Edited by Edward Fullbrook, this pdf based newsletter (and movement?) has declared it its mission to question and improve what in their opinion is "clockwork economics", namely a "sick" discipline suffering from the hegemony of neoclassical theory, an academic field where "science has begun to follow ideology".
The post autists are thus determined in "reopening economics for free scientific inquiry, making it a pursuit where empiricism outranks a priorism and where critical thinking rules instead of ideology".
Whether or not the post autistic economics bears any relevance remains for the potential reader to decide, however as the website points out with quotes from various distinguished economists, the discipline is undeniably very far from being perfected.
Nonetheless, perhaps it is exactly this imperfection and ensuing potential for improvement that makes economic science so fashinating? ."
