53. How Culture Shapes Economies with Garett Jones
• 86 minDavid speaks with Garett Jones, an Associate Professor of Economics at George Mason University, and the author of 3 books: Hive Mind, 10% Less Democracy, and The Culture Transplant. They talked about: Democracy, how good it really is, and whether we have too much of it. Then they looked at intelligence, the impact IQ has on your job prospects and whether companies and nations should optimise for having higher IQ workers. Finally, they discussed culture—what it means, how it changes us, and the impact immigrants have on the places they move to. 📜Full transcript:www.theknowledge.io/garettjones/ 📹 Watch on Youtubehttps://youtu.be/Aq0IDtEGaUo 👤 Connect with Garett:Twitter: @GarettJones Books: Hive Mind | https://amzn.to/3lgMOdV 10% Less Democracy | https://amzn.to/3Lpbcol The Culture Transplant | https://amzn.to/3LsttAU 🗣 Mentioned in the show:Adam Smith | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Smith Joel Schneider | https://education.temple.edu/about/faculty-staff/w-joel-schneider-tuh42402 Capitol Hill | https://www.aoc.gov/explore-capitol-campus/buildings-grounds/history#:~:text=History Patriot Act | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patriot_Act Tyler Cowen | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyler_Cowen Talent | https://amzn.to/3mVt0gv Robert Axelrod | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Axelrod The Evolution of Cooperation |https://amzn.to/3JsOYz6 Steve Jobs | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Jobs Elon Musk | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elon_Musk Bill Gates | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Gates The Melting Pot Theory | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melting_pot Neo Europes | https://homework.study.com/explanation/what-are-neo-europes.html David Epstein | https://davidepstein.com/ Range | https://amzn.to/3ThRnkJ Michael Kramer | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Kramer_(narrator) FANG company | https://www.investopedia.com/terms/f/fang-stocks-fb-amzn.asp#:~:text=Investopedia Charles C.
