Paul Krugman is a lot of things. New York Times op-ed columnist. Nobel prize-winning economist. Arcade Fire fanboy. Obama administration frenemy.

Paul Krugman is at it again. In his latest column, “Sweden turns Japanese“, he argues that Sweden is, well, turning japanese, economically speaking – meaning we in Sweden are about to experience a lost decade of low-to-no growth.

He’s got a point. Outside of CBS, NBC, ABC, MSNBC, CNN, the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Washington Post, every other major newspaper in the country, George Soros, Tom Steyer, Hollywood, academia across the board and every union under the sun, the left is seemingly without a voice to counter talk radio and Fox News.

Feb 23, 2014: Op Ed News: If New York Times Reporters Won' t Read Krugman about Austerity Will they Read Brooks?
I have written repeatedly about the New York Times' needs to create a prize in incompetence in macroeconomic reporting (IMR) and suggested that the paper award the IMR prize to its reporters. I suggested that the prize consist of a two hour lunch with Paul Krugman in which he will provide them with a remedial lecture on why austerity is an economically illiterate response to a recession.

Under the ironically-titled post “Potential Misunderstandings“, Paul Krugman profoundly illustrates why he doesn’t understand bubbles by writing, ”If you want to claim that an economy has grown unsustainably above potential, you need to show me the accelerating inflation.”

Nov 5, 2013: Rugged Egalatarianism: Think Bigger, Please!
Paul Krugman has yet another pair of pieces up about real interest rates, inflation rates, monetary policy “tightness” or “looseness”, and the purported theoretical connection between these phenomena and US stagnation: stagnation in US growth, employment and wages. Read them and yawn.

Apr 25, 2011: Brad DeLong: Benjamin Wallace-Wells's Paul Krugman Profile Is Up...
It is a good piece. Ezra Klein is first out of the gate with a reaction: Ben Wallace-Wells’s profile of Paul Krugman is an excellent piece of work, but rather than engage with the various big ideas and tough questions that the piece raises, I’m just going to quote from the hilarious sniping between Krugman and Larry Summers:

Paul Robin Krugman (born February 28, 1953) is an American economist, Professor of Economics and International Affairs at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University, Centenary Professor at the London School of Economics, and an op-ed columnist for The New York Times. In 2008, Krugman won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences for his contributions to New Trade Theory and New Economic Geography. According to the prize Committee, the prize was given for Krugman's work explaining the patterns of international trade and the geographic concentration of wealth, by examining the effects of economies of scale and of consumer preferences for diverse goods and services. Krugman is known in academia for his work on international economics (including trade theory, economic geography, and international finance), liquidity traps, and currency crises. He is the 20th most widely cited economist in the world today and is ranked among the most influential academic thinkers in the US. As of 2008, Krugman has written 20 books and has published over 200 scholarly articles in professional journals and edited volumes. He has also written more than 750 columns on economic and political issues for The New York Times. He also writes on topics ranging from income distribution to international economics. Krugman considers himself a liberal, calling one of his books and his New York Times blog The Conscience of a Liberal. His popular commentary has attracted considerable comment, both positive and negative.
