Paywalled New York Review of Books link

Ostensibly a review of "Money and Government: The Past and Future of Economics" by Robert Skidelsky, Occupy Wallstreet economist David Graeber uses the New York Review of Books as a platform to toss intellectual bombs at the foundations of the academic field of economics.

Graeber exposes orthodox economics as an expression of academic politics and institutional power, rather than a sincere practice of science. He dynamites foundational principles like the quantity theory of money, the efficient market hypothesis, and the concept of economic microfoundations themselves.

Perhaps dismal but not science, economics is an ecclesiastical field of infrapolitical struggle, one in which the clergy of its orthodoxy must be toppled to allow science to return and society thrive.
