Описание:
In the wake of the financial crisis and the Great Recession, economics seems anything but a science. In this sharp, masterfully argued book, Dani Rodrik, a leading critic from within, takes a close look at economics to examine when it falls short and when it works, to give a surprisingly upbeat account of the discipline.
Drawing on the history of the field and his deep experience as a practitioner, Rodrik argues that economics can be a powerful tool that improves the world--but only when economists abandon universal theories and focus on getting the context right. Economics Rules argues that the discipline's much-derided mathematical models are its true strength. Models are the tools that make economics a science.
Too often, however, economists mistake a model for the model that applies everywhere and at all times. In six chapters that trace his discipline from Adam Smith to present-day work on globalization, Rodrik shows how diverse situations call for different models. Each model tells a partial story about how the world works. These stories offer wide-ranging, and sometimes contradictory, lessons--just as children's fables offer diverse morals.
Whether the question concerns the rise of global inequality, the consequences of free trade, or the value of deficit spending, Rodrik explains how using the right models can deliver valuable new insights about social reality and public policy. Beyond the science, economics requires the craft to apply suitable models to the context.
The 2008 collapse of Lehman Brothers challenged many economists' deepest assumptions about free markets. Rodrik reveals that economists' model toolkit is much richer than these free-market models. With pragmatic model selection, economists can develop successful antipoverty programs in Mexico, growth strategies in Africa, and intelligent remedies for domestic inequality.
At once a forceful critique and defense of the discipline, Economics Rules charts a path toward a more humble but more effective science.

Описание: The third of three volumes containing edited papers and a commentary presented at the Ninth World Congress of the Econometric Society, held in London in August 2005. Written by leading specialists in their fields, these volumes provide a unique survey of progress in the discipline.
In this spirited and provocative book, Edward Leamer turns an examinationof the Heckscher--Ohlin framework for global competition into an opportunity toconsider the craft of economics: what economists do, what they should do, and whatthey shouldn't do. Claiming "a lifetime relationship withHeckscher--Ohlin," Leamer argues that Bertil Ohlin's original idea offeredsomething useful though vague and not necessarily valid; the economists who latertranslated his ideas into mathematical theorems offered something precise and validbut not necessarily useful. He argues further that the best economists keep formaland informal thinking in balance. An Ohlinesque mostly prose style can let in faultythinking and fuzzy communication; a mostly math style allows misplaced emphasis andopaque communication. Leamer writes that today's model- and math-driven economicsneeds more prose and less math. Leamer shows that the Heckscher--Ohlin framework isstill useful, and that there is still much work to be done with it. But he issues acaveat about economists: "What we do is not science, it's fiction andjournalism." Economic theory, he writes, is fiction (stories, loosely connectedto the facts); data analysis is journalism (facts, loosely connected to thestories). Rather than titling the two sections of his book Theory and Evidence, hecalls them Economic Fiction and Econometric Journalism, explaining, "If youfind that startling, that's good. I am trying to keep you awake."
Описание: In the graveyard of economic ideology, dead ideas stalk the land. This title explains how these dead ideas walk among us - and why we must find a way to kill them once and for all if we are to avoid an even bigger financial crisis in the future.
