This time — especially worth reading (and sharing) articles:

• By fetishizing mathematical models, economists turned economics into a highly paid pseudoscience — by Prof. Alan Jay Levinovitz 

• The privatization of public schools is profitable, but it divides communities and erodes the quality of education – by Prof. Diane Ravitch 

• Pareto: “History is the graveyard of elites”; Why do elites keep ruling although they are always replaced? – by Prof. Hugo Drochon

• Inequality is not just the business of academics, politicians or activists; it is something that corporations cannot ignore – by Prof. Christian Olaf Christiansen

P.S. Yesterday’s Oscars fiasco is the accounting giant PricewaterhouseCoopers’ fault. Let them keep auditing the banks, what could possibly go wrong?.. 😉
