A growing literature develops explanations for 'Europe's golden age' (the European economy's fast growth in the third quarter of the 20th century). Is this effort misguided? In other words, do we really need fancy explanations for a straightforward phenomenon that is easily explained in terms of convergence and delayed structural change?

As some of you have noticed, the readings for this week were not put on reserve. The non-web-available readings are in one book, of which there are two copies in the library. One has been recalled to make copies and put in reserve at Haas. I have the other one. If anyone needs it, please let me know.
Cheers,
Juan Carlos Suarez

On the previous note. Some of you might be wondering why I didn't put it on reserve myself. The wonders of the Haas Reserves system prevented me from doing so. Haas librarians had already recalled a book (which is apparently easier than picking one off the shelf!) and I lack priviledges.

Good things come in threes. I wonder if anyone will read this?

At least, one of your classmates is reading your comments :)
