Book Description:
|
After the 'financial crisis' and 'Great Recession', some have called for replacing standard economic theory by heterodox models based upon behavioural approaches. The Responsible Economy argues that there is nothing wrong with economic theory. Instead, the problem has been a 'devil's pact' of simplistic pro-market economics combined with simplistic Keynesian monetary policy.
