They are falling all around me
They are falling all around me
They are falling all around me
The strongest leaves of my tree
Every paper brings the news that
Every paper brings the news that
Every paper brings the news that
The teachers of my sound are movin’ on
Death it comes and rests so heavy
Death it comes and rests so heavy
Death comes and rests so heavy
Your face I’ll never see no more
But you’re not really going to leave me
You’re not really going to leave me
You’re not really going to leave me
It is your path I walk
It is your song I sing
It is your load I take on
It is your air that I breathe
It’s the record you set
That makes me go on
It’s your strength that helps me stand
You’re not really
You’re not really going to leave me
And I have tried to sing my song right
I have tried to sing my song right
I will try to sing my song right
Be sure to let me hear from you

This has not been a good week for heterodox economic thinkers: I have just learned that Drue Barker, an important voice in feminist economics, and Victoria Chick, a prominent post-Keynesian, have both passed away. Two more strong leaves on our tree.
Thank you for the notices.
"This has not been a good week for heterodox economic thinkers..."
Forgive what may seem to be a foolish question: "What really is a 'heterodox' economic thinker?" The term is used repeatedly, and Barkley Rosser used term frequently, but I find the term questionable. Was, say, Joan Robinson a heterodox thinker? What about James Galbraith, who Paul Krugman recently had a bitter exchange with?
Brad DeLong, for instance, uses "heterodox" only to refer to economists who have socialist perspectives. And, as such, DeLong uses the term bitterly. I prefer never to use the term, possibly because of the slant DeLong has.
