The Real Economy

More about the book

Exploring the essence of the economy, Jonathan Levy challenges conventional definitions and critiques the methods of modern economics. He draws on historical debates and the ideas of thinkers like Thorstein Veblen and John Maynard Keynes to propose a more comprehensive theory that embraces empirical and historical analysis. Covering topics such as capitalism, radical uncertainty, and globalization, this work invites a deeper discussion about the economy's meaning and relevance across social sciences and humanities.
