If I wanted to educate myself in economics as pluralistically as possible, where should I start?
Hi all! Not sure if this question is allowed, but also unsure of where else to go. TLDR, I hated math growing up and am now incredibly fascinated by the study of economics as a whole. I’m generally good at guiding myself through a self-made syllabus of sorts, but it seems daunting to sort through and decide what to teach myself about first, especially in our current era of misinformation. I am aware that no amount of research or reading can replace a formal education, nor do I desire to necessarily work in economics, but I do want to gather as much of a whole-rounded view of the topic as I can. So:
Where do I start? What starting topics, areas of study, books, studies, papers, etc will best inform me on the study of economics? What are the key schools of thought that are the backbone of economics? I obviously have ideas of what these answers would be, but want to know if that’s true in practice.
