If a historian’s role is to remind us about what people in the present seem to have forgotten, an economist might discuss episodes in economic history to remind us about where past national economic decisions have taken us. In the past year, and especially in the last few months of this year, I have written on topics about Philippine modern economic history. For those of my readers who follow my writings assiduously for the learning and the challenge my views might pose to them, I list several of the topics on recent economic history. I stop by Dupont Circle metro stop to collect books that I had reserved from Second Story, a second-hand bookshop. There was a huge crowd at Dupont Circle.
