In this spirited and provocative book, Edward Leamer turns an examination of the Heckscher--Ohlin framework for global competition into an opportunity to consider the craft of economics: what economists do, what they should do, and what they shouldn't do. Claiming "a lifetime relationship with Heckscher--Ohlin," Leamer argues that Bertil Ohlin's original idea offered something useful though vague and not necessarily valid; the economists who later translated his ideas into mathematical theorems offered something precise and valid but not necessarily useful. He argues further that the best economists keep formal and informal thinking in balance. An Ohlinesque mostly prose style can let in faulty thinking and fuzzy communication; a mostly math style allows misplaced emphasis and opaque communication. Leamer writes that today's model- and math-driven economics needs more prose and less math. Leamer shows that the Heckscher--Ohlin framework is still useful, and that there is still much work to be done with it. But he issues a caveat about economists: "What we do is not science, it's fiction and journalism." Economic theory, he writes, is fiction (stories, loosely connected to the facts); data analysis is journalism (facts, loosely connected to the stories). Rather than titling the two sections of his book Theory and Evidence, he calls them Economic Fiction and Econometric Journalism, explaining, "If you find that startling, that's good. I am trying to keep you awake."

Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) modelling is a relatively new field in economics, however, it is rapidly becoming one of the most useful tools for policy evaluation. This book applies CGE modelling to some of the most urgent international economic policy problems, including the Kyoto Protocol, pension reform, and income taxation, and also analyses the methodological issues that arise.

Considering the econometric analysis of both stationary and non-stationary processes, which may be linked by equilibrium relationships, this text provides a wide-ranging account of the main tools, techniques, models, concepts, and distributions involved in the modelling of integrated processes.

This book offers an introduction to game theory, for academics and undergraduates interested in economic theory, but with no prior knowledge of game theory. It is written in non-technical language and concepts are developed as the book progresses. Game theory is currently a very popular tool of analysis, and this book looks at reasons why this is so. This is the first title to be published in the Clarendon Lectures in Economics series (see overleaf).The Clarendon Lectures in EconomicsThese lectures were established in 1987. They consist of coherent sets of three to four lectures given by disti
