ABSTRACT

Published in 1997, this postmodern critique provides a discourse on internal dynamics of the economics world view, suggesting for future societal wellbeing that we simply do not criticize economics but dispense it altogether.  It argues that in the modern era economics have become obsolete as we live in a society riddled with corruption.
