The Economic Process: An Instantaneous Non-Newtonian Picture

The Economic Process transforms economic theory from a linear, sequential discipline into a structure in which events happen simultaneously and are strictly interrelated. Author Carmine Gorga describes the process of production of real goods and services, the automatic distribution of ownership rights over these goods and services, and the creation of money as legal representation of those rights, through financial instruments. Making minimal use of mathematics and an in-depth use of ancient tools of logic and epistemology, each module of the economic system is analyzed by itself and is then seen in relation to all the other elements of the economic process. Gorga undercuts the ideological polarization that exists today between the right and the left to provide only one political and sociological view of the economic problem: the problem of poverty.

Review :
Carmine Gorga does put his finger on an economic reality often neglected by economists. The writing style of the book is similar to the writing styles of Veblen, Schumpeter, Keynes, and von Hayek. This means that the reader is going to have to think carefully about the fundamental nature of capitalism as a complex system evolving through time...G's framework of analysis is a reinterpretation of Keyne's syllogistic...with the actual results...I would give the book a 5 star rating. Carmine Gorga, of the Gloucester Community Development, who studied with Nobel laureates in his discipline, is a practitioner of creative economics. . . . he has the answers to universal poverty and the anxieties of the affluent. The blueprint for theelimination of poverty among the masses of the planned. A manual for a healthy mind, in a healthy body, in a healthy society.
