Bryan, you're right but unfair to North (not to Arnold that claims that North has an answer). It is unfair to compare a philosopher that is supposed (trained?) to give an answer while standing on one foot, with a historian or an economist that is supposed to provide a consistent explanation of a set of related facts. In the past 35 years, North's views on what he now calls "the process of economic change" have changed too much, but he is not close to have an "answer". Arnold appears to have in mind only one recent work by North (jointly with Wallis and Weingast).
Hi Brian,
Aloha from Hawaii. Do you think voters should be able to vote on legislative issues on local, state, and federal levels? If yes, how can this be accomplished?
Alan
ps: I have a solution...
