What is economic process?
Two-flow economic process explains how economies work. It accounts accurately for the health of any economy. It adverts to the fact that there are five monetary functions. In basic and surplus production there are the basic and surplus supply and demand functions, respectively, and a remainder class of redistributive transactions that include the stock market, and other second-hand trade, and that also facilitate international trade.
Why does economic process
need to be understood?
Understanding economic process breaks the destructive cycle of contemporary economic teaching and the dysfunctional behaviour imposed on free market practice. Both of these practices contribute to ongoing geopolitical tensions among global economies. Both take for granted the legitimacy of current economic models, metrics and strategies that overlook what an economy is and how it works. Both fail to account accurately for the health of any economy, either locally or globally. Both inevitably exacerbate ongoing crises of surging financial stresses, fragmentation of trade, endemic international debt, and poverty.
How will understanding economic process
benefit the world?
Understanding of economic process will safeguard an economy that is inclusive and sustainable. Understanding of economic process will safeguard an economy whose sole purpose is to serve people and make everyone’s life livable. Future economists will be stewards of local and global economies. Future politicians will be facilitators of wise economic counsel, free of the burden of assuming direct responsibility for securing and maintaining economic well-being. In this way, the guidance of local and global economists will contribute to the dissolution of counter-intuitive divisiveness and undermine the opportunity for peculation that routinely erodes trust in our political institutions.
