Loose, Vague, and Indeterminate
George Mason Economics Society
14 episodes
4 days ago
Loose, Vague, and Indeterminate is the podcast of the Economics Society at George Mason University. The title is a phrase used by Adam Smith in The Theory of Moral Sentiments to describe the set of rules that are not "precise and accurate." Since economics is all about people and the decisions they make, very little of it is precise and accurate. Every Friday, this podcast dives into the looseness, vagueness, and indeterminacy with interviews of undergraduate students, graduate students, professors, and outsiders exploring economics from all angles.

Peter Boettke on History of GMU Economics (Part 1)

Dr. Peter Boettke joins the podcast to talk about the history of GMU economics. He discusses his days as an undergraduate student at Grove City College and as a graduate student here at GMU.  We learn who the major professors were back then and how the campus has grown to its present size.  We talk college basketball and the Nobel Prize.  We also learn who told Dr. Boettke to "wear a proper pair of trousers."  This episode is full of fun stories from Dr. Boettke's life in economics, and it's only Part 1.  Stay tuned for Part 2 next Friday.  Marcus Shera cohosts.
