One of the most important issues that Economics is a State of Mind raises is what this field of knowledge actually deals with. It is widely considered to be a theory of resource use in conditions of deficit. However, the author asks the question: what happens if we reverse this definition and consider it as the art of distributing excess? This change leads him to a vision of economics different from that found in most textbooks. The author thoroughly analyzes the state of contemporary economic debate, with particular emphasis on the language used in it. He shows the influence of words on our image of the economy, as well as on the decisions made by politicians. This is a book not only about economics, but also about sociology, philosophy and linguistics.
