26 dec 2025 at 11 41 posted in statistics econometrics comments off on the real tasks of social science and regression analysis after mastering the technicalities of regression analysis and econometrics students often feel as though they are masters of the universe i usually bring them back down to earth by assigning christopher achen s modern classic interpreting and using regression this tends to put them back on track helping them to understand that no increase in methodological sophistication alter the fundamental nature of the subject it remains a wondrous mixture of rigorous theory experienced judgment and inspired guesswork and that finally is its charm and in case they become too excited about having learned to navigate the intricacies of proper significance tests and p values i also ask them to reflect on achen s warning significance testing as a search for specification errors substitutes calculations for substantive thinking worse it channels energy toward the hopeless search for functionally correct specifications and diverts attention from the real tasks which are to formulate a manageable description of the data and to exclude competing ones share on

politics society 4 comments when a liberal society faces the question of granting spe cial privileges immunities and political autonomy to one cultural group it cannot compromise on fundamental human rights furthermore those who understand liberal democracy as itself a way of life grounded in a distinct moral faith cannot in good conscience agree to allow schools or the government to suppress the democratic way of growth and transformation the democratic way conflicts with any rigid idea of or absolute right to cultural survival the democratic way means respect for and openness to all cultures but it also challenges all cultures to abandon those intellectual and moral values that are inconsistent with the ideals of freedom equality and the ongoing cooperative experimental search for truth and well being it is a creative method of transformation this is its deeper spiritual and revolutionary significance steven c rockefeller culture identity ethnicity gender and religiosity should never be accepted as a basis for intolerance in political and civic aspects in a modern democratic society people belonging to these different groups must be able to rely on society to protect them against the abuses of intolerance all citizens must have the freedom and right to question and leave their own group against those who do not accept this tolerance we must be intolerant in sweden we have long embraced multiculturalism if we mean by multiculturalism that there are several different cultures in our society this does not pose a problem then we are all multiculturalists however if we mean that cultural identity and affiliation also entail specific moral ethical and political rights and obligations then we are discussing something entirely different then we are talking about normative multiculturalism and accepting normative multiculturalism also means tolerating unacceptable intolerance as normative multiculturalism implies that the specific cultural groups rights may be given higher priority than the citizens universal human rights and thus indirectly become a defence for these groups potential intolerance in a normative multiculturalist society institutions and regulations can be used to restrict people s freedom based on unacceptable and intolerant cultural values normative multiculturalism like xenophobia and racism means that individuals are reduced unacceptably to being passive members of a culture or identity bearing group but tolerance does not mean that we must have a relativistic attitude towards identity and culture those who in our society show in their actions that they do not respect other people s rights cannot expect us to be tolerant of them those who use violence to force other people to submit to a specific group s religion ideology or culture are themselves responsible for the intolerance they must be met with in sweden all women and men have equal value and everyone living in sweden must respect this sweden is an open country part of the global community but it is also a country that firmly asserts that the gains we have achieved in terms of equality openness and tolerance over centuries are non negotiable people who come to our country enjoy these rights and freedoms but with these rights and freedoms also comes an obligation everyone without exception must also accept that in our country there is one law the same for everyone rule of law if we are to safeguard the achievements of a modern democratic society society must be intolerant towards people and organisations that promote intolerance in a modern democratic society the rule of law must prevail and apply to everyone against those in our society who seek to force others to live according to their own religious cultural or ideological beliefs and taboos society must be intolerant against those who want to compel society to adapt laws and regulations to the interpretations of their own religion culture or group society must be intolerant cultural heritages and the forms of life articulated in them normally reproduce themselves by convincing those whose personality structures they shape that is by motivating them to appropriate productively and continue the traditions the constitutional state can make this hermeneutic achievement of the cultural reproduction of life worlds possible but it cannot guarantee it for to guarantee survival would necessarily rob the members of the very freedom to say yes or no that is necessary if they are to appropriate and preserve their cultural heritage when a culture has become reflexive the only traditions and forms of life that can sustain themselves are those that bind their members while at the same time subjecting themselves to critical examination and leaving later generations the option of learning from other traditions or converting and setting out for other shores jürgen habermas share on facebook opens in new window facebook share on x opens in new window x share on

