How should we address today's big problems, and what we can take
from icons of economics past? How would John Maynard Keynes have
resolved today's debt problem, or how would Adam Smith have
assessed the European carbon emission trading market? This book
applies the ideas of ten renowned economists (Marx, Minsky, Keynes,
Knight, Bergmann, Veblen, Sen, Myrdal, Smith, Robinson) to real
world economic problems, directly or indirectly related to the
causes and consequences of the 2008 financial crisis. Each chapter
presents an economist, and structures the 'problem', the 'insight'
(the economist's idea), the 'economist' (short bio), and two
'practices' offering real-world alternatives. This book presents a
lively and original approach that will be of interest to economists
and non-economists alike, discussing key elements of an economics
for a postcapitalist economy and connecting policy insights to
real-world problems of today.
