In recent years politics has seen an increasing role in economic
policymaking for a technocracy of experts. How do politicians feel
about this and how do they balance their political and ethical aims
with economic expertise? Anna Killick offers an in-depth study of
how politicians engage with economists and economic opinion. Based
on interviews with politicians from the main parties in France,
Germany, Denmark, the UK and USA, the book highlights the role
economic opinion plays in politics and the tension that can arise
between democracy and technocracy. Deferring to the experts is
shown to be neither viable nor desirable, and that we should trust
politicians to take the lead role in solving economic problems.
