1. Catherine Rampbell talks about the rise of long-term unemployment and the creation of a growing underclass on Economix Blog, covering similar ground to Ronan Lyons’ post on Irish long-run unemployment linked earlier. I don’t like the use of the phrase underclass in the Irish context (don’t know about the US) but the main ideas in her post ring true here also.
2. Robin Hanson posts about the levers of innovation
3. Stephen Kinsella is constantly integrating new technologies into his module content. He is looking for comments on i-phone apps he is developing for teaching economics
4. Andrew Leigh summarises recent work by John List and colleagues on experimental economics
