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.
Unfortunately, we are running out of money to continue our work.

This first volume of History of Economic Analyses provides short biographical articles written by historians of economics about economists since William Petty until Stiglitz and Krugman.
Comment from our editors:
This volume (and the others) is edited by two historians of economics. Gilbert Faccarelo is well known in the field in France, as is Heinz Kurz in Austria. Volume 1 provides short biographical essays. Though predominantly presenting western economists, it is still a quite handy reference, used a lot by historians of economics and economists. Volume II deals with schools of thought in economics, while Vol. III concentrates on developments in major fields of economics.
