Conservative economy and progressive economy

Main Article Content

Luiz Carlos Bresser-Pereira

Abstract

From the assumption that Economics or Political Economy is a science ideologically
conditioned, the author distinguishes a conservative from a progressist or liberal approach.
This distinction is made in three levels: 1) basic theory, more specifically value theory;
2) macroeconomic theory; 3) economic policy.
