“Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray.”
Fascinating excerpts from a paper I recently encountered on the Economics of Dictatorship: "What is the effect of dictatorial institutions on economic performance? Arguably the most important starting point is Olson’s. Taking a long view of history, Olson argues…
