So only 2 of the 4 Mokyr reasons for the delay of IR remain with us today. Progress! Shock resilience will improve with larger markets. But rentseeking at every level is baked in. That's why interest rates are so low.

Davis Kedrosky Jared Diamond was a liberal by 1997 standards, but by 2023 standards he's too realistic and too white to be Woke. And he's gotten rich off his popular science writing, which drives semi-impoverished cultural anthropologists crazy.

Missed this the first time through, but it's fun to see Oppenheimer thanked in the first paragraph of the acknowledgments to Lawrence Stone's *The Crisis of the Aristocracy*.

Science Is Strategic Noah Smith 🐇🇺🇸🇺🇦 Not really, note that Tsarist Russia had massive population growth, so stagnant GDP per capita does not mean stagnant economy. In fact, Tsarist Russia was undergoing fundamental transformations in its last decades – Witte, Stolypin. See daviskedrosky.substack.com/p/twilight-imp… from Davis Kedrosky

kaiwan Geoffrey Miller Davis Kedrosky 10,000 Year Explosion is one place to start. Cochran addressed some of Diamond’s audacious dogs that didn’t bark in a blogpost too.

Must read. Great work by contributors and editors. I would add to Davis Kedrosky that Chapter 22 (Ashraf et al.) And 28 (Stasavage) do add more than details to our understanding of economics, history, and politics.
