WOW. EU paper authorship is also back to 1980 levels. But still. I mean, I get that this is still better than the US, but wtf. I wish Krugman had included that

WOW. EU paper authorship is also back to 1980 levels. But still. I mean, I get that this is still better than the US, but wtf. I wish Krugman had included that total papers has gone up spectacularly, and would not hide the absolute numbers. Plus I don't like that he's not being very clear on the distinction of social vs "hard" (positivist) sciences. But wtf.
