In the News (Thu 31 Dec 09)

  
  Abba Lerner
Lerner subsequently became perhaps the first economist outside that charmed inner circle to truly grasp the meaning of Keynes's General Theory and, as a result, became also one of the leading pioneers of the Keynesian Revolution.
Lerner stressed the importance of achieving efficiency by the P = MC rule, and that these could be achieved by socialism or free markets.
Lerner was perhaps the first to recognize the importance of accounting for inflation in Neo-Keynesian theory and laid out his analysis in a remarkable series of articles and books (1944, 1947, 1949, 1951, 1972).

 Barbara Lerner on al Qaeda on National Review Online
The real al Qaeda — the al Qaeda that attacked us on September 11, the al Qaeda we are hunting in Pakistan and Afghanistan right now — is a dangerous enemy, but it's not the only al Qaeda.
There's another, equally dangerous al Qaeda: the mythical, ten-foot-tall al Qaeda we create when we give the group credit for every major terrorist attack, everywhere in the world, heedless of evidence that, in many cases, points elsewhere.
Al Qaeda is active in Iraq, but Hezbollah is too and is as least as dangerous because it is a proxy for Iran and Syria, the two states with the most to fear from a free Iraq.
