The course is an introduction to the history of economic thought. While historical events have influenced the development of economic theory, so has economic theory had significant impacts on historical outcomes. Therefore, there will be an emphasis on the interdependence of economic theories with ideas arising from socio-political events and philosophies. The course will also prepare students for further study of economic theory by revealing the roots of concepts taught in economics. In addition, it will provide students with an understanding of both the current use and misuse of concepts of economics and political economy, as well as the important current economic debates.
