The Economists of Tomorrow: the Case for a Pluralist Subject Benchmark Statement for Economics * *I am indebted to Fred Lee, who has been gently urging the Association for Heterodox Economics (AHE) to present its case since it was founded; Victoria Chick who has been actively involved at every stage of preparing it, Andy Denis for his editorial support and the many AHE members whose views, we hope, played some part in shaping it. The mistakes are all my own. The opinions expressed here do not purport to represent any view except those of the AHE.
