Where's the vid? I can't find it, unfortunately.

Ideas, interests, and a video
This has been a long-standing concern of mine: what are the respective roles of ideas iand interests in shaping policy outcomes? The most widely held theory of politics is also the simplest: the powerful get what they want. Financial regulation is driven by the interests of banks, health policy ...
I was in Latvia a while ago, too. And, I have to confess, it was really surprising that such a small country is so well-heeled in terms of the economy. Just consider this: the Latvian currency's rate against the Euro (or USD, for that matter,) is staggeringly high. Frankly, I wouldn't expect that of a post-Soviet country!

What I learned in Latvia
I spent a few short days in Latvia last week. My meetings centered on industrial policy, which Latvia is serious about – quite interestingly for a country that is often viewed as a hotbed of conservative economics. But my time there also gave me an opportunity to reflect on the country’s much di...

I won't be so sure that the Dutch could enjoy that as well.
Are Americans better off than the Dutch?
For a lot of questions, comparisons of per-capita GDP yield the correct answer to a first-order of approximation. For example, are Americans richer than the Chinese? A comparison of GDPs per capita, adjusted for PPP differences, yields an unambiguous answer in favor of the U.S. Yes, income may...
Well, if you look at it closely, most of the digital innovations have somehow been stolen. The one with fonts is no surprise, then.

Did Microsoft steal its fonts from the Turkish army?
The Turkish court that sentenced more than 300 officers on coup plotting charges in September apparently thinks so. The Turkish military has long set the ground rules for Turkish politics, and this was hailed as a landmark trial. Many saw it as the centerpiece of a democratic, mildly Islamist gov...
