Robert W. Wright

Opis

Rejecting the orthodox economic model as an inappropriate representation of social reality, Robert Wright proposes an alternative adapted from Foucault's cultural theories. This new perspective leads him to conclude that, within the discipline of Canadian economics, theory should become gestalt rather than pure, methodology should become normative rather than positive, and policy should be directed towards the achievement of economic nationalism rather than continentalism.
