Routledge Dictionary
of Economics
Second edition
The most informative dictionary of economics available, the Routledge Dictionary of
Economics avoids the tendency to indulge in long-winded definitions of the major
concepts and provides students with a lucid, comprehensive and accurate guide to the
discipline. Employing the key feature of further reading with many of the terms, the
book uses the subject classification system defined by the Journal of Economic Literature
and The Economic Journal.
There have been sweeping developments in economics in the decade since the
appearance of the first edition of the dictionary and the new version reflects this by
including a wealth of material on additional topics, including:
. economic anthropology
. Blairism
. endogenous growth theory
. French Circuit School
. output floor regulation
. predator–prey models.
The dictionary has piled for the needs of students and teachers of
economics, finance, accountancy and business studies and should prove to be an
invaluable resource.
