    A Note of Philosophical Thought on Poverty Reduction through Industrialization

    Get PDF
    This paper aims to describe the role of industrialization in poverty reduction in any country, especially developing countries, which are mainly based on agriculture. One of the essential purposes of economics is reducing poverty around the world, and our answer regarding the most effective way to do so is industrialization, which includes related services. Only industrialization offers a shortcut to poverty reduction. A problem left to address is how to achieve industrialization. As Reinert (2007) pointed out, the primary sector, including agriculture, has a structural problem of decreasing returns to scale, while the other industrial sectors have the characteristics of increasing returns to scale, which is the advantage of industrialization. The main factors of industrialization include labour mobility, the protection of infant industry, urbanization, the formation of industrial clusters and the prevention of environmental destruction

    Notes on the Historical Approach as a Methodology of Macroeconomics: A Critique to Contemporary Macroeconomics

    This paper proposes a path for macroeconomic analysis as an alternative to orthodox analysis because the latter cannot successfully describe the reality of an economic society with the following essential features: 1) the structure of the macroeconomy is basically a system open to the outside; 2) variables within the system are frequently affected by factors outside the system; 3) variables are constantly being influenced by newly emerging factors; 4) the subject of analysis is an aggregate rather than individuals; 5) people usually behave by considering the situation and changing their initial plans; 6) interdependency and feedback form the basic structure; and 7) people do not always behave rationally, and they tend to have some bias in their cognition. If economic society presents all these inevitable features, historical analysis as an evolutionary perspective might be an alternative method for economists
