CZ:Economics Workgroup

Workgroups are no longer used for group communications, but they still are used to group articles into fields of interest. Each article is assigned to 1-3 Workgroups via the article's Metadata.

WELCOME TO THE ECONOMICS WORKGROUP

Contributions - drafting of new articles, comments on existing articles and editing of existing articles - from welcome from authors who are economics students and professionals.

Contributions from students and professionals of other disciplines concerning the clarity of existing articles are also very welcome. The main pages, addendum subpages and timeline subpages (but not the tutorials subpages) of the economics articles are intended to be readily accessible to educated non-economists (with the help of the glossaries on the related articles sub-pages where necessary). Comments drawing attention to passages that do not meet that requirement are particularly welcome. Under the rules of Citizendium all are free to edit existing articles, but experience has shown that misunderstandings tend to arise if alterations are made without first inviting discussion on the article's talk page - as a result, as for example of lack of awareness of the specialised interpretations that economists apply to some everday terms.

Core articles

The 2007-8 part of this workgroup page contained a list of proposed "core articles", most of which have since been written (for a list, see the article on economics). Still outstanding are the following:

• Budget deficit
• Business economics
• Economic history
• Economics of the firm
• Economic models
• Endogenous growth
• General equilibrium
• Precautionary principle
• Rational expectations
• Sustainability
