The economics of our daily lives
Why should we study economics in the 21st century? Do we need a knowledge of economics to just live our lives? Gregory Mankiw, called 'the father of modern economics textbooks', says the origin of economics can tell us the answer. He also adds, quoting the 19th-century economist Alfred Marshall, “Economics is the study of humanity in the ordinary affairs of everyday life.”
We try to make rational choices every day, but we often fall short, having to deal with the less-than-desirable consequences of our actions. What can we learn from economics to help us avoid excessive failures, evade the traps of poverty, and understand the secret to rational choice? We also learn the concept of economics at the global level to give us a better understanding of how the financial world around us works. We can look at the choices we make in our everyday lives through the lens of economics. The more we understand about the principles of economics, the better decisions we will make. Gregory Mankiw’s lecture series is our perfect opportunity to learn all we need to know about the fundamentals of economics.
