In part 1 of this INET interview, Sylvia Nasar talks about her book, Grand Pursuit: The Story of Economic Genius. She suggests that Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol was an early work of economics. Dickens realized that the old view of stagnant, persistent poverty didn't fit the dynamics of the real-world economy. In her view, A Christmas Carol was essentially an economic conversion story. Following through on Dickens' vision, Alfred Marshall would later introduce the idea of productivity growth as a driver of economic progress.
