This re-incorporation of economics into political economy is one
(small, but not insignificant) element in a larger project: to

economics-enriched political economy is, above all, empowering:
working people in general can calculate, build models, think
theoretically, and contribute to a human-worthy future, rather
than leaving all this to their "betters."
