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 2: Economic Boogaloo)

Dr. Boettke finishes his conversation with us from last time. We discuss the personal bonds between many GMU economics faculty. We talk about Hayek and his influence on economists. Are GMU economics professors ideologically biased? Dr. Boettke gives his answer. We also talk about college basketball. More great conversation with Dr. Boettke -- we promise you'll learn something you didn't know before and laugh along the way. Marcus Shera cohosts.
