ABSTRACT

In the post-autistic economics newsletter, issue no. 4, James K. Galbraith wrote a very interesting and convincing reply to Robert Solow. In the same issue, Joseph Halevi aptly described what he calls a “Franco-American neoclassical alliance,” pointing out that Blanchard’s reply to the students’ manifesto was dogmatic and hollow. I would like to jump into the fray and to offer some points in support of a post-autistic approach to teaching, learning and doing economics.
