers. • Immigration brings diverse skill sets that keep our workforce flexible, help companies grow, and increase the productivity of American workers. • Immigrants are far more likely to work in innovative, job-creating fields such as science, technology, engineering, and math that create life-improving products and drive economic growth. Immigration undoubtedly has economic costs as well, particularly for Americans in certain industries and Americans with lower levels of educational attainment. But the benefits that immigration brings to society far outweigh their costs, and smart immigration policy could better maximize the benefits of immigration while reducing the costs.

  • INFORMATION and the CHANGE in the PARADIGM in ECONOMICS Prize Lecture, December 8, 2001 By
    INFORMATION AND THE CHANGE IN THE PARADIGM IN ECONOMICS Prize Lecture, December 8, 2001 by JOSEPH E. STIGLITZ Columbia Business School, Columbia University, 1022 International Affairs Building, 420 West 118th Street, New York, NY 10027, USA. The research for which George Akerlof, Mike Spence, and I are being recog- nized is part of a larger research program which, today, embraces hundred, perhaps thousands, of researchers around the world. In this lecture, I want to set the particular work which was sited within this broader agenda, and that agenda within the broader perspective of the history of economic thought. I hope to show that Information Economics represents a fundamental change in the prevailing paradigm within economics. Problems of information are central to understanding not only market economics but also political economy, and in the last section of this lecture, I explore some of the implications of in- formation imperfections for political processes. INTRODUCTION Many years ago Keynes wrote: The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly un- derstood. Indeed, the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who be- lieve themselves quite exempt from any intellectual influences, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist. Madmen in authority, who hear voices in the air, are distilling their frenzy from some academic scribbler of a few years back. Keynes [1936]. Information economics has already had a profound effect on how we think about economic policy, and are likely to have an even greater influence in the future.
