Visionary Realism of German Economics: From the Thirty Years' War to the Cold War

The Visionary Realism of German Economics forms a collection of Erik S. Reinert’s essays bringing the more realistic German economic tradition into focus as an alternative to Anglo-Saxon neoclassical mainstream economics. Together the essays form a holistic theory explaining why economic development―by its very nature―is a very uneven process. Herein lie the important policy implications of the volume.
