Economic Reasoning in Context

Signals a deliberate move away from universal, context-free abstraction. It is a refusal to treat economic reasoning as a closed system of models and metrics. Instead, it places economic thinking within real-world settings shaped by history, institutions, and everyday life.

This approach recognises that economic choices are never neutral. Decisions about efficiency, growth, and development have social consequences, and ignoring context can lead to exclusion or loss. Economic reasoning, therefore, is not only technical; it also involves judgment and responsibility, with attention to human dignity and long-term outcomes.
