Economists are under fire, but questions concerning exactly how to redeem the discipline remain unanswered. In this provocative book, renowned economist Meghnad Desai investigates the evolution of economics and maps its trajectory against the occurrence of major political events to provide a definitive answer. Desai underscores the contribution of hubris to economists' calamitous lack of foresight, and he makes a persuasive case for the profession to re-engage with the history of economic thought. He dismisses the notion that one over-arching paradigm can resolve all economic eventualities while urging that an array of already-available theories and approaches be considered anew for the insights they may provide toward preventing future economic catastrophes. With an accessible style and keen common sense, Desai offers a fresh perspective on some of the most important economic issues of our time. 000728825 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000728825 650_0 $$aEconomic forecasting. 000728825 650_0 $$aFinancial crises. 000728825 650_0 $$aEconomic history. 000728825 650_0 $$aEconomics$$xPhilosophy. 000728825 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aDesai, Meghnad.$$tHubris.$$dNew Haven, [Connecticut] : Yale University Press, [2015]$$z9780300213546$$w(DLC) 2015933801$$w(OCoLC)909413719 000728825 8520_ $$bacq 000728825 85280 $$bebk$$hEbrary 000728825 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=3421578$$zOnline Access 000728825 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:728825$$pGLOBAL_SET 000728825 980__ $$aEBOOK 000728825 980__ $$aBIB 000728825 982__ $$aEbook 000728825 983__ $$aOnline
