The content of this book formed part of an introduction to
economics. Weidenfeld and Nicolson published an english translation
in 1971: Econ- ics. A critical approach. Since several colleagues
thought that the critical comments on various theories might
discourage students, I divided this introduction into two parts.
Were as the first part deals with economic theory as such, the
present publication contains the subject matter of the second part,
namely the former appraisal sections. The first edition benefited
from comment by Professor P. Hennipman, who, although I took his
comment into consideration as far as possible, did not always share
my views. The appendix to the first edition (Economic Doctrines)
has been omitted. I have used brief portions of it in a new
chapter, 'Economic doctrines and economic policy'. I have added a
chapter entitled 'Economic theory and economic policy' and brought
up to date the other chapters. This book has no intention of
instructing fellow economists. It is intended as a complement to an
introductory course on economics, which for the most part does not
deal systematically with (or is even totally lacking in) critical
comments. Many economists consider any criticism of economic theory
to be a form of lese-majeste. On the other hand, a critical
approach should not be the monopoly of left-wing authors.
