Dimitris Milonakis, Ben Fine

From Political Economy to Economics

Method, the Social and the Historical in the Evolution of Economic Theory

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Argues that economics has become a monolithic science, variously described as formalistic and autistic with neoclassical orthodoxy reigning supreme. This book details how political economy became economics through the desocialisation and the dehistoricisation of the dismal science, accompanied by its separation from the other social sciences.
