Abstract

For those of us who are engaged, very broadly, in alternative paradigms in economics, teaching foundational microeconomics and macroeconomics is a challenge. Macroeconomics through History of Thought Undergraduate microeconomics and macroeconomics textbooks serve a few different functions. Instead of treating paradigm choice in macroeconomics as a positivist contest of correct ideas, Thomas engages in forthright discussion with the reader about the goal of I doing i macroeconomics, which cannot be disentangled from political change.
