Klappentext This innovative text ushers in a new way of examining basic economic issues. It teaches economics from a different standpoint, using a division-of-labor theme to eliminate the need for a dichotomy between microeconomics and macroeconomics. This text shows how resource allocation and levels of division of labor are determining factors for demand and supply. It also illustrates the ways that unemployment and business cycles are seen as features of the network of division of labor. While innovative in content, this book keeps the continuity of mainstream economics through a synthesis of existing and emerging branches of economics. It is an exceptional work that will encourage both creative and critical thinking. Zusammenfassung * Systematically covers the emerging literature of new classical economics and inframarginal analysis. * Integrates many fields of economics in an overarching framework. * Revitalizes the core of classical mainstream economics in a modern body of economic formalism. * Synthesizes existing and emerging branches of economics.
