*Editorial*Like many heterodox economists, my [TJ's] new year began with
the ASSA meetings in Chicago. It was very nice to meet many old and new
friends. There were so many interesting heterodox sessions and activities.
In particular, those young (and young-at-heart) heterodox economists who
attended the Pedagogy and Course Design Workshop organized by Geoffrey
Schneider (along with the support from heterodox journals and associations)
told me that it was a well-organized and most helpful workshop. Hope we can
have a similar or even better workshop at the next ASSA meeting in San
Diego (see early calls for papers for the 2013
ASSA<http://heterodoxnews.com/n/htn125.html#ASSA_2013_US_5686733558084308__2966210566100286>
meetings
here--HES, LERA, and URPE).

About a year ago, a number of heterodox economists endorsed a letter urging
that ''the AEA create and then promote adherence to a professional code of
ethics that at a minimum requires transparency with respect to potential
conflicts of interest'' (see the letter
here<http://heterodoxnews.com/htnf/htn125/letter-to-aea2011.pdf>).
In response to the letter the AEA Executive Committee announced on January
5, 2012 that AEA ''adopted extensions to its principles for authors’
disclosures of potential conflicts of interest in the AEA’s publications.''
See the press release on this
here<http://heterodoxnews.com/n/htn125.html#American_Economics_Association>
.

There have been some very interesting pieces on heterodox economics in the
mainstream media.  In particular,*The Economist* magazine ran a long
article that included a look at Austrian economics, the so-called Market
Monetarist approach, and Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) or what they labeled
Neo-Chartalism, where Warren Mosler and UMKC were featured prominently.
MMT in particular has been getting a lot of coverage in the Blogosphere.
You can find links to some of these interesting discussions in the media
section<http://heterodoxnews.com/n/htn125.html#Heterodox_Economics_in_the_Med_4017810700412434>
and
debates on Randy Wray's
blog<http://www.creditwritedowns.com/2012/01/modern-money-theory.html>
.

Lastly, we'd like call your attention to our own efforts to organize a
heterodox economic activity taking place at Buffalo State College on March
2nd. It is a workshop and a public lecture devoted to heterodox
microeconomics <http://heterodoxnews.com/micro>. Both events are free and
open to the public. We hope many heterodox economists in the region can
join us. If you are interested, contact Tae-Hee at taeheejo at gmail.com.

Happy new year to all and we wish we have many exciting news for heterodox
economists around the world!

In solidarity,

Tae-Hee Jo and Ted Schmidt, Editors
