Description - Post-Modernism, Economics and Knowledge by Jack Amariglio
Only in the past twenty years have debates surrounding modernism and postmodernism emerged within the discipline of economics. This new way of thinking rejects claims that science and mathematics provide the only models for the structure of economic knowledge. This highly important volume brings together the essays of top theorists to debate issues in the following areas: Modernism and postmodernism Reading, symbols, changing subjects and discerning bodies in economic discourse Gendered subjectivities in Neoclassical economics Feminist/postmodern econoics Postmodernism, economic rationality and the problem of 'representation' Is there a (postmodern) alternative in Economics? From markets to gifts. Postmodernism, Economics and Knowledge does not require the reader to have an economics background; it is an accessible text providing a broad view of each topic, followed by a critique and comment to end each section. It will serve as an invaluable reference tool for all studying postmodernism and the history of economic thought.
