Once upon a time, finance was the scientific field where the most passionate conflicts between ideological opponents were conducted. The highest form of political confrontation. The equations of economists reflected alternative views on the good society. Their mathematics were passionate. Their geometry dripped with ideological enthusiasm.
Today, nothing reminds us of that era. Today, finance is simply tiresome. Our manuals resemble instructions for using a software package. To the "novices" we say: we may disagree among ourselves, but you are not mature enough to listen to us argue. Learn your manuals "by heart", and then come and discuss with us. Unfortunately, few wait. They abandon us daily and en masse, turning to pseudo-sciences such as marketing, advertising, etc.
Yanis Varoufakis' "Political Economy" aims to breathe new life into the teaching of economics. To ignite passions by igniting reason. To teach economic theory by subjecting it, from the first page, to criticism. To guide beginners through the wild beauties of the world of economic ideas. To protect them from "sterile" manuals that pretend that economics is a series of solved problems. To chart a middle ground between technical skills and philosophical predisposition; between cold geometric logic and political passion; between the mathematical representation of theorems and the continuous questioning of their axioms; between commitment to explaining empirical "data" and doubt about what is "given". The book:
-Summarizes the essence of each branch of economic science
-Studies the extensions of these basic concepts in the theory of international trade, globalization, monetary policy, etc.
-Asks: What is the ultimate significance of economic theory today? Why is economics in such a crisis?
