Introduction: The Use and Misuse of Economic Ideas1: What Models Do2: The Science of Economic Modeling3: Navigating among Models4: Models and Theories5: When Economists Go Wrong6: Economics and Its CriticsEpilogue: The Twenty Commandments
Synopsis
The economics profession has become a favourite punching bag in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. Economists are widely reviled and their influence derided by the general public. Yet their services have never been in greater demand. To unravel the paradox, we need to understand both the strengths and weaknesses of economics. Dani Rodrik argues that the multiplicity of theoretical frameworks - what economists call 'models' that exist side by side is economics' great strength. Economists are trained to hold diverse, possibly contradictory models of the world in their minds. This is what allows them, when they do their job right, to comprehend the world, make useful suggestions for improving it, and to advance their stock of knowledge over time. In short, it is what makes economics a 'science' a different kind of science from physics or some other natural sciences, but a science nonetheless. But syncretism is not a comfortable state of mind, and economists often jettison it for misplaced confidence and arrogance, especially when they confront questions of public policy. Economists are prone to fads and fashions, and behave too often as if their discipline is about the search for the model that works always and everywhere, rather than a portfolio of models. Their training lets them down when it comes to navigating among diverse models and figuring out which one applies where. Ideology and political preferences frequently substitute for analysis in choosing among models. So the book offers both a defence and critique of economics. Economists' way of thinking about social phenomena has great advantages. But the flexible, contextual nature of economics is also its Achilles' heel in the hands of clumsy practitioners., The economics profession has become a favourite punching bag in the aftermath of the global financial crisis.

- s***u (217)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoI purchased Gods of Asgard graphic novel on 9/3 and it arrived on 9/11. It was as described and as pictured, gently used and clean with no markings. Tracking the order was easy and it arrived by USPS with no damage. I am happy 😀 with my purchase, fair purchase price and that the eBay Seller included the shipping costs into the purchase price.🏆 The eBay seller packaged well. I would recommend this eBay Seller and their store.👍🏼 It was nice doing business with them. Thank you
- i***. (123)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoOverall, positive experience since seller made some effort to make things right. Seller did not pack this book well at all. Book arrived damaged due to insufficient packing (book was packed in a flimsy shipping bag). Was clearly creased on the spine despite "very good" description. Seller helped by giving me a partial refund. Still disappointed in the poor packing. Hopefully they learn to pack properly otherwise I won't be buying again from them.
