Necesitamos más que nunca una economía crítica. Con Exploring Economics, reforzamos los enfoques económicos alternativos y contrarrestamos la economía dominante con una comprensión crítica y pluralista de la educación económica. También ofrecemos análisis de fondo sobre los debates económicos actuales para fortalecer un discurso económico crítico.

The lectures were given by Steve Keen at the Exploring Economics Summer Academy 2017 in the workshop on Post-Keynesian Economics.
The first lectures start with the role of money in a monetary economy and explain the macroeconomic significance of admitting the reality that banks create money. The lectures continue with Minsky's Financial Instability Hypothesis and show how to model it. Lecture 3 explains that "the Physiocrats were the only school of thought to be consistent with the Laws of Thermodynamics in their model of production”, and derives a production function in which energy plays an essential role. The last lecture shows "that the Labour Theory of Value is incompatible with the Laws of Thermodynamics and is therefore fundamentally false. This Theory is also incompatible with Marx's dialectical philosophy, which is consistent with the Laws of Thermodynamics and with the philosophy of organicism that Winslow argued underlay Keynes's approach to economics”. Steve Keen shows that this philosophy can provide a coherent and structured approach to building a realistic new political economy.
