More from Lars Syll on the poverty of conventional economics

More from Lars Syll on the poverty of conventional economics

1. The fundamental problem of modern economics
quoting Tony Lawson

Using inappropriate methodology.



2. Neoclassical economics – empty and uninformative storytelling
quoting Hans Albert

Tautology or nonsense.

quoting Jakob Kapeller

Selectively fitting the model to the data after the fact. Reminiscent of epicycles.
