In case you missed it. Over the weekend Professor Steve Keen launched a kickstarter campaign to raise $50,000 ( with the ultimate aim of $1 million) for a computer program for building & visually simulating dynamic, monetary economic models named Minsky.
Pledging to the campaign has a sliding rewards scale with the main reward being the project itself. Minsky will help the world by allowing economists to build models take debt, banks, and money seriously.
The other rewards include:
- Signed copies of my book Debunking Economics;
- Two unique “Minsky: Stability is… Destabilizing” T-shirts;
- Webinars and seminars by me on economics (here are 2 examples: my lecturing: my seminar in Congress in December 2012 about the “Fiscal Cliff”; and my lectures on Behavioral Finance to my university students); and
- Acknowledgement of your assistance.
There is heaps more information on the kickstarter site and from the man himself in the video below:
