Manage episode 294499936 series 2922800
Key Insights:
* There is a four-day creative-destruction festschrift for Philippe Aghion & Peter Howitt starting June 9: The Economics of Creative Destruction <https://zoom.us/j/98595732585>
* When industrial policy in America has been successful, it has always had a profound political driving motive: maintaining independence, manifest destiny, Sputnik, and so on. The only such driver today—and it is urgent—is green energy to fight global warming…
* The U.S. used to be excellent not just on the “novelty” prong of Breznitz’s prosperity-in-an-unforgiving-world quadent, but also on the “engineering design”, “second-generation innovation”, and “production-assembly” prongs as well. We threw that away in the era Reagan began—the era of neoliberalism, financialization-driven short-termism, and tax cut-driven exchange overvaluation. We need to get those other three prongs back, lest we become a country of technoprinces and dopamine-loop brain-hacked technoserfs…
* When you do industrial policy, you need to think very carefully about what kind of economy you want to create…
* A better retranslation of the Arkhilokhos-Isaiah Berlin “Fox & Hedgehog” tag line is: “The fox knows many tricks; the hedgehog knows one good one…”
* Hexapodia!
