And who cooked Adam Smith's dinner? Starting with Smith's answer on the origin of a dinner, Katrine Marçal problematizes and illustrates how unpaid labour was and is still being ignored by economic theory and how the homo economics represents characteristics perceived as male. 2015 Level: leicht How Economics Forgot about Women Katrine Marçal TEDx Talks Hartmut Kliemt first traces the concept of the homo oeconomicus back to the philosophy of Spinoza and Hobbes. Then he addresses criticisms of this concept in particular by discussing the ultimatum game as a strong piece of counterevidence. After this, he outlines a difference in the behavioural sciences between internal perspectives that seek to understand actors' cognitive processes and external perspectives, which look at observed behaviour only. 2012 Level: mittel Verhaltensökonomik Hartmut Kliemt Netzwerk Plurale Ökonomik Walter Ötsch beschreibt wie die Ökonomik sich von der Moralwissenschaft unter Adam Smith zu einer Wissenschaft mit einem biologisch determinierten Menschenbild unter Malthus und Ricardo entwickelt. In diesem Prozess kommen naturwissenschaftliche Metaphern (Uhr-System, Waage-Gleichgewicht, Computer-Information) immer mehr zum Tragen. Anhand der Geschichte wird die Entwicklung der modernen Neoklassik gezeigt. Dann wird die marktliberale Interpretation der Neoklassik kritisiert. Zum Schluss wird noch auf das fehlende Narrativ der Ökonomik zur Finanzkrise eingegangen und auf den nicht stattgefundenen Bruch mit der Marktradikalität der Eliten. 2013 Level: mittel Ökonomik als Sozialphysik Walter Ötsch Netzwerk Plurale Ökonomik Die Rolle des Optimierungskonzepts in den Standardlehrwerken der Mikroökonomik Torsten Heinrich Quelle van Treeck Till and Janina Urban Wirtschaft neu denken Blinde Flecken in der Lehrbuchökonomie iRights Media 2016 Das Buch kann hier bestellt werden http irights media de publikationen wirtschaft neu denken Rezensierte Bücher Pindyck R S Rubinfeld D … 2016 Level: leicht Die Rolle des Optimierungskonzepts in den Standardlehrwerken der Mikroökonomik Torsten Heinrich Wirtschaft neu denken: Blinde Flecken in der Lehrbuchökonomie Wertfreiheit in der Theoriearbeit?

The Sufficiency Approach and the Limits of Economic Growth Fernanda Nacif Exploring Economics Have you ever wondered why it is so difficult to follow through on new year’s resolutions, such as to exercise more or to start saving more money towards retirement? The agent that most traditional economic models are based on would not struggle to keep up these resolutions. These agents are referred to as homo economicus. 2018 Level: leicht Homo Economicus: Why are new year’s resolutions so difficult to maintain and economic models so bad at predicting our behaviour?
