Economy Studies

today’s societies are facing unprecedented challenges: climate change, inequality, financial instability and as recently has become abundantly clear: pandemics. economists have a crucial role in addressing these challenges. but their education has not kept pace. economy studies provides a framework and ten basic building blocks for the training of a modern-day economist. drawing on a decade of ideas from the rethinking economics student movement, this book contains a wealth of teaching material. it shows how to teach truly pluralist modules, combining various theories pragmatically without opening the floodgates for ‘anything goes’. the authors provide a practical road map for effectively connecting core academic material to real world events and the great questions of our time, helping professors to effectively engage students and prepare them for the world of today.
