For @TheIdeasLetter I wrote about Marc Bloch and the challenge of writing synthetic and structural history. Featuring the Annales, Pirenne, Keynes, fin de siècle social science, and the generalizing ambitions of Carlo Ginzburg and the micro-historians.

5/12 Mehrling (2006): interest rates cannot substitute for the credit system. Banks, liquidity, balance sheets, and monetary hierarchies matter. A theory that abstracts from these relationships may explain an interest-rate rule without explaining financial capitalism.

Such terrible terrible news that Perry Mehrling has passed. Hard to describe how much he taught us all. And such a wonderfully curious interlocutor.
I recently returned to his brilliant & mischievous "Financialization and its discontents". Great primer. sites.bu.edu/perry/files/201…

By a weird coincidence this just came out, as scheduled for the past weeks.
I managed to squeeze a mention to Perry’s passing and a dedication at the end of the acknowledgment note in the cover page right before it was scheduled to come out. A tiny homage

I’m told Perry Mehrling has passed away. His money and banking course at Barnard was hugely formative for me and many others.
This is an awful year for social thought. And I’m afraid we’re not producing many people of that caliber who can fill the ranks.

Can we imagine a world without money? We talk to economists J.W. Mason and Arjun Jayadev about their book Against Money, challenging conventional ideas about debt, finance, economic power and the possibility of a post-money society.

Gestern habe ich ein Papier von Anwar Shaikh geteilt, mit dem man ihn gut kennenlernen kann. Heute erinnere ich mich an "The US-China trade imbalance", wo er mit @IsabellaMWeber in eine zentrale Debatte interveniert hat, noch bevor sie ganz ausgebrochen war.

Mit seinem Tod ist das Interesse an Anwar Shaikhs Ökonomie wieder erwacht - gut.
Ein erstes Papier, das sein Denken und seine unglaubliche Begabung Wissen zu vermitteln darstellt ist "The First Great Depression of the 21st Century".
Ich hab das Papier unten verlinkt.

Anwar Shaikh ist gestorben. Er war der wohl wichtigste lebende antikapitalistische Ökonom – weil er den Kapitalismus verstanden hatte. Und er hat dieses Wissen an Generationen weitergegeben.
Das Foto hab ich 2023 auf einer Party in der @NSSRNews gemacht.

All well and good but the latter is at least to some extent a quantitive claim about relative prices (the price of what labour can produce in terms of what it can buy).

ANWAR SHAIKH DIED...
I am devastated to share that Anu died tonight. I can't say anything more at the moment

Mhm, das ist definitiv die beste Art und Weise für eine Gesellschaft ihre öffentlichen Angelegenheiten zu regeln. Das sieht nach einem sehr vernünftigen Verfahren aus.

I don't wanna sound flippant, but if there is a "crisis" in bond markets, central banks have the tools to fix it (even even you don't like those solutions...).
worry about the shit they cant fix

Das hier ist wahrscheinlich eher ein Fall von "das gibt es schon gar nicht mehr"
