Description

Explore the deep connections between economic theory and colonial history with Postcolonialism Meets Economics. Published by Routledge, this book examines how economics has replaced anthropology as the primary way to organize knowledge and shape policy in domestic and international settings. For too long, the colonial foundations of economic thought have been overlooked, but this volume provides a necessary critique of both orthodox and heterodox economics. By drawing on the expanding field of postcolonial studies, the contributors offer a sophisticated analysis that addresses a significant gap in current academic literature. This work is designed for readers looking to understand how economic worldviews influence global policy and how these theories are rooted in historical colonial structures. It provides a fresh perspective on the social theory of economics, making it a valuable resource for students and scholars interested in the intersection of power, knowledge, and economic systems.