understryker riksbankschef erik thedéen att han har farhågor om hur framtida underskott i statsbudgeten framledes ska kunna komma att hanteras han kritiserar hanteringen av det finanspolitiska ramverket och efterlyser en återgång till balans i de offentliga finanserna detta är ett flagrant överskridande av det mandat han har som riksbankschef när riksdagen 1998 beslutade om ändringar i regeringsformen och riksbankslagen gjorde man riksbanken formellt och konstitutionellt oberoende från regering och riksdag i penningpolitiska beslut tanken var att man beslutsmässigt skulle ha mer eller mindre vattentäta skott mellan finans och penningpolitik något som thedéen uppenbarligen nu tar sig frihet tolka som att han som ytterst ansvarig för penningpolitiken har mandat att offentligt föra fram synpunkter på hur finanspolitiken ska bedrivas mot bakgrund av thedéens utspel borde kanske ku bjuda in honom för klargörande samtal om han har för avsikt att riva upp den normpolitiska

myten om staten som ett hushåll statens betalningar skapar de medel som sedan används av privata aktörer för att betala skatter och köpa statspapper staten är självfinansierad i sin egen valuta staten är ju ensam utgivare och kan därför omöjligen låna samma pengar som bara den kan skapa staten är således finansiellt obegränsad i sin egen valuta och kan alltid operativt köpa allt som är till salu i svenska kronor den verkliga begränsningen uppstår när vi närmar oss taket för vad ekonomin klarar att leverera i form av arbetskraft materiel och produktionskapacitet obegränsat med kronor hjälper inte om det inte finns sjuksköterskor järnvägstekniker eller byggmaterial att köpa för dem det är därför jakten på finansiella överskott och förmögenheter leder fel om politiken felaktigt utgår från att staten först måste ha en förmögenhet och beskatta eller låna innan den kan investera låser vi fast oss i onödiga spärrar vi accepterar arbetslöshet eftersatta skolor och bristande klimatinvesteringar trots att vi har både människor och teknik som kan göra jobbet sverige har alla finansiella resurser som behövs för en snabb omställning och en stark välfärd just för att staten är utgivare av den flytande valuta som vi betalar skatt i frågan är inte om pengarna finns utan hur vi använder vår förmåga att skapa pengar utan att driva upp inflation eller slå i reala flaskhalsar den diskussionen kräver att vi lämnar föreställningen om staten som ett hushåll som först måste ha pengar innan det kan spendera om vi verkligen vill krossa myten om den fattiga staten behöver vi förklara öppet och pedagogiskt att staten aldrig får slut på kronor men att den kan få slut på sjuksköterskor lokförare och byggarbetare vi behöver flytta fokus från finansiella saldon till reala resurser

mention power 21 dec 2025 at 16 37 posted in economics 2 comments the intransigence of econ 101 points to a dark side of economics namely that the absence of power speak is by design could it be that economics describes the world in a way that purposely keeps the workings of power opaque history suggests that this idea is not so far fetched the key to wielding power successfully is to make control appear legitimate that requires ideology before capitalism rulers legitimised their power by tying it to divine right in modern secular societies however that s no longer an option so rather than brag of their god like power modern corporate rulers use a different tactic they turn to economics an ideology that simply ignores the realities of power safe in this ideological obscurity corporate rulers wield power that rivals or even surpasses the kings of old are economists cognisant of this game some may be most economists however are likely just clever people who are willing to delve into the intricacies of neoclassical theory without ever questioning its core tenets meanwhile with every student who gets hoodwinked by econ 101 the rockefellers of the world happily reap the benefits blair
