Summary |
This lively introduction to heterdox economics provides a critique of the standard introductory macroeconomics curriculum from the perspective of another theoretical lens. It enables students and instructors to escape the confines that most standard textbooks impose on economic analysis, and allows them to pusue and support a broader range of ideas about the causes and appropriate policy responses to a wide range of economic concerns. |
