To be bees or not to be bees
I agree with Ross and others that as individuals or as a group it may be
privately optimal (with respect to the quality of our historical
scholarship) for us to mix more with history departments; I also suspect
that it would be socially sub-optimal for us to be liquidated from
economics departments. The beneficial externalities of historians
pollenating economists are potentially large.
