Teaching Heterodox and Pluralist Economics – Some Useful Books

Stefan Kesting

Forum for Social Economics, 2023, vol. 52, issue 3, 312-321

Abstract: This review highlights the strengths and weaknesses of three recently published useful resources for teaching economics from a pluralist and/or heterodox perspective. The introduction provides an overview of other helpful (text-)books for this purpose. Based on a historical approach, Geoffrey Schneider’s book describes and differentiates the characteristics of a broad range of economic ideas and systems. The core chapters on Smith, Marx, Veblen, and Keynes (+ Hayek) provide a brilliant concise, very well written and easily accessible overview of the plurality of major economic ideas in their historical evolution. Moreover, this explanation is shown as intricately entwined with the epochal eventful history of economic systems.
