Conclusion: dissenters and victors. 330 $aThe economics profession has a lot to answer for. After the late 1970s, the ideas of influential economists have justified policies that have made the world more prone to economic crisis, remarkably less equal, more polluted and less secure than it might be. How could ideas and policies that proved to be such an abject failure come to dominate the economic landscape? By critically examining the work of the most famous economists of the neoliberal period including Alan Greenspan, Joseph Stiglitz and Paul Krugman, the authors Robert Chernomas and Ian Hudson demonstrate that many of those who rose to prominence did so primarily because of their defence of, and contribution to, rising corporate profits and not their ability to predict or explain economic events. An important and controversial book, 'The Profit Doctrine' exposes the uses and abuses of mainstream economic canons, identify those responsible and reaffirm the primacy of political economy. 606 $aNeoliberalism 610 $aEconomics 610 $aNeoliberalism 610 $aeconomics 610 $aMilton Friedman 610 $aAlan Greenspan 610 $aJoseph Stiglitz 610 $aPaul Krugman 610 $aPublic choice 610 $aUnemployment 615 0$aNeoliberalism. 676 $a320.513 700 $aChernomas$b Robert$0923272 702 $aHudson$b Ian$f1967- 801 0$bWaSeSS 801 1$bWaSeSS 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910157803403321 996 $aThe profit doctrine$92214567 997 $aUNINA
