Rethinking Economics Zurich

Our Goal

We want to change economics education at the University of Zurich:

  • To make sure that the curricula is based on the three P’s of Pluralism (Pluralism of Theories, Methods and Interdisciplinary Pluralism)
  • To make room for critical discussions about underlying assumptions and normative principles
  • To change the curricula so that its content is orientated towards the economy as it exists in the real world

To reach these goals, we organise educational and social events, as well as the lecture “Pluralism in Economics” (3 ECTS) for bachelor students (more or less) every fall semester. In addition, we campaign with our allies from Rethinking Economics Switzerland for curriculum reform all across Switzerland.
