This Week: Hip Heterodoxy by Chris Hayes
Welcome to the TPMCafe Book Club! This is where we regularly invite authors to come and discuss their most recent works with readers and invited commentators. Past Book Club authors include Thomas Frank, Anthony Shadid, Larry Diamond, George Packer, Ivo Daalder/James Lindsay, Robert Dreyfuss, Chris Mooney, Gene Sperling, Gershom Gorenberg, Peter Beinart, Kevin Phillips, Sidney Blumenthal, Reed Hundt, Anne-Marie Slaughter/John Ikenberry, Jonathan Cohn, Daniel Gross, and Steven Cook.
This week we'll be discussing Chris Hayes' feature article for The Nation "Hip Heterodoxy."
In the article, Hayes shows the tensions that exist between those who practice and defend neoclassical economics, those who challenges its formulations, and the growing ways in which the categories blur.
Debating and discussing Hayes' argument will be James Galbraith, Tyler Cowen, Max Sawicky, Nathan Newman, David Warsh, Diane Coyle, Thomas Palley, David Ruccio, Mark Thoma, and Paul Krugman.
