Foreword: Implementing a new curriculum for economics education after the crisis: a call for action

Sergio Rossi and Louis-Philippe Rochon

International Journal of Pluralism and Economics Education, 2012, vol. 3, issue 3, 225-239

Abstract: The financial and economic crisis that has been devastating a number of countries in the world since its outbreak in 2007-2008 originates in the currently still dominant paradigm in both finance and economics. The contributions selected for this special issue explain collectively that the only possible exit strategy from the ongoing crisis requires a fundamental change in the way and means that both teachers and researchers in economics put to practical use at secondary and university levels. The call for action that stems from the selected papers offers a variety of lines to reforming the economics curriculum on pluralistic grounds.
