8 Basic Concept of Exchanges & Trade  Introduction to Economics - Paradigm of Economics: Rational agents maximize (expected) profits or utilities - Economics is a story-telling that describes (interesting) social phenomena - In order to describe complicated social phenomenon, economics simplifies stories so that they can stress some important phenomena  Economics models are basically simplified stories - To strengthen our stories, we provide empirical evidence and facts.
