I have been interested in economics quite some time. In here, I intend to share the stuff I read, implement and experiment, in the field of economics.

  1. Small Businesses: An Introduction: This is an introductory post on small businesses, from both a business and economics point of view.
  2. Productivity in Small Businesses: A note: This is an extension of the previous article, where I discuss the productivity of small businesses.
  3. Analysis of the International Trade Network with Community Core Detection: Recently dabbling with graph partitioning/community detection algorithms and came across a very interesting use-case in international trade, which is the analysis of the international trade network (ITN) using such algorithms. The ITN can be viewed as one complex dynamic graph/network and interesting inferences can be made when it is studied across time. Although there are many cool papers on this topic, I picked up this paper and implemented it. Got an opportunity to learn quite a bit in terms of working with real-world economics datasets (the CEPII-BACI dataset is used in the paper), trying to understand a phenomenon that happened in the world economy using certain algorithms.
  4. I am currently reading an interesting paper on the Mundell-Fleming Trilemma. Will be writing about it soon.
