Moral Mayhem: Interview with Garett Jones

National IQ, Immigrants & the Wealth of Nations

In this episode, we interview Garett Jones, an economist at George Mason University Our discussion, initially aimed at Garett's latest book The Culture Transplant ends up delving into themes across his works - IQ as an externality, mechanisms that drive institutional quality, cultural persistence in immigrant diasporas, theories of assimilation and more. We also take an ambitious short detour to speculate on Singapore's secret to success.

Here are links to Garett's books, all of which we couldn't put down:
