Controversy also arose from a rhetorical question posed by the report and repeated by Mankiw in a speech about the report: [57] "when a fast-food restaurant sells a hamburger, is it providing a service or combining inputs to manufacture a product?" He intended to point out that the distinction between manufacturing jobs and service industry jobs is somewhat arbitrary and so is a poor basis for policy. Even though the issue was not raised in the report, a news account led to criticism that the administration was seeking to cover up job losses in manufacturing by redefining jobs like cooking hamburgers as manufacturing. [58] 2011 student walkout [ edit ] In February 2013, Mankiw publicly supported same-sex marriage in the United States in an amicus brief submitted to the US Supreme Court. [50] Mankiw has written widely on economics and economic policy. As of February2020 [update], the RePEc overall ranking based on academic publications, citations, and related metrics put him as the 45th most influential economist in the world, out of nearly 50,000 registered authors. [6] He was the 11th most cited economist and the 9th most productive research economist as measured by the h-index. [7] In addition, Mankiw is the author of several best-selling textbooks, writes a popular blog, [8] and has since 2007 written approximately monthly for the Sunday business section of The New York Times. [9] According to the Open Syllabus Project, Mankiw is the most frequently-cited author on college syllabi for economics courses. [10] Mankiw became president of the Eastern Economic Association; he succeeded Joseph Stiglitz and was followed by Paul Krugman. [75] Nasar, Sylvia (1995-03-14). "A Hard Act to Follow? Here Goes.

Mankiw, N. Gregory. (1998). Principles of economics. Fort Worth, TX: Dryden Press. ISBN 0-03-098238-3. OCLC 37611615. Mankiw's most widely-cited paper is "A Contribution to the Empirics of Economic Growth," which was coauthored with David Romer and David Weil and published in the Quarterly Journal of Economics in 1992. The paper argues that the Solow growth model, once augmented to include a role for human capital, explains reasonably well international differences in standards of living. According to Google Scholar, it has been cited more than 24,000 times, which makes it one of the most cited articles in the field of economics. N. Gregory Mankiw (2006).

N. Gregory Mankiw (1998). Principles of Economics (1sted.). Fort Worth, Texas: Dryden Press. ISBN 978-0-03098238-5. Principles of Economics is the standard textbook for American economics departments' introductory classes. [6] [7] [8] The current publisher Cengage claims it is the "most popular economics textbook". [9] 10 Principles [ edit ] Several controversies arose from CEA's February 2004 Economic Report of the President. In a press conference, Mankiw spoke of the gains from free trade and noted that the outsourcing of jobs by US companies is "probably a plus for the economy in the long run." [53] [54] This reflected mainstream economic analysis, but was criticized by many politicians, [55] [56] who drew a link between outsourcing and the slow recovery of the US labor market in early 2004. [56] The proposed regulatory reforms were passed into law only years later, when the financial crisis of 2007–2008 was well underway. Mankiw, N. Gregory (January 2020).

OCLC 1109789332. {{ cite book}}: CS1 maint: location missing publisher ( link)After leaving the CEA, Mankiw resumed teaching at Harvard and took over one of the most popular classes at Harvard College, the introductory economics course Ec 10, from Martin Feldstein. [42] He has become an influential figure in the blogosphere and online journalism since launching his eponymous blog. The blog, [8] which was originally designed to assist his Ec10 students, has gained a readership that extends far beyond students of introductory economics. [43] Subtitled "Random Observations for Students of Economics," it was ranked the top economics blog by US economics professors in a 2011 survey. [44] Mr. Trump has not laid out a coherent economic worldview, but one recurrent theme is hostility to a free and open system of international trade. From my perspective as an economics policy wonk, that by itself is disqualifying. And then there are issues of temperament.... he does not show the admirable disposition that I saw in previous presidents and presidential candidates I have had the honor to work for. 2019 departure from Republican Party [ edit ]

NEW Online-Only Problems. Professor Mankiw has written dozens of new end-of-chapter problems that are available only in the digital version of Macroeconomics. Analytic problems ask students to practice shifting the curves in various models and interpreting the results. Numerical problems present models with specific parameter values and ask students to calculate the resulting equilibria. Still other problems incorporate data: They ask students to answer questions about data describing the U.S. economy, which can be easily accessed using Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED).
