I love writing book reviews. They’re still a place where you can debate ideas, something that’s becoming a bit rarer in academia. OEconomia is especially great for this.The editors give us plenty of room to engage fully with the books we review.
A good day for #nokings
Very proud of this (open-access) paper with Valeria Morea in which we develop a theory of co-production, grounded in economic theory, particularly household production.
We sift through the many definitions, and specify precisely when co-production is likely to work!

Our illustrations all come from the (performing) arts, we inquire for instance why crowd co-production might or might not work, and how credible commitments like 'the encore' can contribute to audience co-production.

Hayek famously proposed that the economist should act more like a gardener than the artisan or craftsman. In this week's post I discuss Frank Knight's critique of the gardener metaphor (formulated quite a few decades before Hayek made his arguments).

There were two US citizens in the car. They were apprehended and detained for “obstructing” ICE by honking their horn to let people know ICE was in the neighborhood.
This week's post at Seeing Like Chicago is about Saul Alinsky, the famous community organizer and author of Rules for Radicals. To my surprise, he studied crime, hanging out with Al Capone's gang, while studying sociology around 1930.
