Mieke Meurs: On teaching heterodox and feminist economics
In today’s episode we challenge mainstream economics from some heterodox perspectives, particularly feminist economics. Professor Mieke particularly critiques neoclassical price theory, the interplay between policy-making and the public, and how we should teach these aspects.
We go on to talk about the issue of predicting of cost in extreme cases, such as climate change, as well as whether GDP captures welfare. We end the inspiring talk on issues related to family choice and cultural preferences.
