When we think of Economics, it's financial markets, and supply & demand that come to top of mind. Somewhere through the evolutionary process of this social science, the misconception that economics was somehow strictly capitalism became the norm. Through key revolutionary economists however, the dialogue in this field is now shifting away from constant growth, to a more empathetic and equitable way of thinking. With new economic research on social and health issues like feminism, or racial inequality, we now see that the traditional view of what the "economy" really is, is being challenged - a definition in which the subject matter may reside in Wall Street, but actually resonate to so many other facets of society and life. In this podcast episode with Scott Chua, a masters student studying quantitative economics, he mentions the value of studying economics, debunks the old assumptions that are now being overturned, and shows us that economics is really for everyone - not just the wealth managers or growth players.
