Marginal Revolution University

Description

• Founded in 2012 by George Mason University economics professors Tyler Cowen and Alex Tabarrok, Marginal Revolution University is building the worlds largest online library of free economics education videos -- currently weighing in at more than 800 videos.Since 2003, Tyler and Alex have co-authored a popular economics blog called Marginal Revolution -- hence the name of this educational platform. What is the marginal revolution exactly? The term refers to an exciting time in the history of economics when several leading nineteenth century thinkers (Walrus, Menger, and Jevons) formalized what is now known as marginalism theory. In other words, thinking on the margin, which is something you too will master as you dive into MRU videos. We also like the idea that revolutions are made one idea and one person at a time.Tyler and Alex are also authors of the widely used principles of economics textbooks, Modern Principles of Microeconomics and Modern Principles of Macroeconomics. The textbooks and the videos go great together but the videos work with any textbook or without a textbook at all!Our small, distributed team operates out of Arlington, VA and around the the globe to create Marginal Revolution University content thats used worldwide (interested in joining us?). Whether its an overview of micro and macro principles, a duel between leading thinkers, or a primer on the rise and fall of Chinas economy, MRUs videos bring viewers up to speed on what they need to know about economics.And yes, as a non-profit, our resources are free(!) and easily accessible on both our website and YouTube.
