Here is a bracing deconstruction of the framework for understanding the world that is learned as gospel in Economics 101, regardless of its imaginary assumptions and misleading half-truths.
Economism: an ideology that distorts the valid principles and tools of introductory college economics, propagated by self-styled experts, zealous lobbyists, clueless politicians, and ignorant pundits.
In order to illuminate the fallacies of economism, James Kwak first offers a primer on supply and demand, market equilibrium, and social welfare: the underpinnings of most popular economic arguments. Then he provides a historical account of how economism became a prevalent mode of thought in the United States—focusing on the people who packaged Econ 101 into sound bites that were then repeated until they took on the aura of truth. He shows us how issues of moment in contemporary American society—labor markets, taxes, finance, health care, and international trade, among others—are shaped by economism, demonstrating in each case with clarity and élan how, because of its failure to reflect the complexities of our world, economism has had a deleterious influence on policies that affect hundreds of millions of Americans.
【看到封底Jedediah Purdy, Ian Ayres, Jacob Hacker等一干大神的推荐,便毫不犹豫地下单了】清晰明快地解释了以简单的Supply-demand模型为中心的“经济学中心主义”(Economism),作为一种意识形态(ideology)如何伪装成一种中立的方法论,进而加剧了税收、最低工资、医疗保障、贷款等诸领域中政策的不平等倾向。对于我等经济学小白而言入门不错,对经济学内行人来说或许有些浅进。
