Economics, principles of political economy

Scott,Foresman

The goal of this text has always been to provide students with a solid introduction to the economic issues facing the world today, the methods economists use to study those issues, and the policy problems those issues create. Maintaining the earlier editions' comprehensive examination of the subject, this new edition has been streamlined to make the information more accessible to students. This edition includes updated information on employment, unemployment, the impact of technological change, the costs and benefits of foreign investments, Social Security, debts and deficits, and free trade. The authors have also increased their focus on globalization and international economic growth to expand students' understanding of worldwide issues.

Economics: Principles of Political Economy

<p>Written especially for students with a limited background in economics, this book explains how a market economy functions through an historical overview of economics. It discusses the major schools of economic thought and ideas of the leading economists of each period. Updated throughout, the book emphasizes the relationship between economic theory and policy, and how both are influenced by events, ideologies and changing economic institutions. The author places particular emphasis on Adam Smith, classical and neoclassical economics, Marx, Keynes and the heterodox writers and the political economy of recent decades. It takes a balanced approach to economic theories, and covers contemporary issues such as unemployment, inflation and growth.</p>
