Rodrik, Dani, (2015), “Economists vs. Economics”, Project Syndicate, 10 Σεπτεμβρίου

The charges – including hubris, neglect of social goals beyond incomes, excessive attention to formal techniques, and failure to predict major economic developments such as financial crises – have usually come from outsiders, or from a heterodox fringe. But lately it seems that even the field’s leaders are unhappy.
