Chapter 1 in Anti-Blanchard Macroeconomics, 2022, pp 1-6 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: In the introduction, we argue that Anti-Blanchard Macroeconomics represents a useful tool for trying to overcome the current contradiction between the opportunity to offer students a preliminary mainstream education and the need to nurture rather than crush their critical spirit. On the basis of a comparative approach to macroeconomics, the volume helps students to understand that, just like and perhaps even more than any other area of scientific knowledge, economics is not a discipline that changes in a smooth, linear manner but, on the contrary, represents a field of research that develops through intense theoretical debates, continual empirical testing and resultant disputes about economic policy.
