Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What Chinese rule will actually look like | Dr. Dave Kang
Q: But how did that work?
The system involved two main practices: the exchange of tribute missions to secure diplomatic recognition and a pattern of mutual recognition that established legitimacy and facilitated trade, with the more powerful side extending material and symbolic rewards to visiting states.
Why demographics will change everything | Prof. Charles Goodhart
Q: Do you think central bankers will start tolerating higher inflation or raise their targets to cope with fiscal unsustainability?
They are more likely to rely on repression of financial systems to hold more public debt, rather than immediately raising targets; but such moves depend on political feasibility and global capital mobility, making predictions uncertain.
Is economics a science? | Adam Mastroianni
Q: What would a paradigmatic psychology or economics look like, if we started from control systems and deeper metaphysical assumptions?
A paradigmatic approach would anchor theories in the mind as a network of control systems, with specific rules and set points guiding behavior, moving beyond superficial descriptors like 'extraversion' to underlying mechanisms that generate observed patterns.
Is economics a science? | Adam Mastroianni
Q: What do we mean when we use the word science, and can economics be considered a science based on methods instead of mood?
Science is about the mood and desire to uncover true, useful knowledge about the world and may involve varied methods; economics can be scientific in its own right when it seeks to understand and model how humans interact under certain constraints, rather than strictly adhering to a single traditional method.
Is the wealth tax actually working for Norway | Prof. Ole-Andreas Næss
Q: What happened with the 2022 reform and the exit of wealthy individuals from Norway?
There was a notable exodus of wealthy individuals moving abroad to avoid higher taxes on unrealized gains, which highlighted a loophole—later closed by policy changes to tax unrealized gains even if the assets are held abroad.
