Abstract

writing and understanding that can be seen manifesting throughout Macroeconomics: An Introduction. This therefore makes the reading of this textbook a unique and intellectual journey of varied ‘being and becoming’. Also because of the above, this book comes as an exception to the mainstream understanding of macroeconomics. It is this understanding which is precisely what is needed to be called for in this 21st century too – a brushing away from mainstream economic science, to a pluralistic macro way of understanding economics. This is precisely what makes this textbook more social and not really a textbook for anybody to just study and get good marks. Such particular characteristic hence also naturally make this book worthwhile in considering for inclusion in university syllabi, without any geographical boundaries established. Hence, this perfection of antagonism well mastered is what makes this textbook a lively read, as it allows one to learn and unlearn the mythical and normative establishments that have been injected on to us from time immemorial.

书评:肮脏
写作和理解能力在宏观经济学导论中有所体现。因此,这使得阅读这本教科书成为一个独特的和不同的“存在和成为”的智力之旅。也正因为上述原因,这本书成为主流宏观经济学理解的一个例外。这种理解正是21世纪所需要的——从主流经济科学转向理解经济学的多元宏观方式。正是这一点使这本教科书更具社交性,而不是一本让任何人学习并取得好成绩的教科书。因此,这种特殊的特点也自然使这本书值得考虑纳入大学教学大纲,没有任何地理界限的建立。因此,这种对抗性的完美把握使这本教科书成为一本生动的读物,因为它允许人们学习和摒弃自古以来灌输给我们的神话和规范制度。
