David Krakauer on Emergent Political Economies and A Science of Possibility

We discuss the legacy of long-standing challenges to quantitative history and mathematical economics, how SFI thinks differently about these topics, and a brief outline of the major angles we’ll explore in this sub-series over the next year-plus — including the roles of dimension, causality, algorithms, scaling, innovation, emergence, and more.

SFI's Complexity is among my favourite podcasts. This episode, and the series it fronts, are a look into a revising of theories of political economy --- a domain which to date has been frustrating and problematic.

Strongly recommended.
