Today—November 3, 2026—we cannot, we must not, make the same mistake the German people made in 1932 when the opposition divided and the Nazis ascended, writes Alan Minsky of @pdamerica.bsky.social.

Yet, another “Minsky Moment”.

This is typical of people who approach heterodox ideas but graduate from Harvard University. Not all that different from Minsky. Fred Lee has some interesting commentary on these divides in his History of Heterodox Economics.

...On cherche à modéliser/automatiser la logique, l'inférence, le raisonnement, depuis l'Antiquité, avec des moments marquants (Socrate, Aristote, Llull, Leibniz, Babbage, Turing, Minsky, etc., etc.), mais depuis quatre ans seulement, quelque chose fonctionne de manière troublante...

Minsky moment is a sudden, major collapse of asset values which marks the end of the growth phase of a cycle in credit markets or business activity caused by the inability to service debt.

Or as minsky would say, we are in the ponzi phase of investment now

You don’t get rewarded/bonuses for below average profits (relative to peer firms) or for losing market share. Minsky in one sentence is: it’s rational to keep taking bigger and bigger risks. If the regulators let you (and even if they don’t)

Back when Minsky & Simon came up with the term AI, it really was Artificial - a carefully encoded set of logical rules to do a certain task which was an Intelligent thing to do.

Now, it's neither. Just a giant Skinnerean black box full of Nvidia chip sets.

Thirty years after Hyman Minsky’s death, his name is more familiar than his political economy.

Whenever a financial boom turns into panic, someone announces a new “Minsky moment.”

This posthumous fame has narrowed our understanding of Minsky’s legacy.
Hyman Minsky Was a Powerful Critic of Capitalism
The economist Hyman Minsky died 30 years ago today. Best known for his theory of financial instability, Minsky developed a view of capitalism and its mutations that was far more radical than many of those who cite his work appreciate.

Was discussing four Galtons and one Minsky today in class, and students came to a similar conclusion...

As Minsky said: Anyone can create money. The trick is getting others to accept it.

We accept government created dollars because we. An use dollars to pay our taxes & court judgements.

We accept store credit for a $20 shirt because we can use that credit to buy a $20 shirt from the store.
