I've added some initial discussion of the contributions of Prof. Hélène Rey here:. There's a lot more that can be added, if anyone's familiar with her work and contributions.

To what extent does gross private domestic investment determine the rate of growth?
The article on gross private domestic investment says it "is an important component of GDP because it provides an indicator of the future productive capacity of the economy." To what extent does GPDI actually determine the rate of growth?

Please answer at Talk:Economic growth thanks. EllenCT (talk)

Help beefing up Gig economy
This was in article space for a month and a half before being redirected to Temporary work for a year and a half and gig worker for 4 years. Since the gig economy is composed of corporate entities, gig workers and customers, we need to distinguish this article from gig workers. This will appear on the main page in a couple of weeks or months in the WP:DYK section. Please help beef it up.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 04:40, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Stephen Salant notable?
came across Stephen Salant article, appears written by a StephenSalant in 2010, appears he is most likely not notable by the guidelines going by the "Average Professor Test", but I have no background in economics, maybe someone can take a look if anything he is connected to makes the article worth keeping BenErroneous (talk) 05:54, 7 March 2024 (UTC)

Improving Lev Gatovsky's page to its potential
Hi!

I'm a recent user of Wikipedia, and for the last couple of months I've been working on the article about the soviet economist Lev Gatovsky. The reason I got interested in the first place was that the article (a stub at that moment) had only one sentence stating that he had been the first economist to create a theoretical framework for the Soviet Union's economy. But when I searched for him almost nothing appeared. The fact that someone that seemed to have been this important had no imprint on the web got my curiosity.

Since then I have discovered that although he was not the first one, he was one of the firsts to analyze the soviet system from a economic /political-economy perspective. And more: he was the director of the Institute of Economics of the USSR Academy of Sciences for 6 years; him and others got fired from a political magazine by direct order of Stalin for including perspectives that contradicted the party's view; he collaborated on the elaboration of the first and second five-year plans; he also was the main editor of the first "Political Economy" manual of the Soviet Union; volunteered in the 2nd world war, etc. etc.

The difficulty with this author is finding material written directly by him, as some of them only exist in physical form (books, journals, etc.) and most of what can be found online are other authors talking about him. Still, there are plenty of books mentioning him as well as articles in russian from the time (that can be translated online), which kind of indicates the relevance it had. I also have a list of materials I know / suspect that have to do with him but I havent had the time to look at yet.

I've been working on this alone for the moment, and with some superficial research I managed to get plenty of interesting material (economic, political, and historic). I am sure that with more people doing research, translating, and summarizing, we could make this article truly great.

I hope I managed to get your interest and so you decide to help. Thanks in advance! FranGallego33 (talk) 15:44, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

Draft:Economic imperialism
Hi, I've created a draft at Draft:Economic imperialism as this seems to be a big omission in wikipedia's coverage, and was wondering whether anyone would be interested in collaborating to write and structure it, including defining scope and gathering sources. Economic imperialism currently links to Theory of imperialism. Alexanderkowal (talk) 11:25, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
