In this course you'll learn about the tools used by scientists to understand complex systems. The topics you'll learn about include dynamics, chaos, fractals, information theory, self-organization, agent-based modeling, and networks. Level: avancé Introduction to Complexity Melanie Mitchel, Santiago Guisasola Santa Fe Institute Economic theory is currently at a crossroads, where many leading mainstream economists are calling for a more realistic and practical orientation for economic science. Indeed, many are suggesting that economics should be reconstructed on evolutionary lines.
This book is about the application to economics of evolutionary ideas from biology.

The volume, released by YSI’s Economic Development Working Group, comprises interviews with 13 scholars from around the world who express a variety of viewpoints on the meaning and relevance of dependency theory in today’s context. 2017 Level: avancé Dialogues on Development Ushehwedu Kufakurinani, Ingrid Harvold Kvangraven, Frutuoso Santanta, Maria Dyveke Styve (ed.) Young Scholar Initiative The notion that the demand and supply side are independent is a key feature of textbook undergraduate economics and of modern macroeconomic models. Economic output is thought to be constrained by the productive capabilities of the economy - the ‘supply-side' - through technology, demographics and capital investment. In the short run a boost in demand may increase GDP and employment due to frictions such as sticky wages, but over the long-term successive rises in demand without corresponding improvements on the supply side can only create inflation as the economy reaches capacity. In this post I will explore the alternative idea of demand-led growth, where an increase in demand can translate into long-run supply side gains. This theory is most commonly associated with post-Keynesian economics, though it has been increasingly recognised in the mainstream literature. 2020 Level: débutant It’s Demand All the Way Down Cahal Moran Rethinking Economics This module examines current socio-political issues through the lens of pluralism, that is pluralism of theory, pluralism of method and interdisciplinary pluralism 2020 Level: débutant Pluralist Economic Analysis Sophia Kuehnlenz Manchester Metropolitan University The Austrian tradition in economic thought had a profound influence on the development of post-war economics including neoclassical orthodoxy, game theory, public choice, behavioral economics, experimental economics and complexity economics. 2008 Level: avancé Explorations in Austrian Economics Roger Koppl Emerald Group Publishing The book’s central theme is to develop a new theory of speculative capital related to other forms of capital, the world market, and the state.

In this course, we will explore this exciting and self-consciously political and transformative field. 2015 Level: débutant Feminist Economics Professor Julie Matthaei (Wellesley College) Wellesley College p>Twenty-first-century economists will have to understand and improve a post-Cold War world in which no single economic theory or system holds the key to human betterment. Heterodox economists have much to contribute to this effort, as a wave of pluralism spawns new lines of research and new dialogues among non-mainstream economists. 2008 Level: avancé Future Directions for Heterodox Economics John T. Harvey, Robert F. Garnett, Robert F. Garnett, Jr. University of Michigan Press In this book the author develops a new approach to uncertainty in economics, which calls for a fundamental change in the methodology of economics. It provides a comprehensive overview and critical appraisal of the economic theory of uncertainty and shows that uncertainty was originally conceptualized both as an epistemic and an ontological problem. 2017 Level: avancé Uncertainty in Economics Julia Köhn Springer International Publishing This book tells the story of the search for disequilibrium micro-foundations for macroeconomic theory, from the disequilibrium theories of Patinkin, Clower and Leijonhufvud to recent dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models with imperfect competition. 2014 Level: expert Transforming Modern Macroeconomics Backhouse, Roger; Boianovsky, Mauro Cambridge University Press This book gives a very clear overview of the history of Macroeconomics and how it has evolved. It reflects on the different perspectives and debates that have defined the field, with valuable insight into the history and theory of economic policy. 2005 Level: avancé Modern Macroeconomics Brian Snowdon and Howard Vane E. Elgar Despite some diversification modern economics still attracts a great deal of criticism. This is largely due to highly unrealistic assumptions underpinning economic theory, explanatory failure, poor policy framing, and a dubious focus on prediction. Many argue that flaws continue to owe much of their shortcomings to neoclassical economics. 2015 Level: débutant What is Neoclassical Economics? Morgan, Jamie Routledge In economics the dominant framework for exploring the structure of market economies is provided by the neoclassical school of thought. This text aims to show how neoclassical theory is used to model market mechanisms, both in particular markets and in the market economy as a whole. 2001 Level: avancé Microeconomics - Neoclassical and Institutionalist Perspectives on Economic Behaviour Himmelweit, Susan; Simonetti, Roberto; Trigg, Andrew B.

In recent times, the econophysics literature has demonstrated that bottom incomes follow an exponential distribution, top incomes follow a Pareto, profit rates display a tent-shaped distribution. This paper is concerned with the theory underlying various explanations of these phenomena. Traditional econophysics relies on energy-conserving “particle collision” models in which simulation is often used to derive a stationary distribution. Those in the Jaynesian tradition rely on entropy maximization, subject to certain constraints, to infer the final distribution. This paper argues that economic phenomena should be derived as results of explicit economic processes. For instance, the entry and exit process motivated by supply decisions of firms underlies the drift-diffusion form of wage, interest and profit rates arbitrage. These processes give rise to stationary distributions that turn out to be also entropy maximizing. In arbitrage approach, entropy maximization is a result. In the Jaynesian approaches, entropy maximization is the means. 2019 Level: avancé The Econ in Econophysics Anwar Shaikh New School for Social Research, Department of Economics Readers of economic and political theory as well as students of economic planning will appreciate this classic, now available for the first time in English.

Hoover B. Blackwell The productive work of widely distributed academic research has contributed substantially, over the postwar period, to important advances in our understanding. It has also offered a clearer recognition of many unresolved problems. Never theless, the progress achieved over the last decades, ex hibited by the systematic application of "theory" to actual issues and observable problems, could not overcome a per vasive sense of dissatisfaction. 2012 Level: avancé Economics Social Institutions K.
