what is EconConcept?

revitalising and contextualising economics.

EconConcept is an initiative to explore just how applicable economics is - because it is truly more than just a textbook subject. The aim with this website is to instill the notion that economics is everywhere. With a variety of articles that analyse current events from an economic standpoint, EconConcept not only reinforces the idea that economics is highly versatile, but also draws connections from the theory generally taught in the subject that is economics, to the reality of this vast branch of knowledge.

Exploring EconConcept

how articles are grouped: themes

The structure of this website, while similar to common economics syllabi, also has notable differences. The articles have been split up into six different themes. I'd recommend beginning with microeconomics and macroeconomics as they present the applications quite clearly, then delving into more complicated economics traditions, such as the developmentalist and international. For those who have become fairly comfortable with this site, I'd suggest exploring the unique unexpected economics page as well as the advanced reading section.

happy reading!
