"China getting wealthier is not a bad thing for the United States and the world. It has made trillions of dollars of goods available at a lower cost than they otherwise would be, raising living standards of people around the world."

En el nuevo orden de la ley del más fuerte, no alinearse con 🇺🇸 en política exterior conlleva un riesgo de represalias. El factor miedo está llevando a países a abandonar sus posturas por instinto de supervivencia.

Rather than blindly embracing startup culture, governments should examine past efforts to modernize and reform public services in areas like digitalization and urban development, @IIPP_UCL's @MazzucatoM and Rainer Kattel write. https://t.co/GPagzKsb1a

Another super relevant paper on tariffs!

"The Macroeconomics of Tariff Shocks" by Adrien Auclert, Matthew Rognlie, and Ludwig Straub.

"We study the short-run effects of import tariffs on GDP and the trade balance in an open-economy New Keynesian model with intermediate input trade."

The authors find that tariffs likely cause a recession.

"Unilateral tariffs do tend to improve the trade balance, but when other countries retaliate the trade balance worsens and the recession deepens. Taking into account the recessionary effect of tariffs dramatically brings down the optimal unilateral tariff level derived in standard trade theory."

New paper with @mw_econ on Fiscal Stagnation.

Key insights: 1) High public debt may push the economy into fiscal stagnation, i.e. a persistent state of low growth and high fiscal distortions. 2) Pro-growth policies are crucial to exit stagnation, but they require credibility.

We're constantly told how countries are run by the elites.

However, mapping the economic elite has been incredibly tough to do.

But now, a new dataset compiled by 70+ researchers provides data on over 3,500 elites in 16 countries:
