…I don't think we can even answer that so it is doomed from the start if we are trying to be objective. If we start over we should just explicitly admit this field is a type of theater. Like Shiller's Narrative Economics is a good start but that is still pretending to be too scientific.
顺便提醒一下，罗伯特·希勒的新课《叙事经济学：故事如何病毒式传播并推动重大经济事件》（Narrative Economics: How Stories Go Viral And Drive Major Economic Events）将于2020年初在 Coursera 上线 ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLsG4R8FFOc 如果你有量化技能，我认为除了深入……
Just a heads up, Robert Shiller's new course in "Narrative Economics: How Stories Go Viral And Drive Major Economic Events" goes live on Coursera early 2020 ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLsG4R8FFOc If you have quantitative skills, I think an alternative to delving…
……作者偶尔确实会模糊观点与事实的界限。我把这归因于写作风格。其性质类似于我以前挺喜欢的一本书——《智慧坐落在地方》（Wisdom Sits in Places），但没那么聚焦。对于科技圈的人来说，罗伯特·希勒的《叙事经济学》可能会显得重点不突出。尽管如此，这本书为搞 textmining 的人提供了背景参考。希望经济学能因此发生一些改变。……
…author does occasionally blur the line between opinion and facts. I attribute it to writing styles. Similar in nature to another book I quite liked in the past - Wisdom Sits in Places, but less focused. Narrative Economics by Robert Shiller would be unfocused to people who are in the tech industry. Nonetheless, the book serves to give context to people who are textmining. Hopefully some changes to economics arise from this.…
…base salary, and save a lot of it To be fair, that comment doesn't exactly align with advising someone against getting a mortgage they can't afford unless they receive a bonus. I'm currently reading "Narrative Economics" by Shiller and it mentions propaganda historically being fed to the poor/middle classes in regards to saving as much money as possible (so banks could profit or earn commish off it)...I'm by no means…
…of bimetallism. Bimetallism was the Bitcoin of the times, railroads were the "tech" of the times. Robert Shiller has a very entertaining comparative research between Bitcoin and bimetallism in his book Narrative Economics: https://youtu.be/QV0JrMV5nnc
It has been a nice experiment to prove our intuition about deflationary currency and hording correct. The other interesting aspect is in terms of Robert Shiller's narrative economics. What is most interesting to me is that the narrative economics and contagion were able to morph the currency narrative into something else so that the hording became a feature and not a bug in the narrative.…
……我觉得我们甚至都无法回答这个问题，所以如果我们试图追求客观，从一开始就注定要失败。如果我们要从头来过，不如直接承认这个领域本质上就是一种演戏。比如希勒（Shiller）的《叙事经济学》（Narrative Economics）是个不错的开端，但那依然在装得过于科学。

……基本工资，并且存下很大一部分。平心而论，那条评论并不完全等同于建议某人在没拿到奖金就承担不起的情况下别去背房贷。我目前正在读希勒的《叙事经济学》，书里提到历史上向穷人/中产阶级灌输尽可能多存钱的宣传（这样银行就能从中获利或赚取佣金）……我绝不是……

……复本位制（bimetallism）。复本位制就是当时的 Bitcoin，铁路就是当时的“tech”。罗伯特·希勒在他的《叙事经济学》一书中对 Bitcoin 和复本位制做了一项非常有趣的对比研究：https://youtu.be/QV0JrMV5nnc

这是一个很好的实验，证实了我们关于通缩型货币和囤积倾向的直觉是正确的。另一个有趣的方面在于罗伯特·希勒的叙事经济学。我觉得最有趣的是，叙事经济学和传播感染力竟然能把货币叙事演变成另一种东西，以至于囤积成了叙事中的一种 feature 而非 bug。……
