Kennedy School economist Dani Rodrik has a new blog!

And pretty high-level thinkin’ it is, too. All those who say that Harvard professors would have to dumb themselves down to write a blog—an argument I’ve never understood, since a blog is essentially a big, blank sheet of paper—should take a look.

So far, the economists at Harvard are leading the way into the blogosphere. Rodrik is already engaging in a pretty good debate with Greg Mankiw. “Now, neither of Greg’s arguments is exactly right…”

Which Harvard humanist will be first to blog? Hurry, folks, or you will confirm Larry Summers’ suspicions about the superiority of his profession as compared to the humanities….

Professor Rodrik, just one suggestion: How about a name for your blog?
