Duflo is in the US, and I quoted Piketty in the article, which makes me think you didn't read the whole thing.
As for the Toulouse Schoolf of Ecom...dude, are you serious?
Onfray not really considered? He's one of the most translated French intellectuals and in "Le Point" each week.
North of France is economically empty, which was the joke of the movie "Bienvenue chez les Chtis".
I said that lots of countries suffered from China, but that France had managed their own crisis very badly, unlike the Netherlands, Denmark, or Ireland.
In closing: uninformed comment.
