Economics' New Standard Model
An online seminar during the winter months of 2014-2015 and, more remotely, the beginning of a massive cultural change. The title contains the word new as does Lonergan’s typescript title of 1942, “For a New Political Economy.” The seminar has a modest objective, communicated feebly but easily by noting a gap, an existential gap, that appears in economics course descriptions of present universities and their failure to treat local economies. Appreciating both the gap and the possible exception of seriously treating local economies is the seeding of the New Standard Model in economics.
