"Economics today resembles Catholic theology in medieval Europe: a rigid doctrine guarded by a modern priesthood who claim to possess the sole truth. Dissenters are shunned. ... Neoclassical economics has become the Aeroflot of ideas." Much truth in this.

To be clear, I liked those sentences, but not the overall argument of the piece. My grievance against economics is its neglect in recent times of ec. history (barely represented in major departments these days). But the state of history departments and of the history profession is far worse.
