I denne episode af Rig på viden diskuterer stifter af Econroots og professor Mieke Meurs samspillet mellem politik og pristeori.Show notes:In today’s episode we challenge mainstream economics from some heterodox perspectives, particularly feminist economics. Professor Mieke Meurs particularly critiques neoclassical price theory, the interplay between policy-making and the public, and how we should teach these aspects. We go on to talk about the issue of predicting of cost in extreme cases, such as climate change, as well as whether GDP captures welfare.
