The International Economics Network

The International Economics Network
http://www.international economics.net/

The International Economics Network is a collection of key resources for international economics, as well as other related disciplines, including, inter alia, global business and finance, international law, and international development. It was inspired by the absence of an annotated, selective international economics-specific portal, together with Jamus Jerome Lim's personal interest in the subject and a desire to make the existing body of working papers and news articles on international economics conveniently accessible to a wide audience. Hence the birth of the site. The site is constantly growing as resources are added on an almost daily basis - mostly in the News & Commentary and Research Papers sections. This has been added to Research Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog. This will be added to Business Resources 2005 Internet MiniGuide.

Whiskey-Bar Economics

Whiskey-Bar Economics 06/05/2004 09:30 PM
One of the better online writers on the liberal/moderate side of the spectrum is “Billmon” at Whiskey Bar. He’s got a huge, informative, statistics-laced piece on the general state of the U.S. economy, worth a read by anyone who cares even a little bit. As an added bonus, in the comments someone has posted a pointer to this, which (if even moderately accurate) is pretty astounding.

The Economics of Piracy

The Economics of Piracy 01/05/2004 11:35 PM

On Piracy, or, Nick Bradbury is an Amazing Idiot: This was written in response to Nick Bradbury's bit about piracy from yesterday.

...most people who pirate his software probably would never use it anyway, so they aren't costing him any money and they're providing him with free advertising.

This is a good point. I'm not defending piracy, but piracy costs a company money in only one instance: when a person who has the means and inclination to buy the software pirates it instead. I can get a pirated copy of Oracle, but that doesn't mean I've cost that company money, because if I couldn't pirate it, I wouldn't buy it — I'd use something cheaper or free.

Now, there are holes in this theory, of course, because if true, it essentially means that poor people can pirate anything they want because they couldn't or wouldn't buy it otherwise. But I get annoyed when Microsoft claims that piracy costs it untold billions of dollars a year. This is a little arrogant. Microsoft is basically saying that every single person who pirated their software would have paid full price for it if piracy wasn't an option.

This is patently ridiculous and Microsoft knows it, but big numbers make big headlines. If Office was suddenly un-piratable, would Microsoft reap a billion-dollar windfall from would-be thieves? Nope — Open Office would just saturate the market in a big hurry. When the only options are paying for it or finding a much cheaper alternative, 99% of pirates will choose the latter.

E conomics and Race: "Twenty-seven-year-old Harvard economist Roland Fryer grew up poor and black, in a family that was falling apart. His mother abandoned him. His father drank heavily and beat him. Fryer sold drugs and carried a gun. Then, at age 15, after he got pulled over by the police and then let go, he decided he wanted something different."

Open Source Software economics

Open Source Software economics 11/01/2003 05:18 AM
As an occasional user of Linux, and someone in the software industry, I've followed the "Open Source" movement for quite some time. To a minority, Open Source Software (specifically GPL licensed Open Source Software) represents an ideological and sociological movement, something that will change the world. To the majority, it is simply a way to get cool and useful software without going through the expense of buying, or the hassle of pirating it.

Economics of Scientific and Biomedical Journals by Haekyung Jeon–Slaughter, Andrew A. Herkovic, and Michael A. Keller
htt p://www.firstmonday.org/issues/issue10_3/jeon/index.html

Abstract:
The emergence of e–journals brought a great change in scholarly communication and in the behavior of scholars. However, the importance of scholars’ behavior in the pricing of scientific journal has been largely ignored in the recent debate between libraries and publishers over site license practices and pricing schemes. Stanford’s survey results indicate that sharply increasing costs are the main reason for individual subscription cancellation, driving users to rely on library or other institutional subscriptions. Libraries continue to be a vital information provider in the electronic era and their bargaining power in the market and the importance of roles in scholarly communication will be increased by branding and a strong relationship with users. Publishers’ strategy for thriving in the electronic era is not to lose personal subscribers. Cooperation among the three sectors — scholars, libraries, and publishers — promises optimal results for each sector more than ever.

SANS Institute
http://www.sans.org/

SANS is the most trusted and by far the largest source for information security training and certification in the world. It also develops, maintains, and makes available at no cost, the largest collection of research documents about various aspects of information security, and it operates the Internet's early warning system - Internet Storm Center. The SANS (SysAdmin, Audit, Network, Security) Institute was established in 1989 as a cooperative research and education organization. Its programs now reach more than 165,000 security professionals, auditors, system administrators, network administrators, chief information security officers, and CIOs who share the lessons they are learning and jointly find solutions to the challenges they face. At the heart of SANS are the many security practitioners in government agencies, corporations, and universities around the world who invest hundreds of hours each year in research and teaching to help the entire information security community.

The Economics of Technology Sharing: Open Source and Beyond by Josh Lerner and Jean Tirole
http://opens ource.mit.edu/papers/lernertirole3.pdf

Abstract by Author:
This paper reviews our understanding of the growing open source movement. We highlight how many aspects of open source software appear initially puzzling to an economist. As we have acknowledge, our ability to answer confidently many of the issues raised here questions is likely to increase as the open source movement itself grows and evolves. At the same time, it is heartening to us how much of open source activities can be understood within existing economic frameworks, despite the presence of claims to the contrary. The labor and industrial organization literatures provide lenses through which the structure of open source projects, the role of contributors, and the movement's ongoing evolution can be viewed.
