Can economics explain more than sociology or/and psychology?

Well, that would depend on who you are talking to.

With RM:AO, Affectance explains all of physics, economics, psychology, and sociology. But it doesn’t explain any of it in terms that are common today. Each of those fields can be organized in the exact same manner to include all of the exact same relationships within every field.

I see it as asking, “Which number system best explains the number 8, binary or octal?

Of course when dealing with contemporary terminology, any field that has numbers associated with it will “explain” more than the others. None of the mentioned fields have a complete explanation for their field. Knowing WHY anything happens is essential and none of them are very good at that.

Psychology is harder to ontologically define and experiment on than the others. Then sociology. Then economics.

There are two types of economics, the well known kind, which pretains to the control of the materials used to feed, house, and support humanity, and the hidden one of Freudian economics, which deals with
the nexus of spatially determinitve and mathematically represented topicality of the incursion of the ID into the vestiges of the self. Since that type of economy is also as determinative and is classified as a psychological derivitive, it’s safe to say, that the social-psychological factoring into the former type of economy is a matter of priority and focus. So the cosclusion in this way can be safely a mixture of aggregates of the above classificatios, with overlap, and focus upon the pre-pondrence of qualifiers within that particular assessment. That there are no clear separators between the groups, is a matter of conecture, depending on, the one which needs critical appraisal. That the groups are not at all absolutely exclusive, there is no doubt.

The same can not be said about the others: vis, psychology and sociology, since their appearant exclusivity has been pretty well estabished, although social psychology is a pretty well established study, it is not based on a double formulation, only a hybrid one.

Arminius You will surely find fault with this, but i assure You to Your merit in that case, that Freud was vague about this, as was Levin, in his topical assesment, based on a mathematical formulae. However, as theortical as it is, the intro into types of economies issuggestive. Nevertheless, it doesen’t effec the vote, and is introduced as a way of reinforcement into the obvious explanation.

Mathematical formulae do not show and prove or disprove anything and everything. But mathematical formulae are very suited for economics, despite the fact that some of them are completely redundant.

Economic is both natural and cultural.

Accurate economic models follow sociological and psychological models.

Why do you think there are entire advertisement firms that have departments dedicated to that stuff?

Of course any psychological or sociological forms of thinking that don’t address socio economic pressures are flawed from the get go. That’s practically a given.

It is the economic reality that dictates, for example the part of reality that money causes.

The societies with the lowest fertility are not the wealthiest societies:

Economics explains nothing. It is descriptive only.

It is a poor attempt to describe the relationship between money and resources in human society.
It is classes as pseudo-science as it has the appearance of science but is fraught through with ideological assumptions that are mobilised by politics to favour the sectional interests of the elites that wield them. It barely touches on sociology and psychology, but some of its data can assist in those disciplines.

When was it?

When was what? :-s

Economics, aka THe Dark Arts, is at the Arse End of pseudo-science. Sociology and psychology can help explain economic. Economics has NO explanatory power at all.
Economics is a process of data gathering and guess work that attempts to retrodict how these data change, but when it comes to prediction economics is worse than weather prediction.
A single human is less predictable than the causes of the weather, and since economics tries to predict the ativities of millions of humans and many other factors is the reason it fails against and again.

When did the USA start to import vast numbers of people from Niger?

And by the way: How many have they imported till now?

They were heavily importing during the 80-90’s, providing $100k homes, jobs, and [liberal] voting tickets with instructions. I don’t know when they started nor do I keep track of the numbers. In California, the Mexicans migrate in huge numbers to the point that in Oregon, even further North, rather than teaching Canadian French (a close neighbor), the schools teach Spanish as a mandatory second language for the children.

The Spanish speakers are more than the French speakers, and French is merely a second language, whereas Spanish is a first language.

If I look at economics vs. psychology, it feels like apples bicycles to me. With sociology vs. economics I can see one swallowing the other more easily, sociological economics or economic sociology.

But with psychology vs. economics it seems we are coming at different phenomena, with overlaps of course.

If I want to know why Joe did something and not something else, in many situations I will get no answers from economics. Perhaps the category of people Joe is in, low income white guys with college degrees, will then give me statistical probabilities, though here sociology seems dragged in. But Joe as an individual, no. Then also all that Joe experiences, the sujective end of psychology, the interior side, would also not be covered by economics which is necessarily Behaviorist, or?

The same issues come up around interpersonal dynamics. Yes, explanations for category interactions - single working class guy exchanges smile with blah, blah women at bar…but again this is statistical. What Joe experiences and even does when encountering the woman at the bar can be guessed at, perhaps bet on fairly well - as long as one is a carefully better, has great statistics and uses a large sample - but it does not help me zero in on Joe.

Pscyhology also can do little to help with many of the patterns economics is focused on.

If we hold mathematics up as an example of measuring how much can be explained, then we can say: economics means much mathematics with many formulas and not merely statistics, whereas psychology and especially sociology mean almost no mathematics except merely some formulas and statistics.

Market economics is a complete fiction and construct especially concerning traditional social hierarchy. There is nothing natural about it and it is all built upon bullshit obfuscations or assumptions of human nature.

Not much natural but much mathematical about it.

Many people fear economics too, …
