Diane Coyle — Economies and economics

As part of the preparation for the new course I’m teaching at the University of Manchester this autumn, Economics for Public Policy, I’ve been looking again at Microeconomics: Behavior, Institutions and Evolution by Sam Bowles. It’s a decade old now but still pretty unique in its approach, which is rooted in social interactions and institutions rather than the atomised individuals of the standard micro course. In other words, it’s about economies, and not ‘economics’.
