Ayer (1963) and Carnap (1945) are classic papers in philosophy of probability, and Popper (1957 and 1959) are famous statements of his “propensity” theory of probability, a modern development of which seems to be the preferred version of objective probability theory in modern philosophy (Gillies 2000: 136).
Perry (1995) is a fascinating paper examining risk versus uncertainty in the context of law and litigation.

ReplyDeleteI saw this comment by you at free advice, quoting Marc Lavoie:
".. thus leading to the conclusion that a government deficit, all else equal, leads to an increase in bank reserves and therefore downward pressures on the overnight rate – the exact opposite of the mainstream crowding-out argument.”
This is the controversial point made by MMT... and Lavoie's critique of MMT disagreed with this, if I remember correctly. So how does Lavoie explain this argument in his paper?
Do you have the reference to Lavoie's critique of MMT?
DeleteIn his chapter (M. Lavoie, 2013. “Teaching Post-Keynesian Economics in a Mainstream Department,” in Jesper Jespersen and Mogens Ove Madsen (eds.), Teaching Post Keynesian Economics. Edward Elgar, Cheltenham, UK. 12–33), I don't believe he mentions MMT.
