ABSTRACT

The bicentenary of The Wealth of Nations has passed, and so has the centenary of the neoclassical revolution in economics. Yet the present state of dynamic economic theory leaves very much to be desired and appears to show little sign of significant improvement in the near future. Structured into 5 main topics, the main purpose of ‘Dynamic Economics Systems ’is to present arguments for this contention and to start developing the tools which are needed to make progress in understanding truly dynamic economic systems. First published in 2000.
