RR coming back soon to his home country
I don't think so. He rejected various offers in the past, so no university is certainly willing to go through the same theater with him again and again.
Actually, he rejected one W3 offer in his life. In Freiburg. That’s it. Where do these myths come from? What is unusual about one rejection?
Accepting and essentially never turning up and accepting and leaving after one year also isn't the best thing to do
Who is this?
Do we have to discuss this again? He won`t come back. Good for Germany. And he is not even in the ranking. The real quality is obviously lower than he perceives.
RB would be an enourmous benefit to German Academia. He really cares about the students and our profession.

RB belongs to the most successful profs from Germany.

Yeah sure, because there's no one else in Germany who cares about the students and our profession. All German professors are lazy do-nothings who couldn't care less about the place. We need the savior from abroad.
"Wir waren zu optimistisch" sagt er Im Deutschlandfunk.
"Kaffeesatz" ist richtig, wie schon Oskar Morgenstern wusste: https://books.google.de/books/about/Wirtschaftsprognose.html?id=6zNBAAAAIAAJ&redir_esc=y
Heutzutage fitten Sie Modelle mit vielen Variablen an die Daten und drehen dann noch ein wenig nach Gefühl daran herum.

So much truth in this Statement.

Of course 'cause the loudest are always right and the best.

People who care about students don't teach them the utter nonsense known as modern macro.

Scholars thinking like this about modern macro shouldn't doing research at all. Anyway, complaining on Twitter about the German system but parallel reducing teaching load by migrating to the US indicates also one doesn't care about students. True heros fighting against bureaucracy in German university and try there best to teach with an pure overload on admin while their research falls behind.
The value of many second tier general interest journals and top field journals according to the current forschungsmonitoring journal ranking is lower compared to the 2017 ranking. For example the Journal of Economic Theory SJR weigths in the 2017 Ranking were:
1998: 0.621
1999: 0.529
2000: 0.444
2001: 0.475
2002: 0.571
2003: 0.655
2004: 0.682
2005: 0.603
etc.
According to the current journal ranking we have
1998: 0.407
1999: 0.361
2000: 0.328
2001: 0.324
2002: 0.356
2003: 0.372
2004: 0.384
2005: 0.350
etc. for JET.
This is just an example and appears to be systematic. Very good econ journals are now ranked closer to junk journals, which clearly favors spammers. Is there a rationale for the new weights other than that the 2017 journal ranking did not produce the desired results?
