Definitions of economics
text:
Various definitions of economics have been proposed, including the description of it as "what economists do." The term 'economics' was previously known as political 'economy'. This term evolved from the French Mercantilist usage of économie politique, which expanded the notion of economy from the ancient Greek concept of household management, to the national level, as the public administration of state affairs. James Stuart (1767) authored the first book in English with 'political economy' in it
