Favorite Economics Blogs: |
||
| Econosseur | Jason Debacker (Georgia) and I run this blog. Our posts focus on current events in economics and economic research. However, one of the more popular sections of our blog site is the economic jokes page. |
|
| Greg Mankiw | Mankiw's (Harvard) blog presents a rare combination of extremely accessible posts that are readable for the lay person, Washington inside experience, and academic credibility. His posts cover a wide range of economic topics. Mankiw is an avowed Keynesian. |
|
| Econbrowser | This is the blog of James Hamilton (UCSD) and Menzie Chinn (Wisconsin). Their analysis is can be more technical than most economics blogs, but they seem to regularly be ahead of the curve. This is a really good macro blog. |
|
| WSJ Real Time Economics |
This is the Wall Street Journal's economics blog site. The analysis is very good, and it often has more opinion than comes out in print. |
|
| Cafe Hayek | This is the blog of two good George Mason economists, Russ Roberts and Don Boudreaux. They provide insightful posts that come from a libertarian ideology. |
|
| EconLog | This is the blog of Bryan Caplan and Arnold Kling. Caplan is an Associate Professor at George Mason University, and Kling is an econ PhD who worked in finance. Their posts have more of a libertarian financial markets focus. |
|
| Marginal Revolution | Two more George Mason economists, Tyler Cowen and Alex Tabarrok, run this blog. Again, the posts focus mainly on libertarian economic issues, and it is a bit more "earthy" than Cafe Hayek. |
|
| Vox | This is a blog site for a number of good economists from the U.S. and Europe. The topics vary widely, but have an international feel to them. |
