MAJOR MISUNDERSTANDINGS IN ECONOMIC CRISES, IN THE LIGHT OF KNOWLEDGE SOCIETY

Present study reviews certain main pro-active approaches and connections. Searching for root concepts, a number of current views on causes of today’s crisis are selected. They are viewed through the criterion of their effects in practice, in a heterodox approach which is a critique of standard economic routine. Connections are made with the intellectual core of the knowledge society, in the context of the required interdisciplinary character of the scientific act. Requests for the economic analysis result: the economists should judge by a broader horizon. Practical conclusions also ensue, being generally applicable to the crisis management at macroeconomic and microeconomic level.
