Branko Milanovic on the Big Questions of Economics

Branko Milanovic talks with host Russ Roberts about the big questions in economics. He argues that the Nobel Prize Committee is missing an opportunity to encourage more ambitious work by awarding the prize to economists tackling questions China's economic rise and other challenging but crucial areas of scholarship. In the conversation, he lays out what those questions might be and discusses what we know and don't know in these areas.
