JM Keynes, being the son of a Professor of logic & scientific methodology, would have recognised Carveth Read's 'Fallacy of Exactness' 👇& how that applies to macroeconomics proper (hence the oft repeated apocryphal Keynes quote). ImageImageImage
While the necessary simulations were necessary for Frisch's envisioned dynamic analysis (proto-#SystemDynamics)👇 it was impractical, because his 'computers' (a roomful of peeps doing sums with pen & paper) were not very efficient.

The rest is history. Image

why can’t elite journals that define #EBM & #datadriven #healthcare

Why focus on LABELS certain physicians don’t like to hear?

This thread is to congratulate Prof. Steve Keen for having his co-authored paper accepted by the Journal of Ecological Economics, and to thank him for the attached preprint. The correct role of energy in production has been absent from conventional economic theory for centuries.
Energy is a hard concept. This might explain its absence of economic models. And confirms Keen's courage to dare tackle the problem.

His new contribution gains even more relevance since we have entered the Anthropocene full steam ahead, further into overshoot.
As @GeorgeMonbiot put it "The oligarchic control of wealth, politics, media and public discourse explains the comprehensive institutional failure now pushing us towards disaster." There are plenty of reasons to add economics to this list.
