Blog Redesign

The Council on Foreign Relations—obviously—has adopted a new web format, and that extends to CFR blogs.

The new blog design doesn’t support comments. I will miss the interaction. My email is available on my biography page, and I usually tweet out blog posts @Brad_Setser.

For the time being, the graphs on many of my legacy posts aren’t displaying, and the legacy links are at times not being redirected to the new site. Those problems should be fixed soon.

The new format is consistent with a lot of modern digital platforms, and designed to look good on mobile devices and the like. I am not sure the result of optimization for digital devices is also optimal for the presentation of detailed balance of payments analysis. So I will be experimenting a bit to find a style that feels comfortable on the new platform, if that makes any sense.
