The above is my personal opinion. The profound mathematical logic also makes ordinary people afraid of economics and makes economics a tool for a few so-called elite monopolies. Western economics is thus mathematized, referring to the mainstream western economics.
My own point of view is that economics is an abstract subject from the beginning, and these three conditions are precisely the three foundations of western economics:
1, rational man (economic man) hypothesis, but because all economic objects will be paranoid about mathematical analysis due to various situations (environment. Everyone is very clever.
3, good at mathematical operations. It seems that in addition, no matter how different they are from reality. At the same time, rules have absolute authority. Everyone must obey to the end, and every judgment can be carried out smoothly. Even Keynes's macroeconomics only played a tinkering role, that is to say, capitalism is the best system of mankind and an eternal truth. Each participant must be completely rational and aim at maximizing personal interests. This is in line with some personal experience, and it is different from "Bible", custom and religion. What are the economists who lack common sense in China famous for? I don't know if it's right. Now public opinion blindly accuses them of becoming spokesmen of interest groups, but does not explore their theory itself. I'm afraid it's unfair.
It has three basic assumptions.
2, hoping to explain the economic phenomenon of the whole society. If only one of them is taken as an example, it is not applicable in other places (for example, selling pork in Tibet, even if there is a large supply of pork, generally speaking, pork is elastic, why can't it be sold? So in the end, these economists use psychology (such as human selfishness and so on). ), but ignore other experiences, such as the influence of emotional factors. Altruistic (moral) tendencies in nature (from the instinct of any species to reproduce races), graphics, etc. ), combined with historical data, so as to extract a subject suitable for all countries and societies, named economics. In western economics, there is no other way, and the enthusiasm for using various mathematical models is not convincing enough. In fact, this is also the western world's paranoia about numbers, thinking that a thing can be perfect as long as it is combined with mathematical models. The fundamental reason is that if only assumptions or phenomena are put forward, they will be copied:
