For your expanded list, you might consider giving my macroeconomic balance sheet visualizer another look as a potential addition. I've taken away the 'draft' label, improved the text from the initial draft, and added a basic step-by-step walk through.<br /><br />A handful of people have told me they found it very helpful while learning MMT, though I understand it's more technical than works for some.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-2728173056320858912011-04-20T00:24:46.519-04:002011-04-20T00:24:46.519-04:00Thanks for the heads up, John. I added your "...Thanks for the heads up, John. I added your "Inflation: What Really Causes It and What We Truly Have to Fear" to the list above. <br /><br />I'm in the process of assembling other lists to add to the MMT wiki that is under development. Your work will get plenty of exposure there.Tom Hickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08454222098667643650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-40723011454720037622011-04-19T15:44:42.388-04:002011-04-19T15:44:42.388-04:00Tom, I don't know how it fits in to what you a...Tom, I don't know how it fits in to what you are building, but my blog (the original, not the Forbes one) was designed to explain the economy from an Post Keynesian perspective to my online gaming friends. It's NOT just MMT, as the latter is part of broader Post Keynesian thought, so it may not be appropriate. But, here is a summary:<br /><br /><br />MAIN PAGE<br />http://rommeldak.wordpress.com/<br /><br /><br />ROOTS OF THE FINANCIAL CRISIS<br />This starts with the following post:<br />http://rommeldak.wordpress.com/2009/01/09/1-production-takes-time/<br /><br />However, it is in total a series of 13 posts/mini lectures, all of which are listed in reverse order (because that's what blogs do!). So, when I had written them all I collected them in a single document, found here:<br />http://www.econ.tcu.edu/harvey/blog/summary.pdf<br /><br />There's a lot more, but I suspect that the above is more relevant. It's part and parcel of my constant complaint that the underlying instability of the macroeconomy needs to be a core part of the discussion.<br /><br /><br />Again, this stuff may not fit, but I thought I'd make you aware of it.<br /><br />JohnJohn Harveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03555187626769532267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-65953061681378257602011-04-17T20:24:33.058-04:002011-04-17T20:24:33.058-04:00Thanks for the additions to the list, Joe. My list...Thanks for the additions to the list, Joe. My list is meant to be a "starter" list. I didn't include many other valuable resources that are available, since I wanted to hone the list for newbies to MMT. These are the things that I think that people just coming to MMT should look at first in order to get the lay of the land.<br /><br />Down the line perhaps there should be some thinking about organizing an introductory curriculum with a prioritized list of readings. I just put things up alphabetically in this list.<br /><br />There is a something for both non-economists and economists, and a middle that is accessible to most people with some background in economics and finance.<br /><br />I did not include Pragmatic Capitalism and Trader's Crucible, for instance, since they are more market oriented, although I did list Cullen's excellent intro to MMT at Pragmatic Capitalism. <br /><br />I did not include things that push particular policy options either, since I don't want to give the impression that MMT takes a politically oriented policy stance. The list emphasizes the descriptive over the prescriptive or normative.Tom Hickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08454222098667643650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-52326725020716995022011-04-17T14:18:10.994-04:002011-04-17T14:18:10.994-04:00Great list, Tom.
