> economic models that have diverged from reality in important ways. Can you expand on this?

• throwpoaster 10mo ago
  Postwar, Western governments used straightforward economic models based on the three-part identity between exchange, interest, and inflation rates, all mediated by growth. They did this in order to make market environments stable to facilitate rebuilding Europe (juicing the growth term). Inflation, for example, is obviously not a scalar. All models are approximations. As we reach the limits of these models we must extend them.
