Teaching economy studies in non-economics programs through the lens of justice
by Jay Hamilton
International Journal of Pluralism and Economics Education (IJPEE), Vol. 14, No. 2, 2023

Abstract: This paper discusses the application of the economy studies approach to teaching economics courses in non-economic/interdisciplinary programs through the use of justice as a central theme. Focusing the course on a value such as justice frees the course to work in partnership with other disciplines. Advantages include the ability to find allies in other disciplines, building student skills such as communications with economists, critical reasoning, and the ability to critically evaluate economic information. A justice-grounded introduction to the economy for interdisciplinary programs can also improve the reputation of economics within our academic institutions.
