Assessing Ukraine’s future thirty years after its independence
Ukraine recently marked the thirtieth anniversary of its independence. Oleg Chupryna argues that if Ukraine is to continue to survive as an independent state, it will need strong support from the West in its relations with Russia. On 24 August, Ukraine celebrated its thirtieth anniversary of independence from the USSR, the modern incarnation of the centuries-old Russian Empire. Some may argue that Ukraine achieved its independence accidentally...

A Look Back at Nixon’s Infamous Monetary Policy Decision
Putting the World on a Paper Standard Half a century ago one of the most disastrous monetary policy decisions in US history was committed by Richard Nixon. In a television address, the president declared that the nation would no longer redeem internationally dollars for gold. Since the dollar was the world’s reserve currency, Nixon’s closing of the “Gold Window” put the world on an irredeemable paper monetary standard. Richard Nixon during...

Time for a regime change in Frankfurt
In recent years, the European Central Bank’s (ECB) monetary policy has been half of what is necessary, two years late. To get eurozone inflation back to its ‘close to 2 per cent’ target, the ECB needs to be much bolder. The ECB’s meeting on March 10th is shaping up to be one of its most anticipated. Inflation remains far below target and market expectations of future inflation have hardened at very low levels, indicating that investors have...

The house price puzzle
Everybody knows that the housing market has become financialized, as Josh Ryan-Collins among others has documented. But what kind of financial asset is housing? The answer is far from straightforward. In one sense, house prices are like share prices. Both are claims upon future incomes – profits in the case of equities and wages in the case of houses (it’s fair to assume rents are a stable fraction of wages). Both tend to fall in recessions....

The Romanian Palimpsest
The foreigner in Romania is immediately struck by the country’s hybrid culture. This is obvious from the first words one learns to garble: piața (very close pronunciation to Italian’s piazza), mersi (from the French merci, though the “r” is a little more rolled), da (yes…), or even bacşiş (baksheesh). We then have a mysterious mélange of Western and Eastern Europe, the Romanian roots are decidedly mixed. Like in any country, the stages of...

Political Thoughts
Politics is the struggle for power.The fundamental power struggle is between the people of a place and the mobile classes. Few people would turn their own back garden into a motorway or commit their next door neighbours to slave working. The mobile classes can do these things without conscience because their garden and neighbours are not fixed.The primary objective of those seeking power for themselves is to acquire loyal mobile supporters. ...

EU Basics – Your Guide to the UK Referendum on EU Membership
By Professor Richard A. Werner, D.Phil. (Oxon) 20 June 2016 The British people should be clear about just what they will be voting on at the EU referendum this Thursday. What does it actually mean to stay in the EU? What does it mean to exit? Concerning the second question, the dominant issue in the debate has been the question whether there will be a significant negative economic impact on the UK from exiting the EU. Prime Minister David...

The structural aspects of public health
2021-07-14 Public health has now become synonymous with how we cope with the pandemic. Though it is understandable that the focus is on containing the spread of the corona virus, it is important to remind ourselves of the underlying reality that renders COVID possible and potentially dangerous. The pandemic has exposed the systemic flaws of modern society, which can be summarised as (i) urbanisation, (ii) inconsiderate eating...

Sebastian Kurz is forced out of the Austrian chancellery—again
Oct 16th 2021BERLINHE MAY ONLY be 35, but Sebastian Kurz has been involved in enough political intrigue for several lifetimes. On October 9th Mr Kurz was toppled as Austria’s chancellor for the second time in three years, amid claims that he had masterminded a conspiracy to buy himself favourable media coverage. In America Mr Kurz would barely be old enough to run for president. But his career at the top of Austrian politics may already be...

Paper: Financial regulation, demand for ‘safe assets’, and monetary conditions
I have a new paper out at Center for Corporate Governance at Copenhagen Business School. Here is the abstract: In the aftermath of the economic and financial shock of 2008-10, the wider policy debate has often turned on why inflation has remained very subdued and interest rates and bond yields historically low despite a marked drop in interest rates and a significant increase in the money base in the US and the euro zone. In this...

How highways shape regional disparities
Transportation infrastructure shapes the spatial economy in fundamental ways, with effects on regional disparities that are ambiguous at best (e.g. Baum-Snow et al. 2020, Faber 2014, Koster et al. 2021). Commuting allows people to access labour markets and amenities that are distant from their homes and workers to access housing markets that are remote from their workplace.1 Therefore, by facilitating commuting, highways make connected...
