I'm happy to say I am a Harrison-Kreps-Keynesian.

I'm happy to say I am a Harrison-Kreps-Keynesian.

I wasn't the brightest kid, not by a long shot. I was interested in football, in girls, in getting my work done with the least amount of effort.

When I was a graduate student, estimating and interpreting distributed lags topped the agenda of macroeconomists and other applied economists.

Keynes was a very good economist. He was brilliant. He had wonderful insights. His work has inspired me many times.

In the 1980s, there were occasions when it made sense to say, 'it is too difficult to maximize the likelihood function, and besides if we do, it will blow our model out of the water.

What I really don't like is oversimplification.
