This could be a nice gig for somebody. My understanding is you would be the second economist, and the plan is to hire one more next year. The College just started, so you would have the opportunity to help shape the program. Very heterodox, interdisciplinary, political economy type gig, where Marx is seriously respected. Michael Perelman, can you fwd to pen-l??
