In other words, reasoning is used when you infer one claim on the basis of another. For example, if you see a great deal of snow falling from the sky outside your bedroom window one morning, you can reasonably conclude that it’s probably cold outside. Or, if you see a man smiling broadly, you can reasonably conclude that he is at least somewhat happy.

  • Europe in the Time of Covid-19
    Europe in the TimeEurope of Covid-19 There is no doubt that the Covid-19 crisis represents a challenge for European unity and another crash test for the euro. Europe has been, Europe in the Time and will likely remain, one of the most Covid-infected regions in the world and, while doing nothing was not an option and would itself have disrupted economic activity, the forceful reactions of national of Covid-19 governments to the pandemic, through various strategies combining social distancing, testing/quarantining and lockdowns, have triggered an economic crisis at least twice the size of the 2009 crisis. Furthermore, the recovery is likely to be slow due to depressed consumption and Edited by Agnès Bénassy-Quéré investment, and it will require fast reallocations in both the labour market and the capital market. and Beatrice Weder di Mauro A small positive observation in this crisis has been the degree of engagement of economists in an intense debate with policymakers on the appropriate responses to ‘flatten the economic recession curve’ and to safeguard the most impacted groups from the economic fallout of the health crisis. This eBook is an illustration of the intense effort of the academic community during this time. In a selection of columns, analysis and policy proposals that were published on VoxEU between the end of March and the middle of May 2020 it provides a remarkable example of the response of economists to the unfolding crisis and of the value of VoxEU as the platform for such high quality exchange of views. Within each section, the articles are sorted by their date of appearance, which gives the reader a sense of how the debate progressed over a short period of time.

Thanks to all the students who contributed to the discussions in the Fall 2011 offering of that course, which produced this issue.

But in the end, it has all been worth it. This project was an enormous undertaking, and would not have been possible without the support of my committee, professors, friends, and family. First and foremost I must thank my thesis advisor and chair of my committee Allen Fogelsanger for meeting with me weekly for a year, discussing directions I might go in and conclusions I might reach, as well as keeping my feathers fluffed about the import of my work. His corrections to my work were invaluable, as was his realistic approach to knowing how to pare my research down to a reasonable size. I am forever indebted to Jim Self for allowing me to take his course Hip Hop, Hollywood, and Home Movies as a first-semester freshman, where I was introduced to the academic study of Hip-hop dance, and first learned how to B-boy.
