I outline Minsky (downloadable from https://sourceforge.net/projects/minsky/), the system dynamics platform I designed for economics to enable banks, debt and money to be easily incorporated into dynamic models of the economy, explain why mainstream economists thought that you don’t have to include banks, debt and money in macroeconomic models and why they are profoundly wrong, discuss the attempt by some Neoclassical economists to get back to that Olde Religion now that the global economy is reviving somewhat ten years after the Global Financial Crisis, and conclude by showing that macroeconomics can be derived directly from macroeconomic definitions.
