  • A Revisionist History of Regulatory Capture WILLIAM J
    This chapter will appear in: Preventing Regulatory Capture: Special Interest . Influence and How to Limit it. Edited by Daniel Carpenter and David Moss. Copyright © 2013 The Tobin Project. Reproduced with the permission of Cambridge University Press. Please note that the final chapter from the Cambridge University Press volume may differ slightly from this text. A Revisionist History of Regulatory Capture WILLIAM J. NOVAK A Revisionist History of Regulatory Capture WILLIAM J. NOVAK PROFESSOR, UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN SCHOOL OF LAW The idea of regulatory capture has controlled discussions of economic regulation and regulatory reform for more than two generations. Originating soon after World War II, the so-called “capture thesis” was an early harbinger of the more general critique of the American regulatory state that dominated the closing decades of the 20th century. The political ramifications of that broad critique of government continue to be felt today both in the resilient influence of neoliberal policies like deregulation and privatization as well as in the rise of more virulent and populist forms of anti-statism. Indeed, the capture thesis has so pervaded recent assessments of regulation that it has assumed something of the status of a ground norm – a taken-for-granted term of art and an all-purpose social-scientific explanation – that itself frequently escapes critical scrutiny or serious scholarly interrogation. This essay attempts to challenge this state of affairs by taking a critical look at the emergence of regulatory capture theory from the perspective of history. After introducing a brief account of the diverse intellectual roots of the capture idea, this essay makes three interpretive moves.

  • Frontiers in Applied General Equilibrium Modeling: in Honor of Herbert Scarf Edited by Timothy J
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-82525-2 - Frontiers in Applied General Equilibrium Modeling: In Honor of Herbert Scarf Edited By Timothy J. Kehoe, T. N. Srinivasan and John Whalley Frontmatter More information FRONTIERS IN APPLIED GENERAL EQUILIBRIUM MODELING This volume brings together fifteen papers by many of the most prominent applied general equilibrium modelers to honor Herbert Scarf, the father of equilibrium computation in economics. It deals with new developments in applied general equilibrium, a field that has broadened greatly since the 1980s. The contributors discuss some traditional as well as some newer topics in the field, including nonconvexities in economy-wide models, tax policy, developmental modeling, and energy modeling. The book also covers a range of new approaches, conceptual issues, and computational algorithms, such as calibration, and new areas of application, such as the macroeconomics of real business cycles and finance. An introductory chapter written by the editors maps out issues and scenarios for the future evolution of applied general equilibrium. Timothy J. Kehoe is Distinguished McKnight University Professor at the University of Minnesota and an advisor to the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis. He has previ- ously taught at Wesleyan University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the University of Cambridge. He has advised foreign firms and governments on the impact of their economic decisions. He is co-editor of Modeling North American Economic Integration, which examines the use of applied general equilibrium models to analyze the impact of the North American Free Trade Agreement. His current research focuses on the theory and application of general equilibrium models.

  • Why Is There No Milton Friedman Today? · Econ Journal Watch
    Discuss this article at Journaltalk: http://journaltalk.net/articles/5808 ECON JOURNAL WATCH 10(2) May 2013: 210-213 Why Is There No Milton Friedman Today? Richard A. Posner1 LINK TO ABSTRACT The short answer to the question posed by Econ Journal Watch is that Milton Friedman combined, with enormous success both within the economics pro- fession and in the society at large, three distinct roles. He was an analyst, using conventional analytical methods, of technical issues in macroeconomics, such as business cycle economics (with emphasis on the role of money), inflation and deflation, international exchange rates, and the consumption function. He was an advocate on economic grounds of specific public policies, such as an end to conscription, a negative income tax (of which the Earned Income Tax Credit is a variant, adding a work requirement surprisingly absent from Friedman’s proposal), and school vouchers. And he was a public intellectual/guru/philosopher, ad- vocating in books, magazines, op-ed pages, and electronic media a politically controversial return to libertarian (equivalently, free-market, laissez-faire, classical- liberal) economic policy. Friedman also made an influential contribution to economic methodology in arguing that an economic theory should be tested by its predictive accuracy alone, without regard to the realism or unrealism of its assumptions (Friedman 1953). The argument is questionable because, owing to the difficulty of assessing such consequences (reliable experiments concerning economic behavior are very difficult to conduct), economists have tended to rely heavily—certainly Friedman did—on assumptions, often assumptions based on priors rooted in ideology, personality, or other subjective factors.

PAST EVENT 2018 SEP Day 1: Responding to the Global 11 Financial Crisis What we did and why we did it 'f# Join the conversation on Twitter using #FlnCrlslsLessons ozens of consequential decisions were made by U.S. authorities during and D after the financial crisis of 2007-2009. It is important to understand how and why the elements of the rescue were designed the way they were. In an initiative led by Ben Bernanke, Tim Geithner and Hank Paulson, the Hutchins Center on Fiscal and Monetary Policy at Brookings and the Program on Financial Stability at the Yale School of Management are filling that gap by commissioning papers by individuals who were actively involved in designing the elements of the rescue. The primary objective is to answer the inevitable question that those who fight future financial crises will ask: Why and how did they do it the way they did in 2007-2009? On September 11, 10 years after some of the worst moments of the crisis, some of the authors of the papers presented highlights of their findings in a full-day conference at Brookings. Preliminary versions of some of the papers will be available below as working papers. You can learn more about the project by visiting the Program on Financial Stability at the Yale School of Management. 1 of 10 3/18/2021, 2:12 PM Day 1: Responding to the Global Financial Crisis https://www.brookings.edu/events/day-1-responding-to-the-global-financ..

Photo by Tony Rinaldo. When I speak with new students, I frequently talk about how the “and” in the Yale School of Management’s mission to educate leaders for business and society is an essential and meaningful conjunction. It is a small word, and an easy one to overlook beside its polysyllabic neighbors, but it signals that the most vexing problems confronting us on the planet will require the best ideas across all sectors of the economy and all regions of the world. Our integrated curriculum combines multiple perspectives and academic disciplines to bring organizational challenges into clearer focus. Our community, similarly, brings together people from a remarkable diversity of backgrounds who pursue wide- ranging interests. The power of conjunction is evident every day in the classroom, when students contribute new insights and points of view gathered from experiences around the globe. And the spirit of combination extends to our faculty, whose team- teaching in our courses and scholarly collaboration with colleagues often spans disciplinary boundaries. The result is both a better framework for understanding the most significant and meaningful challenges in the real world and an environment that encourages new ideas.
