Is This What Economists Dream of Being? | Mark Corner | TEDxKULeuvenBrussels
TEDx Talks· 2025-12-03 17:48
Economics and Prediction - Economics differs from hard sciences like physics because its causal laws operate through human agency, introducing organized chaos [1] - Economists cannot make the same sort of predictions as physicists due to the unpredictable nature of human behavior [1] - The financial crisis of 2008 was not predicted by economists, unlike Halley's comet which has a predictable return every 76 years [2][5] - Uncertainty is inherent in economics and life, making it difficult to have a crystal ball for predicting events like the next financial crisis [11][12] Human Behavior and Rationality - Human behavior is not always rational, as illustrated by the example of graduate students outsourcing tasks based on cost-benefit analysis, which later changed after having children [1] - The Queen of England questioned economists about their failure to predict the 2008 financial crisis, highlighting the human element of complacency [5][9] - Economists may be more like historians, understanding past events but unable to predict future ones with certainty [12][13] Mathematics in Economics - There is an increasing use of mathematics in economics, but it may not fully capture the organized chaos of human life [1] - The Phillips machine, a hydraulic machine illustrating money flow in the UK economy, was an attempt to model economic behavior but could not predict the financial crisis [6][7][8]

Is it true that the speakers of minoritized languages such as Kasubian, Basque or Anu spoken in Japan can strengthen, promote and transmit their languages only through the legal and social mechanisms.

It was during a Sheffield game in Sydney, Australia, where he faced a delivery of 140 km an hour and roughly had about 150 to 200 milliseconds to react to the ball. for that specific delivery.No one knew that t ...
