In this volume, Michel Verdon undertakes a path-breaking analysis of the three major paradigms in economics: Marxian economics, neo-classical economics and Keynesian economics. Each of these, he argues, has an inherent cosmology, and in the case of both Marxian and neo-classical economics these preclude the development of a language which can accurately describe and analyse an economy.Routledge studies in the history of economics ;7.Keynesian economicsMarxian economicsNeoclassical school of economicsElectronic books.Keynesian economics.Marxian economics.Neoclassical school of economics.330.15/6Verdon Michel238434MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910455919103321Keynes and the classics661412UNINA
