Description: "This essay reflects two approaches to a consideration of the principles of economics course. One is a historical survey of much earlier discussions of the course and its problems. The second approach views some important problems with today's course as resulting from the analytical confusion in the discipline itself. Particular attention is paid to the problem of unemployment and inflation. A brief examination of Paul Samuelson's textbook, Economics, is also made."
