Life, The Universe and Everything: October 2014

http://www.swapnilpawar.in/2014_10_01_archive.html

Life, The Universe and Everything. Reviews - books, movies et al. Wednesday, October 29, 2014. Economic theory of value, price and utility. Price is a very sensitive topic in microeconomics. There has been a lot of work done in this domain. Unfortunately most of it is completely misguided by attempts to theorize about price from a normative thinking process of ‘what should be the price? 8217; or ‘how should a rational individual think about price? 8217; is mistaken. Here’s why. Dependence on time: Food i...

Life, The Universe and Everything. Reviews - books, movies et al. Wednesday, March 12, 2014. Economics with Fewer Equations. The theme that economics is less like physics and more like biology is not new. However it is more a fringe view than a mainstream one. Even now, I would guess that the general expectation of an economic journal in publishing a paper is what mathematical basis it has and how robust the Econometrics is. Several recent things have pointed to a better direction. The opposition to the ...

http://www.swapnilpawar.in/p/metanarratives.html

Life, The Universe and Everything. Reviews - books, movies et al. Post modernism is often defined as the incredulity towards all meta-narratives. I have written in detail in one of the posts in the main blog about what metanarratives are. I am creating this page to describe a few metanarratives closely. If we spell out the widely accepted metanarratives clearly, we know what to not believe blindly. Hence each of the below descriptions are examples of WHAT I DON'T BELIEVE IN! 1 Metanarrative of love.

Life, The Universe and Everything. Reviews - books, movies et al. Friday, January 23, 2015. The Nature of Money and its implications. While in a simplified theory money appears to be a veil and a mere convenience for transactions, nuanced thinking in the matter suggests that money affects the real economy in a very profound way. Review of neoclassical position on money and its limitations. I am reasonably certain that even in the set-ups where knowledge is universal and available (all 5 are told that the...

Life, The Universe and Everything. Reviews - books, movies et al. Friday, October 11, 2013. Origin of Wealth - review of part I. The subsequent chapters cover emergence and evolution and are equally fascinating. I will cover them in another blog. The second part on evolution of physical and social technologies starts to look lot less exhilirating conceptually - so i might cover it briefly later. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

http://www.swapnilpawar.in/2013_05_01_archive.html

Life, The Universe and Everything. Reviews - books, movies et al. Saturday, May 11, 2013. Evolution of institutions in human society. Institutions in human society can evolve in two ways. For one, transactions which start to repeat get recognized by the relevant actors as conventions. Over time these conventions may give rise to more rigid institutions. This is emergent variety of the evolution of institutions. Thus we come to the reflexive relationship between transactions of actors and the institutions...

Life, The Universe and Everything. Reviews - books, movies et al. Friday, June 12, 2015. The Locus of Self. The locus of self and its implications for our understanding of ourselves as well as the society we are a part of is the topic of this article.

Life, The Universe and Everything. Reviews - books, movies et al. Saturday, April 19, 2014. An attempt at summarizing my understanding of postmodern thought. Postmodernism has often been introduced briefly by borrowing Lyotard’s statement – “postmodernism is the incredulity towards all metanarratives.” Rightly so. If there is to be one one-sentence summary of postmodernism, this would be it (for now.) What does it mean? One might argue that language used for everyone on collectively agreed principles to ...
