    Last Emmanuel Farhi’s AER paper. “This ability to combine careful logic with sensitivity to the context .. is probably nowhere harder than in macroeconomics. There are few in any generation who can do it with Emmanuel’s panache, and our field is much less interesting without him”

    People will not trust economists as long as they believe economists’ main job is to forecast. It is not. Nurses and doctors do not forecast. They try to prevent problems and heal. So do economists.
