Jeg har en kronikk i @aftenposten.no i dag om at Kina ikke er supermakten du tror den er. Tidligere har jeg skrevet mye om at Kina ikke matcher USA militært. Ny forskning viser at USA også er økonomisk overlegen. Les mer her: www.aftenposten.no/meninger/deb...
Kinas vekst er betydelig overdrevet.
Kina fremstilles som en supermakt på linje med USA. Denne ideen faller sammen så fort du ser på tallene som faktisk betyr noe.

[1/3] Retrenching the welfare state is unpopular—yet parties that do it often escape electoral punishment. Why don’t voters punish parties for cutting welfare?

Flere lotterier! Det vil gi mer og bedre kunnskap, som igjen kan gi bedre og mer effektiv politikk. Det skriver jeg sammen med @fiva.no, @torewig.bsky.social, @haakongjerlw.bsky.social, Aksel Braanen Sterri og Andreas K. Tveit i @aftenposten.no.
Aprilsnarr, absurd eller tull? Nei. Vi trenger flere lotterier i norsk politikk.
Kritikerne avslører mangel på forståelse for kunnskapsbasert politikk.
