Abstract
In this normative paper, it was looked at
the Economizing problem, also known to be the standard academic definition of
Economics, i.e. satisfy unlimited human needs under the constraint of the
limited resources. The definition was formulated from the following
definition: “Economics is the science which studies human behavior as a
relationship between ends and scarce means which have alternative uses”
(Robbins, 1932). The closest solution Economics provided came from Adam Smith when
he added the Capital as a 3rd mean of production after thousands of
years of only considering land & labor as the only means of production (Smith,
1776).
Key Words: Economizing problem, satisfy, needs, constraint, resources, behavior, ends, scarce, means, uses, solution, mean of production, land, labor.
