In 1517, Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to the wall of
Wittenberg church. He argued that the Church's internally
consistent but absurd doctrines had pickled into a dogmatic
structure of untruth. It was time for a Reformation. Half a
millennium later, Steve Keen argues that economics needs its own
Reformation. In Debunking Economics, he eviscerated an intellectual
church - neoclassical economics - that systematically ignores its
own empirical untruths and logical fallacies, and yet is still
mysteriously worshipped by its scholarly high priests. In this
book, he presents his Reformation: a New Economics, which tackles
serious issues that today's economic priesthood ignores, such as
money, energy and ecological sustainability. It gives us hope that
we can save our economies from collapse and the planet from
ecological catastrophe. Performing this task with his usual panache
and wit, Steve Keen's new book is unmissable to anyone who has
noticed that the economics Emperor is naked and would like him to
put on some clothes.
