Content Data

This page contains data entry 52941 from the Axioma AXP content repository. The structured data below represents the complete record for this entry.

The study by Jelveh, Kogut, and Naidu from NYU and Columbia demonstrates that economics is significantly influenced by political ideology. Here are the key points:

1. Ideological Influence on Research: Economists’ political leanings shape their research topics and language, challenging the notion of economics as an objective science. 2. Impact on Policy: These biases can affect public policy decisions, as ideological perspectives influence critical economic findings.

3. Methodological and Normative Judgments: Economics involves decisions influenced by political beliefs, making it inherently political.

Acknowledging and accounting for these biases is crucial for developing balanced and equitable economic policies. The belief in neutrality in economics is akin to color-blind policymaking, ignoring the disparate impacts and human consequences of economic theories and practices. With over 70% of U.S. economists being white and 70% being men, the lack of diversity means missing perspectives that are as political as those included.
