Synopsis
This book examines the subtle fallacies that can undermine the reasoning of even trained economists, despite their learning and discipline. The author contends that these errors stem from popular political philosophies, a lack of any political philosophy, a mistaken aversion to theory, the shortcomings of language, and the mishandling of time distinctions. By exploring these elements, the book provides a deeper understanding of economics and its complexities. Through analyzing the influence of watchwords like Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity, and the impact of social and political theories on economic thought, the author sheds light on how economists' biases and assumptions can shape their conclusions. This insightful analysis is essential reading for economists, students, and anyone seeking to comprehend the intricacies of political economy.
