2. Translate the text. Economics
Alfred Marshall defined economics as the study of mankind in the everyday business life. There are other definitions too. But Marshall’s definition draws attention to that unique feature of human society: that unlike animals, man provides for his everyday needs by means of a complex pattern of production, distribution and exchange.
We need food, clothes and shelter. If we could get them without working, we probably would not work. But even when we have these essential things, we may want other things because they might make life more enjoyable. Human beings certainly have a wide and very complex range of wants. This everyday business of providing the means of life is called by the general term ‘economy’.
Economics is the study of economies. The science of economics is concerned with all that man produces and not just our basic needs like food, clothes and shelter. The science of economics is based upon the facts of our everyday lives and the general life of our communities. If we want to understand the whole economic system of which we are part we have to study carefully the economic activity of the society
Apart from production, distribution of products among various groups in society and exchange, economics studies the institutions that were created by man to promote economic development.
Economists are those who observe and study economic facts and produce economic theories. They try to describe the facts of the economy in which we live, and to explain how it all works. The economist’s methods should be strictly objective, if it is to be scientific. In order to understand the evolution of economy economists must study economies of man at different stages of his historic development. They studied primitive economies, economies of the ancient and the middle-age societies. But their main interest is being focused on the economy of the advanced industrial countries. It is not in good shape to-day. It is characterized by a low growth rate, unstable monetary system, stagnation of the employees’ income and rather high unemployment.
