Minsky proposed further controls of finance to limit the creation of “ liquidity ” and to “ promote smaller and simpler organizations weighted more toward direct financing .”

Minsky, however, supported traditional banking regulation and advocated further controls of finance to “ promote smaller and simpler organizations weighted more toward direct financing .” Writing from a similar “ neo-Keynesian perspective, Jan Kregel concluded that after World War II non-regulated financial companies, supported by regulatory actions, developed means to provide bank products (“ liquidity and lending accommodation ”) more cheaply than commercial banks through the “ capital markets .” Kregel argued this led banking regulators to eliminate Glass-Steagall restrictions to permit banks to “ duplicate these structures ” using the capital markets “ until there was virtually no difference in the activities of FDIC-insured commercial banks and investment banks .”

In some counter machine models ( e. g. Melzak ( 1961 ), Minsky ( 1961 )) and most RAM and RASP models more than one object / mark can be added or removed in one operation with " addition " and usually " subtraction "; sometimes with " multiplication " and / or " division ".

In a step-by-step process, Minsky constructs a model of human intelligence which is built up from the interactions of simple parts called agents, which are themselves mindless.

Researchers such as Marvin Minsky would write computer programs in languages such as LISP to attempt to formally characterize the steps that human beings went through, for instance, in making decisions and solving problems, in the hope of better understanding human thought, and also in the hope of creating artificial minds.

Although he rejected this scholarship, Martin Mayer wrote in 1997 that since the late 1980s it had been “ clear ” that continuing the Glass-Steagall prohibitions was only “ permitting a handful of large investment houses and hedge funds to charge monopoly rents for their services without protecting corporate America, investors, or the banks .” Hyman Minsky, who disputed the benefits of “ universal banking ,” wrote in 1995 testimony prepared for Congress that “ repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act, in itself, would neither benefit nor harm the economy of the United States to any significant extent .” In 1974 Mayer had quoted Minsky as stating a 1971 presidential commission ( the “ Hunt Commission ”) was repeating the errors of history when it proposed relaxing Glass-Steagall and other legislation from the 1930s.

The subsequent conferences have resulted in a move to more interdisciplinary approaches with researchers aiming to combine the contextuality of archaeological research, which broadly describes the state of archaeoastronomy today, rather than merely establishing the existence of ancient astronomies archaeoastronomers seek to explain why people would have an interest in the night sky.

Rava states in the Babylonian Talmud that although Ezekiel describes the appearance of the throne of God ( Merkabah ), this is not because he had seen more than the prophet Isaiah, but rather because the latter was more accustomed to such visions ; for the relation of the two prophets is that of a courtier to a peasant, the latter of whom would always describe a royal court more floridly than the former, to whom such things would be familiar.
