Economics

Evolving different thoughts of Economics. “Economic thought has evolved through centuries, shaping the way we understand wealth, markets, and human behavior. The journey begins with Adam Smith’s classical economics, where the ‘invisible hand’ and the pursuit of self-interest lay the foundation for market dynamics. Later, Alfred Marshall’s neo-classical economics refined these ideas, introducing concepts like marginal utility and supply-demand equilibrium. Finally, Lionel Robbins’ modern approach redefined economics as the science of scarcity and choice, focusing on the allocation of limited resources to meet endless wants. Together, these perspectives offer a comprehensive view of economic theory’s evolution.”
