איך כלכלנים חושבים על אנשים? האם הם נסמכים על עובדות או מונעים מאידיאולוגיה? האם הם מושפעים מאופנות או נאמנים לעקרונות מדעיים? וכיצד האופן בו הם חושבים ומבינים בני אדם משפיע על ההמלצות למדיניות? או במילים אחרות: על החיים שלנו? הפודקאסט הזה מספר את סיפור חייו של המין הכלכלי, הרעיון המהפכני שאיפשר לתאר את האדם כיצור כלכלי. נשמע כיצד לאורך ההיסטוריה הסתכלו כלכלנים על האדם באופנים שונים, וכיצד אופנים אלה הושפעו ממגמות חברתיות, מדעיות, פוליטיות וכלכליות. אבל הסיפור המענין במיוחד הוא כיצד האופן בו ...

Exploring various topics of history and government with a feeble attempt at humor. Don't worry I lack the storytelling ability of a Dan Carlin, the commitment to a fast pace and consistent release schedule of a Mike Duncan.

Why would someone do this?” Right? As if what I'm showing them wasn't real. And what I learned t…
