| | Economics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Political economy explicitly brings political considerations into economic analysis and is therefore openly normative, although this can be said of many economic recommendations as well, despite claims to being positive. | | | This interpretation gave economics a narrow focus that was rejected by many as placing wealth in the forefront and man in the background; John Ruskin referred to political economy as a "Bastard science, the science of getting riches." | | | And socialists view it as a failure of economics to respect society. |
