This makes me recall Amartya Sen’s words to the effect that economists should do more philosophy, and philosophers should do more economics.
I am not a professional economist, but I do take economics as a discipline seriously in my Substack Journal: “The possibility of democratic choice”, where I try to combine political philosophy, economics and social biology. I feel we need a discipline that integrates all three, and one that also incorporates political philosophy from China and elsewhere.

Uni’s should have a “survey of economics” course that gives an overview of they various disciplines related to the economy.
