Ett meta-inlägg och ett boktips

Jag bloggar lite mindre just nu, märker jag. Det beror nog på att 2009 utnämnts - av mig själv - till färdigställandets år. Projekt ska tas från 80-procent klara hela vägen till CVt (alt papperskorgen). (Vissa projekt startar snarare, får väl erkännas, från 30% klara...)

Bloggande är komplementärt till forskning i början av projekt, inte lika komplementärt i slutet. Tills vidare bjuder jag på ett boktips:
Violence and Social Orders

'Why do we obey laws, adhere to rules, and conform to norms? Doug North, John Wallis, and Barry Weingast offer a simple, powerful, and compelling answer – disorder and the violence it entails. This book is must-reading for anyone serious about the origins of social order and the reasons for its disintegration.' Stephen Ansolabehere, Harvard University

'A masterful and revealing interpretation of how ‘nasty, brutish, and short’ became healthy, wealthy, and peaceful and why the transformation occurred in some nations but not in others.' Claudia Goldin, Harvard University

Ser lovande ut. Weingast gästade f ö EconTalk för ett tag sedan, och diskuterade liknande ämnen.
