I sound like a broken record (young people will not know how a broken record sounds, let alone what a ‘record’ is) but I gave a talk at the New School for Social Research today on how jobs and growth are linked in many countries across the globe. On a personal note: It was difficult not to ‘feel verklempt’ giving a talk at New School–Robert’s Heilbroner’s “The Wordly’s Philosophers” is probably why I became an economist.
