Synopsis

Economic Principles and Problems: A Pluralistic Introduction offers a comprehensive introduction to the major perspectives in modern economics, including mainstream and heterodox approaches. Through providing multiple views of markets and how they work, it leaves readers better able to understand and analyze the complex behaviors of consumers, firms, and government officials, as well as the likely impact of a variety of economic events and policies.

Including explicit coverage of mainstream economics and the major heterodox schools of economic thought--institutionalists, feminists, radical political economists, post-Keynesians, Austrians, and social economists--it allows the reader to choose which ideas they find most compelling in explaining modern economic realities. This second edition includes new and expanded material on international trade (to include disintegration and Brexit), climate issues and perspectives, including degrowth, inter-temporal exchanges and games, non-market exchanges, job opportunities, cost of education, and social media as an industry, as well as additional examples and case studies. The book's suite of digital resources has been updated to include a test bank of multiple-choice and short-answer questions and answers, end-of-chapter questions and answers, and PowerPoint slides.

Written in an engaging style and focused on real-world examples, this textbook brings economics to life. Economic Principles and Problems offers the most contemporary and complete package for any pluralist economics class.
