It is now ten years since the Global Financial Crisis (GFC). What, if anything, has economics learnt from the experience? Have there been any changes made in the models and assumptions about markets? Any changes to the role economics has in economic policy? Has anything new and challenging been made to the curriculum of an economics degree? Do we now have economists who have learnt from experience?
