escrevo poesia pras gavetas, estudo (crítica da) economia política e moro na cittá eterna doutorando em economia na Roma Tre, bolsista Marie-Curie e parte da EPOG-DN (https://sites.google.com/view/gabzaffari/home)
coisas legais de ter feito doutorado: consigo ler com bastante tranquilidade alguns artigos marginalistas sem sofrer muito em entender os modelos, os teoremas e suas provas. acho que é o legal de estudar na Roma Tre é poder fazer pesquisa heterodoxa aliado a um treinamento (crítico) do mainstream

When high income earners experience anything other than economic tailwinds we never hear the end of it in the media. Never.
Trevon Logan@trevondlogan.bsky.social · 3w agoNever forget: everything was about inflation when the highest income earners wages were relatively stagnant. When the rich and powerful feel any heat at all they will create a media wildfire.
Please make a scene where Sraffa makes the hand gesture to Wittgenstein
Kieran Healy@kjhealy.co · 3w agoAny big-budget Wittgenstein film should be 75% Wittgenstein being an unremitting asshole to everyone he meets, with the director varying whether only we think the target deserves it, 23% him being terrible to himself, and then 2% this specific moment, which is unexpectedly the heart of the film.
This grotesque headline is from the Telegraph. 3,000 people in Britain have been killed in heatwaves this year so far. 20,000 in Europe. Even if Britain did get to “embrace Mediterranean life”, what about the actual Mediterranean, what do they get to embrace? What about India?
Over one third of multinationals’ foreign profits are shifted to tax havens, costing governments >$200 billion a year. Reallocation would raise reported profits by 20% in high-tax EU countries, 10% in the US and 5% in developing countries; and more than halve tax-haven profits

this is good. woo as a venue of play/intuition/art/harmless nonsense is fine, woo as a gateway to distrust of actual science and *especially* medicine is bad. people interested in the first also have a duty to guard against the second.
sarah jeong@sarahjeong.bsky.social · last mo.culture war is evolving to a strange place. went to a craft night and the conversation went from discussing witchcraft (as though it were real) to disparaging antivaxxers within like five minutes. one woman, my new hero, blurted out "they lobotomized the wrong kennedy"
Ok there are sraffian geographers and sraffian anthropologists. Are there sraffian (economic) historians?
One thing that's a really obvious way that The Patriarchy Benefits Woke Men is that we all kinda know that just applying some basic hygiene, having a job and hobbies besides gaming all day, and just not hating women with a burning passion - makes you upper echelon dating material.

I was causally browsing @irwincollier.bsky.social great website Economics in the Rear-View Mirror and found this syllabus so fascinating: www.irwincollier.com/harvard-read... A graduate advanced economic theory course given by Arrow, Belwey and Oniki. And Sraffa is one of the readings!

VOCÊ SABIA? Você sabia que é possível estar perdendo um jogo por 2 gols, marcar um gol e ao invés de ficar de palhaçada com o goleiro, pegar a bola e correr pro centro do campo pra continuar logo o jogo?
Egito viu o jogo entre Argentina e Cabo Verde e pensou: "Se esse monstro sangra, ele pode morrer."

finished reading Hayek's bastards. by the end of the book, the only thing on my mind was: these goddman lunatics are in the top of the world right now. how the hell did this happen
lendo um artigo novo sobre o problema da transformação e pensando: dont treat ill my pierro (sraffa)!!!! uma leitura da commodity padrão totalmente errada
I think my favorite part of writing my last paper was coming up with a way to translate mark-up pricing into a "sraffian" view of inc. distribution: what pricing theory tells us is what movements are allowed within the simplex given by price theory!
essa capa de coleção dos artigos do Kalecki sobre economia em desenvolvimento é linda d+
