RE THE PUBLIC ROLE OF ACADEMICS
Put another way, my view, of the conflict between co Nobel laureates in economics, is that although theoretically this dispute could be resolved within the discipline of economics, it cannot actually be, as that discipline is constituted, and further, the only way to get beyond such an ostensibly intradisciplinary dispute, to see it in perspective, is from outside economics, to draw on insights from other fields.
Framed within economics, it takes on the character of an insoluble dilemma. Viewed from outside, a pseudo dilemma.
As I have pointed out, from a US perspective, economics turned out to be our own doomsday discipline.
