Making sense of economists and their world in a persuasive and entertaining style, Arjo Klamer, the author of a number of influential books including Conversation with Economists and The Consequences of Economic Rhetoric, shows that economics is as much about how people interact as it is about the models, the mathematics, the econometrics, the theories and the ideas that come from the enormous aggregate of economics literature. Knowing and understanding economics requires both bookwork and mingling with other economists. Viewing the subject as a collection of conversations, Klamer examines fundamental disagreements over the nature and purpose of the discipline, addressing how it is that a discipline that so permeates daily life is at once ‘soft’ and scientific, powerful and ignored, noble and disdained and in a reader-friendly style – without eschewing academic methodology demonstrates economics to be a living, breathing discipline rooted in the real world.Whether you are a student, academician, journalist, practising economist or interested outsider, Speaking of Economics will get you interested in a conversation about economics.

The field of economics proves to be a matter of metaphor and storytelling - its mathematics is metaphoric and its policy-making is narrative. Economists have begun to realize this and to rethink how they speak. This volume is the result of a conference held at Wellesley College, involving both theoretical and applied economists, that explored the consequences of the rhetoric and the conversation of the field of economics.

Realising the Value of Culture brings together international scholars to explore how values shape economies, organisations, and societies. It provides conceptual framing and tools for those seeking to align their practices with economic, cultural, and societal values.The chapters in this collection bridge cultural economics, sociology, cultural studies, and urban studies to present an alternative to standard economic perspectives centred on price, profit, and efficiency. Foregrounding qualities – the quality of work, environment, and community – this book offers new methods to evaluate and realise cultural and social values. Its theoretical and methodological contributions include the conceptualisation of value realisation, the commons as shared practices, and the evaluation of impact through qualitative dimensions. Drawing on examples from the arts, crafts, cultural heritage, education, management, and urban development, it demonstrates how the value-based approach can inform circular, creative, and sharing economies.Aimed at undergraduates, postgraduates, scholars, and practitioners – such as cultural managers, creatives, urban planners, policy-makers, and organisational leaders – this book offers an insightful framework for understanding the dynamic interrelations between individuals, institutions, and the communities they serve. The book functions as both a practical manual and an inspiration for continued research and application.
