Welcome to my blog! After weighing the pros and cons of blogging over the last few years, I have finally decided to join the conversation. I was convinced to to so by my friend and colleague, Don Taylor.
I intend on discussing topics that are of direct relevance to the courses that I teach so as to help my students discover new applications to the concepts I cover in lecture.
While economists-cum-bloggers seem to be in excess supply, the shadow value of this blog need not be zero. As an economist interested in development economics and law and economics and whose focus is on agricultural development policy, I also hope to offer a unique contribution to the policy debate.
