The Corruption of Economics

Front Cover
Shepheard-Walwyn, 1994 - Capitalism - 271 pages
The mystery of persistent economic failure can now be explained. Professor Mason Gaffney charges his colleagues with using a theoretical apparatus that is fatally flawed. But he goes further: he accuses the founders of neo-classical economics - the paradigm taught in schools and universities - of acting in bad faith. They distorted the science of econnomics to protect vested interests, and prevented governments adopting policies that would yield prosperity for everyone. How did it happen?
