Concept of positive economics.

Concept of positive economics.
According to J.N.Keynes-"positive science may be defined as a body of systematised knowledge concerning what is;a normative or regular science as a body of systematised knowledge relating to
criteria of what ought to be"In line with this A.asimakopuious says-"positive economics can be defined as a body of systematised knowledge concerning what is;while normative economics tries
to develop criteria for what ought to be."
positive economics is concerned with the description of economics events.It formulates the theories to explain them.It tries to follow scientific principles
and devise objectives tests of these theories.the ethical judgements have stronger role in normative economics.Normative economics focuses on personal value judgements.
According to Davide Begg
and other -"positive economics deals with objectives or scientific explanations of the working of the economy."
In brief positive economics studies how the economics actually behaves.The aim of positive economics is to explain how society makes decisions about consumption,production and
exchange of good and service.In positives economics,there is no scope for personal value judgements.We concerned with propositions of the form such as if is this changed,that will
happen.In this regard,positives economics is similar to the natural sciences such as physics or geology.As for example,when the governments imposes tax on goods,the price of those goods will
rise.All agree this.Likewise,favourable weather condition will increase grain output and reduced
the price of grains. This statements is also agreed by all.Many propositions in positives economics have widespread agreement among economics.

Concept of economic deveploment.
Economists have defined economic development in various ways.Hence,it is difficult to give accurate and universally acceptable definition.Prior to1970s,economic development was seen as
the increase in GNP per capital,which is obvious from fallowing definition.
In the option of Arther Lewis"economic development means the increase in per capital production".P.A. Bran,defined economic development as an increase over time in per capital output of material goods.
In the words of Gerald M.Meier-"economic development is the process whereby the real per capital income of a country increases over a long period of time subject poverty does not become more un equal".

land includes everything commonly called natural resources. It included the surface of the earth other resources provided by nature
such as minerals,waterfalls,river,forest and so on.Some resources are non-renewable.It they are used now,they will not be available in future such as oil and coil deposits.

Scarcity and choice.


  • The heart of economics is to solve economic problem.the economic problem arises from two inter-
  • related facts.
  • Men have unlimited wants to accuse goods and service.human wants rater to all the goods and services that individuals desire.these wants very among different people. however,human wants are always greater than the goods services available to satisfy them.
  • The economic resources are are needed to produce goods and services.economic resources refer to the factors or their means of protecting the goods such as land,labour and capital .These resources are available in limited quantity with society.this is the basic economic problem.

Basic economics issues.

Basic economics issues
  • economists are interested in people's living standard i.e. in their material well-being.economists assume that people in have certain wants.They study how particulars societies are organised so at satisfy people wants.
  • Wants are unlimited.most of us want to have goods we do not have now and more of these we do have,such as good building,comfortable cars,beater food,better cloth,etc.The country's ability to satisfy wants depends on.
  • How much is produced,
  • How many people are these to consume what is produced,and
  • How production divided up among those who wish it. The nations total output how is produced.what is produced is called commodities.Goods and services together are called commodities.
Total output divided by the number of people available to consumed it determis averages output per person,which is sometimes called per capital output .It determine the country's averages stander of living.How evenly output is divided is concerded with the distribution of living stander among the people in society.Thus,the three basic question of economics or economics problem .
