Abstract:
Anti-economics is described as the opposition to the main stream of economic thought that has existed from the Eighteenth-century to the present day.

William Coleman examines how anti-economics developed from the Enlightenment to the present day and analyzes its various guises. Right anti-economics, Left anti-economics, Nationalist and Historicist anti-economics and Irrationalist, Moralist, Aesthetic and Environmental anti-economics
