When I was a student in the early 1990s, economics was a human science. After 20 years as an entrepreneur, financier and observer of this field, I am no longer sure economics is still a science, and I am increasingly convinced it is becoming less and less humane.
The modern economy is, to put it in fashionable terms, a traditional economy ‘augmented’, in part, by the digitization and the financialization of human economic activity. This combination will likely cause the next economic accident on a global scale.
