The Nature of Economics
Overview
This chapter introduces economics as a science. Economics is defined, and its subareas,
macroeconomics and microeconomics, are introduced. The chapter also discusses the
three fundamental questions faced by every nation of what to produce, how to produce,
and for whom to produce. The chapter then presents the two types of economic systems,
command and control and the price system, that are used to answer the three fundamental
questions. Economic rationality and self-interest are discussed along with their
implications for decision making and economic model building. The concept of
behavioral economics is introduced. Economics as a science is closely associated with the
development of models. To aid understanding, a significant section on the methodology
of economics discusses model construction, the role of assumptions, and determining the
usefulness of a model. Finally, the difference between positive and normative economics
is presented. There is a discussion of why it is important to separate these two areas of
analysis clearly.
