The complex economic problems of the 21st century require a
pluralist, real-world oriented and innovative discipline of
economics that is capable of addressing and teaching these issues
to students. This volume is a state-of-the-art compilation of
diverse, innovative and international perspectives on the
rationales for and pathways towards pluralist economics teaching.
It fosters constructive controversy aiming to incite authors and
commentators to engage in fruitful debates. This volume addresses a
number of key questions: Why is it important for a social science
to engage in pluralistic teaching? What issues does pluralist
teaching face in different national contexts? Which traditions and
practices in economic teaching make pluralist teaching difficult?
What makes economics as a canonical textbook science particular and
how could the rigid textbook system be innovated in a meaningful
way? What can we learn from school education and other social
science disciplines? Through examining these issues the editors
have created a pluralist but cohesive book on teaching economics in
the contemporary classroom drawing from ideas and examples from
around the world. Advancing Pluralism in Teaching Economics offers
a valuable insight into the methodology and application of
pluralist economics teaching. It will be a great resource for those
teaching economics at various levels, as well as researchers.
