Re: [Wikimedia-l] 'Periodic Table of Economics': Mapping the Global Economy
Hi Alex, just curious - since you refer to yourself as an economist, what institution(s) are you affiliated with? And can you explain how writing Economy of X articles, no matter how detailed, will solve the problem of uneven resource distribution around the world?

Re: [Wikimedia-l] 'Periodic Table of Economics': Mapping the Global Economy
I want to clarify that I am not a professional economist. I am a financial economics major at Western Washington University. These 'Economy of X' are designed for laypersons to see the economic reality of the world. I believe if the public were more informed on economics, we would better chance solving world hunger. Once this project is finished, one will clearly see that there are resources available to solve most of societies problems. I believe that my project provides a very strong argument for humanitarian organizations in the world. This project is a fundamentally missing piece of the economic conversation.
