I strongly recommend you to take a look to this very interesting work by Alessandra Fenizia and Saggio Raffaele which is a forthcoming paper on the American Economic Review. Full article here: https://lnkd.in/dezEqvDn

This very elucidating book with title “Vienna - how the cities of ideas created the modern world” - hard to read and near to 400 pages - written by Richard Crockett, an ECONOMIST editor, and published in 2023, points excellently out how brains from Vienna shaped culture, business and economics in the world, mainly the US and UK. A short survey article, kind of an abstract of this book, had been published by THE ECONOMIST in its Christmas issue of 2016 under the title “How Vienna produced ideas that shaped the West” (likely also authored by Richard Cockett?): https://lnkd.in/dGpwHmdb #vienna #richardcockett #theviennacircle

Today, I am excited to share insights from the book "The Long Economic and Political Shadow of History, Volume III: Europe and the Americas" edited by Stelios Michalopoulos and Elias Papaioannou. This seminal work delves into the enduring impact of historical events on our modern economic and political landscapes. The book offers a deep dive into the causal relationships between past events and current economic outcomes, shedding light on how colonial origins, factor endowments, and historical institutions continue to influence economic development. Through rigorous econometric analysis, the authors reveal the persistent pattern of historical influence on economic performance. Moreover, the research explores the critical interplay between institutions and cultural traits, showcasing how cultural shifts, like the Protestant Reformation's impact on work ethics, can shape economic trajectories. By understanding these multifaceted influences, we gain a more nuanced perspective on the ongoing narrative of history in shaping our world today. "The Long Economic and Political Shadow of History, Volume III" challenges us to rethink traditional economic models and emphasizes the importance of integrating a historical lens into our analysis of contemporary issues. This insightful work prompts us to uncover fresh perspectives that can inform better policies and contribute to a more equitable and prosperous future.
