The Lucas critique was an important contribution, but it was not a devastating criticism of Keynesian economics. It was a criticism of a particular way of doing Keynesian economics."
— Joseph Stiglitz (Nobel Prize in 2001)
Economics discord exists as a community on the internet to engage around economics-related content. The community is targeted at academic and professional economists, economics students, individuals working in or studying in economics-adjacent fields or individuals with an active interest in economics.
We primarily provide academic support for introductory and intermediate-level microeconomics, macroeconomics, economics-related math, statistics and all levels of econometrics. We provide feedback for research design and research ideas for researchers at all levels.
Engagement in our econometrics channel is one of the most active and positive aspects of the community.
In addition to providing a place for research feedback, homework help, and broader discussion, economics discord provides access to information about economics research, economics methods and economics as a career choice.
We host discussion on the latest economic topics of the day such as inflation or the influence of commodity prices on the economy.
Our server bot, BotBernanke, checks for updates to the latest economics papers every day and provides papers with abstracts and direct access links in the "Latest Econ Papers" channels.
Collaborate with us on GitHub https://github.com/EconomicsDiscord.
We also have a geospatial data channel for discussion of geospatial data which is a rapidly developing frontier in modern data analysis.
We have cultivated a long list of websites with data and microdata available that are useful for students who are looking to develop a thesis, paper or research idea. Find the database here https://github.com/jdickinson202/national_statistical.
One of the most important objectives of the server is to promote a safe space where everyone, including and especially women, LGBTQIA+ individuals and other under-represented minorities, have the possibility to participate in economics the way they choose.
