My newest Project Syndicate column was stimulated, if that is the right word, by a comment made by a discussant at a recent book launch for The Globalization Paradox. "Rodrik wants to make the world safe for politicians," complained the discussant, and this set me off thinking. Here is the result.
By the way, I think the answer to the question in my title is that they wish the world were run by Platonic guardians – namely economists like themselves…
Or maybe the economics profession is dominated by authoritarians. That would explain why so many people who lie a lot to support existing power structures are treated like they are trustworthy scientists.

"[Markets] need central banks and fiscal institutions to avert financial panics and moderate business cycles"?? C'mon Mr. Rodrik, you can't say that with a straight face.

What about the differences in skill intensities across industries? The job losses in the relatively unskilled-labor intensive battery industry should have little effect on the relatively skilled-labor intensive machinery
