Education and training:Is there a distinction?

Education• Underlying principles• Context• Knowledge‐focused• Concept‐oriented• Often heuristic• Teaches how to arrive at 

the  right answers

Training• Professional practice• Applications• Skills‐focused• Task‐oriented• Often algorithmic• Teaches the right answers

“Animals can be trained.  Only people can be educated.”Nevertheless, perhaps the line between education and trainingis not as bright as this slide may suggest?

Some of the Instructors’ Objectives for the Course

• A better understanding about cities and spatial markets, esp. the market for land. 

• Appreciation of the Wisconsin Tradition in Urban Land Economics 

• How to think like an economist.– How to use ceteris paribus effectively.– The central place of cost‐benefit in our thinking.– Don't be a sap.  Don't take what you see in the papers or on CNN at face value.

• The importance of public policy to market participants.  Conversely, the problems that governments encounter when they set policies without understanding how markets work. 17

A few of the great ideas of economics

• Opportunity cost.• Thinking on the margin.  Set marginal something equal to 

marginal something else.• Diminishing marginal this‐that‐and‐the‐other‐thing.• Substitution in response to a change in relative prices.• Expectations!• When do markets fail?  What can we do about it?• When do governments fail? What can we do about it?

Some of the great questions of urban economics

• Why do cities exist?– Trade; economies of scale; agglomeration.

• Why do some (countries, regions, cities, people) prosper, others not so much?  What determines productivity?

• What do we know about the location of activity, and real estate, within cities?  What form does/should the built environment take?

• What do we know about real estate rents and prices?• How can we better think about urban environmental 

problems?• What roles do/should governments play in urban 

development?

Some other things we’ll discuss

• Economists talk a lot about efficiency.  Can we say anything useful about distribution or equity?

• “Thinking about thinking.”– Are we “scientific?”  Should we be?– Interplay between economics and psychology.– Are you a Bayesian?– How not to be a sap.  Logic, evaluation of sources.

• How to analyze data.• How to tell a story.• How to write good.  (And represent).• Lifelong learning.  “Reading for Life.”• Everybody must be socialized…

What's Different About This Course? (Topics)

• Urban Economics is economics which explicitly considers the location of economic activity within the city.  Urban economics is both theoretical (deductive) and empirical (inductive).

• Urban Land Economics is an important subset of urban economics which focuses on patterns of land use. ULE is primarily empirical.

• Regional Economics is economics which explicitly considers location across cities or regions.

Ely on Urbanization and Urban Land

• Richard Ely established the urban land program in 1920, the real estate program in 1932.  (He also found time to help found the American Economics Association, and be accused ‐‐and acquitted ‐‐ of “sedition”).

• “Under all, the land.”• His chapter on "Urbanization and Urban Land," from his 

textbook with George Wehrwein, discusses historical vs. economic approaches to urbanization, urbanization and economic development, alternative land uses, public regulation of land.

“The Ely trial was dramatized on "Profiles in Courage," the 1960s television series based on the book by John F. Kennedy. Here, as captioned by NBC, "Dan O'Herlihy as Prof. Richard T. Ely and Marsha Hunt as his wife, await the decision of a committee that will affect his future career." Playing Oliver E. Wells in the episode was Edward Asner, later television's "Lou Grant." Leonard Nimoy of "Star Trek" fame was also in the cast.” (Source: Harry Miller, Sifting and Winnowing, Academic Freedom and the Ely Trial, Wisconsin Public Television)

Ratcliff on Urban Land Economics

• Richard Ratcliff built up the program from 1946 to 1964.  Wrote the classic text, Urban Land Economics, among others.

• His "Foreword" to Goldberg and Chinloy's Urban Land Economics emphasized "land as a joint product:"  productivity requires the application of other factors of production.  Analyzing land for particular uses is quite different than analyzing land in the abstract.  This is where urban land economics departs from the earlier classical tradition.

• Ratcliff, and those who follow, also emphasize dynamics of land markets, and the related institutions society develops.  Their approach is heavily inductive.

Andrews on the Place of Urban Land Economics

• Richard Andrews taught 1948 to 1981.  Student of Ratcliff, pioneered economic base analysis, public policy analysis, refined and extended concepts of land use succession and situs.

• How does "urban land economics," as the tradition has evolved at Wisconsin, fit in to a broader view of related disciplines?

Basic Real Estate Relationships, according to Graaskamp

• “Space Consumer Group”– Consumers.  Demand.

• “Space Production Group”– Suppliers.

• “Public Infrastructure Group”– Government.  In addition to infrastructure provision, govt. taxes, subsidizes, and regulates.  Govt. also defines property rights.

“Someone rolled a rock to the entrance of a cave and created an enclosed space for his family – a warmer, more defensible shelter, distinct from the surrounding environment.  This can be called the first real estate development.  Since then, real estate activity has evolved and taken many forms to meet the needs of man and his society.  Once based on need and custom, real estate is now based on social economics and statute.”  James A. Graaskamp, Fundamentals of Real Estate Development.

Reciprocity – a universal value?

• May I do to others as I would that they should do unto me.  Plato• What is hateful to you, do not to your fellow man. This is the law: all the 

rest is commentary. Talmud, Shabbat 31a• None of you [truly] believes until he wishes for his brother what he wishes 

for himself. Number 13 of Imam Al‐Nawawi's Forty Hadiths• Do not do to others what you do not want them to do to you Analects 

15:23• And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise. 

Luke 6:31• This is the sum of duty: do not do to others what would cause pain if done 

to you. Mahabharata 5:1517
