Economics need to change - now more than ever! With Exploring Economics, we strengthen alternative economic approaches and counter mainstream economics with a critical and pluralistic vision of economic education. We also provide background analyses on current economic debates to strengthen a critical economic discourse.

This book is a collection of articles on topics and individuals within the history of heterodox economic thought, approached from a heterodox perspective. The principal topics are the nature and scope of economics as an intellectual venture; realistic theories of the economic role of government, including the economy as a system of power and its legal bases; and economics as "psychic balm," professionalized discourse, and social control. Among the individuals whose work is singled out are Edward Bellamy, Thorstein Veblen, Edwin E. Witte, Robert Lee Hale, John Kenneth Galbraith, Thurman Arnold, Gardiner C. Means, and Joan Robinson.
