Economics is the social science that studies the way in which societies are organized to produce the goods and services that sustain and enhance the life processes of the community.

Since all social policy issues in modern societies have an economic dimension, the study of economics offers the student an opportunity to investigate the most important and exciting problems of political economy facing the world today.
