Nobel Laureates Joseph Stiglitz, Michael Spence to Co-Chair Independent Commission on Global Economic Transformation

The effort will be led by Nobel Prize-winning economists Joseph Stiglitz and Michael Spence. As an independent entity, the Commission on Global Economic Transformation (CGET) is the first commission of its kind, initiated at a critical moment for the global economy. As political and economic populism sweep across the developed world, developing countries are searching for paths to prosperity, and people around the world are struggling with the challenges posed by widening inequality, technological disruption, and climate change. These problems are compounded by the ineffectiveness of current policy tools in many contexts, raising questions about the role of the state, of civil society, and of individuals along with national and international governance frameworks.

Economic Growth and Investment
Economic Growth and Investment Through the challenges of the pandemic to individuals, communities and businesses around the world, we have found reason to be encouraged and optimistic about the future. The current and next generation of entrepreneurs around the globe are building networks of transformative organizations, changing perceptions of innovation, societal progress and fundamentally, the growth of intrinsic value. As pioneers of growth equity, General Atlantic has a long history – spanning more than 40 years – of empowering companies to reach new levels of growth and scale to tackle global challenges. The new generations of entrepreneurs each bring a dynamic growth mindset and innovative opportunities to their communities, which spur economic and societal growth. We are proud to partner with them. Our latest paper from Nobel Laureate and General Atlantic Senior Advisor Dr. Michael Spence explores the drivers behind the shift to inclusive global growth. Dr. Spence addresses the macroeconomic impact of the pandemic, the sectors likely to experience significant growth in the coming decade as a result, and the impact on global entrepreneurship. With the release of this piece, we are proud to be formally launching the General Atlantic Global Growth Institute. Through this platform, we will seek to advance conversations around what we believe to be the critical drivers of global growth today: innovation, entrepreneurial dynamism and societal contribution to both local and global communities. Led by Dr. Spence and with forthcoming contributions from thought leaders across our firm’s network, the GA Global Growth Institute will also examine the dynamic between our own work in supporting entrepreneurs in scaling businesses, and broader societal impacts, including digital enablement, financial inclusion, access to healthcare and education, and sustainability.

Particu- larly in capital intensive industries, capacity decisions have long lead times and involve commitments of resources may be large in relation to firms' total capitalization. If the firm fails to add capacity at the ..S10. appropriate time, it not only loses immediate sales and market shares but also may diminish its long-run competitive position—if the firm adds too muchcapacity, it can be burdened with unmet fixed charges for long periods of time. From a competitive standpoint, additions to capacity can ia of posemajor problems since the matching of capacity to demand is often a major determinant of industry rivalry and profits. The problem is most acute in industries producing standardized products, where product dif- ferentiation does not protect firms against mistaken capacity decisions of others.

Alibaba Initiates the Open Research Platform “Luohan Academy”
Alibaba Initiates the Open Research Platform “Luohan Academy” Six Nobel Laureates, other top international minds to address societal changes arising from digital technologies Hangzhou, China, June 27, 2018 – Alibaba Group Holding Limited (“Alibaba Group”) (NYSE: BABA) has advocated the establishment of the “Luohan Academy” (“Academy”), an open research platform with Nobel Laureates and leading international social scientists to address universal challenges faced by societies arising from the rapid development of digital technologies. The Luohan Academy complements Alibaba’s DAMO Academy, a global research program established last October with a focus on developing cutting-edge technologies. Digital technologies are fundamentally changing markets and economies with the potential to improve mankind's prospects in many ways. The Luohan Academy will focus on examining the implications that technologies will bring to the societies in the future. “The advancement of technology is coming at us at dazzling speed and it has changed almost every aspect of human society. So when we look at the benefits from technology, it is equally important to understand the challenges we faced and how we can work together to address them,” said Jack Ma, Executive Chairman of Alibaba Group. “We feel the obligation to use our technology, our resources, our people and everything we have to help societies embrace the technological transformation and its implications. This is why we initiated an open and collaborative research platform, the Luohan Academy, and invite top international thinkers to join this collaboration,” added Ma. During the first conference held in Hangzhou this week, the committee of the Luohan Academy convened and signed the mission statement.

Book Reviews on Global Economy and Geopolitical Readings Esadegeo, Under the Supervision of Professor Javier Solana 4 and Professor Javier Santiso
Book Reviews on global economy and geopolitical readings ESADEgeo, under the supervision of Professor Javier Solana 4 and Professor Javier Santiso 1 Animal Spirits: How Human Psychology Drives the Economy, and Why It Matters for Global Capitalism George A. Akerlof and Robert J. Shiller (2009), Princeton University Press. In a great many We will only come to have real insight into major economic events if we face the fact that their causes are mainly of a psychological nature. For government, acknowledging the importance of animal spirits represents the opportunity to reformulate its participation in the economy. Without government intervention, the economy will undergo massive fluctuations. The time has come to take into account that what enables capitalism to work are the regulations that ensure that when citizens invest their money in the market, take out a mortgage or buy a car, they receive a product with certain guarantees. Basic idea and opinion Animal Spirits explains how the central premise of orthodox economic theory today – that all the individuals who participate in the economy are always driven by economic motives and that their behaviour is always rational – is radically mistaken. The authors show, rigorously and systematically, that many economic activities are governed by what Keynes called “animal spirits”: stimuli that are not economic as such, and decisions that are not purely rational. Only if we bear in mind these five “animal spirits” can we give the right answers to fundamental questions posed by economic theory. 2 The authors George A. Akerlof (1940) is a US economist and professor at UC Berkeley.

Course Information
ECON 452: Senior Seminar Sweet Briar College, Fall 2012 Sherry Forbes Gray 317 T/R 1030-1200 434.381.6177 [email protected] j j j Course Information Description The original will of Alfred Nobel (1895) established Nobel Prizes in only five fields - physics, chemistry, medicine or physiology, literature, and peace - and the Prize continues to be considered one of the most prestigious awards for advances in those fields today. But in 1968, the Sveriges Riksbank established a Nobel Prize in the field of Economic Sciences, establishing an award for economists who "have during the previous year rendered the greatest service to mankind." But why economics? Nobel Prizes were not originally established for any field in the social sciences, so why was economics the only one to get a Nobel Prize? What is this "service" that economists provide, and what is the relevance of this "science of economics" for today’s problems? These are the questions we are going to address in this seminar as we study the contributions of the Nobel laureates. Specifically, we are going to examine 1.) the development of modern economics through the contributions of the Nobel Prize winners in economics, and 2.) how those ideas influenced (and continue to influence) every day life and how we think about the "big ideas" of today. Economics is not a "settled" discipline - the development of economic ideas and of economics as a science has not been neat, organized, or even at times very coherent. Why is there so much controversy? Much of the debate, of course, revolves around the appropriate role for government and how much we should rely on free markets or government intervention to solve society’sproblems.
