Yeah, i would be so disapointed if i just went and bought Capital😂. I honestly dont Think this guy has read either Capital or the wealth of nations. He recommends the holy boble of capitalisim and communisim. Just Think about it had Lenin(the communist Who brought communisim to russia during the revolution) just not read the communist manifesto by Carl Marx, russia might have been a economicly strong and free liberal nation today. This guy is from Ukraine that is under attack by communist russia right now. And he is sitting here 2 years earlier and recomending a book by the man Who gave Lenin good ideas. I hope his viewes has changed

The Arthashastra, written by the ancient Indian philosopher and statesman Kautilya (also known as Chanakya), is considered one of the most important works in the field of economics and political science. Here are some reasons why it is often regarded as the best book for economic study: Comprehensive: The Arthashastra covers a wide range of topics, including economics, politics, warfare, diplomacy, and governance. As such, it provides a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between these different aspects of society and how they affect economic development. Historical Significance: The Arthashastra was written more than two thousand years ago, making it one of the oldest surviving works on economics. Its ideas and concepts have influenced economic thought not only in India but also in other parts of the world, making it a historically significant text. Practical Approach: The Arthashastra is a highly practical work that provides detailed instructions on various aspects of economic policy, such as taxation, trade, and regulation. It is not just a theoretical treatise, but a guidebook for how to govern and develop an economy. Emphasis on Ethics: The Arthashastra recognizes the importance of ethical considerations in economic policy-making. It stresses the need for rulers to act with integrity and fairness in their dealings with their subjects and to avoid exploiting them for personal gain. Relevance Today: Many of the ideas and concepts presented in the Arthashastra are still relevant today, especially in the context of developing economies. Its emphasis on the importance of infrastructure development, taxation policies, and trade regulations continue to influence economic policy-makers around the world. Overall, the Arthashastra provides a unique perspective on economics and governance that is both practical and ethical, making it an important work for anyone interested in studying economics.

terms are confusing and ,useful only to them who seek to not learn and understand but showcase others that they could but chose not to- flaunting. To understand terms and to remember them most importantly, only realise their theory and implication in practise and notice the ripple effect of a term when in place. For example, you don't need to learn everything about utility and use value, just understand what they mean- utility of a commodity in terms of its use.

UNIONS...proper powerful unions....not doing what unions today are doing which is protecting some silly lazy person from getting sacked or trying to get a wage rise at critical business times... proper unions we should be grateful for , they have limited the exploitation of the captialists...but more than that , you can see how govt has tried to quash powerful unions, and they need to be reintroduced, and given big policies to which they can manipulate the capitalists to pay up....and bring forth equality... eg.. bill gates microsoft was a wonderful idea, but there are workers putting in 50 hours a week earning just above minimum wage , whilst the likes of bill gates earns about 30 billion a year..and share holders who do jack shit .earn their dividends...UNIONS CAN CHANGE THAT game... THE PEOPLE HAVE THE POWER , IF they could just unite and quash the exploiting captialists..until the day came that the likes of bill gates could earn 20 million a year, and the rest gets split amongst the workers. no longer exploiting their human labour...and this money could also be distributed to others who dont even work for microsoft..i havent done a full plan...but the plan in place is SHIT.

@@paxtonghandi1380 Neoliberalism is a vapid philosophical concept that, in political terms, often means "some economic/political program that I don´t like". Now if you are talking about a market economy, it literally produces ZERO economic crises. All the economic crises that have ever ocurred, without exception, have been caused by government interference in free economic activity. This includes the Great Depression, bank panics in the 19th century and every single boom and bust cycle that has ever happened. The problem is that most people don´t know enough about economics and economic history to understand this so they buy into all the nonsense devised to further a statist agenda, in which Keynesian philosophy plays no small part.

Smith describes the "process of the invisible hand regulating the market" and "small state, big market"? Mustn't have read it too closely. Smith uses "invisible hand" in only one context in the Wealth of Nations, that's in describing "home bias", not the "market". In Smith's other work, it's clear he literally means the hand of his God. On "small state, big market" Smith describes the "division of labour" leading to humans "becom[ing] as stupid and ignorant as it is possible for a human creature to become... unless government takes some pains to prevent it." Doesn't sound to "small government" to me. Maybe give it another read

I wish I could just read a summarized version of Adam Smith. I don't need the superfluous writing style. Just give me the meat.

Economics professor Thomas Sowell debunked Thomas Picketty's book on the basis of it using wrong/fake data to build its arguments.

Thomas Sowell is not an economics professor. He left academia in the 70s. His work since then is focused on politics and public policy from a right-wing libertarian perspective. And Piketty’s data wasn’t fake; he used statistical methods to make estimates for which data isn’t available.
