Extract
This book is an attempt to express the arguments of a movement of economics students around the world; we would therefore first like to thank members of that student movement and to recognise all the hard work done by students around the world in campaigning for better economics education. We have attempted here to articulate their worries and frustrations about the current state of modern economics; the hard part was building the movement that allowed that message to be expressed in the first place.
We would also like to thank some people in particular for input into this process. Special thanks goes to Louis James for invaluable help in some of the research for this project and to Cleo Chevalier for helping us to present that research lucidly. The copy-editing of Gail Matthews is to be credited for what we hope is a coherent piece of writing; any problems that remain are our own fault entirely. We would also like to thank Will Horwitz, Gemma Wearing, Emma Hamilton, Yuan Yang, Rafe Martyn, Ben Glover, Andrew McGettigan, Victoria Chick, Ha-Joon Chang, Daniel Chandler, Jonathan Aldred, Claire Jones, Cameron Murray and Philip Pilkington for providing such detailed and constructive feedback. That long list is still too short to fully summarise everyone who has had input into this book and we thank everyone who has contributed to the process. Thanks also goes to Diane Coyle, Martin Wolf, Diane Elson, Pat Devine, Anne Booth and all the others who so kindly agreed to be interviewed (some will remain anonymous), and to Aashish Velkar for responding to our call for a historian’s opinion in Chapter 4. We would also like to thank all the staff at Rethinking Economics for their continued fantastic work and Diana García López, Kiryl Zach, Olivia Wills, Severin Reissl, Isaac Stovell and Eleanor Baggaley Simpson for all their help with research for this book. Andy Haldane deserves huge thanks for agreeing to write the foreword for this book and for his support of the student movement more broadly. He is the kind of economist we would be proud to be.
