More than half of global sovereign debt contracts are governed by New York State law -- which sets a NINE PERCENT pre-judgment compensatory rate for debts in default. @Martin_M_Guzman and @JosephEStiglitz led a meeting to discuss upcoming NYS legislation to remedy that rate.

The throne of Kongo, ca. 1668. Acemogulu and Robinson follow in the long tradition of Hegelian writers of Africa, whose wilful ignorance of Africa didn’t stop them from writing authoritatively about the continent. africanhistoryextra.com/p/acemoglu-in-…

I wrote an article for @faznet on how (and how not) the BRICS contest the US-dominated global financial system. Rather than grand gestures like a BRICS currency they create networks of transnational infrastructures that create autonomy from the USD-system faz.net/pro/weltwirtsc…
