Evolutionary Economics

There is a school of thinking in economics known as evolutionary economics, which is influenced by the field of evolutionary biology. It regards economic growth as a process rather than an equilibrium and places an emphasis on change, innovation, complex interdependencies, self-evolving systems, and limited rationality as the drivers of economic evolution. Despite the fact that it is not defined by a clear set of principles and that it brings together a variety of methods, it treats economic development as a process. The support for the evolutionary approach to economics in recent decades appears to have initially originated as a criticism of the mainstream neoclassical economics. However, by the beginning of the 21st century, it had become a part of the economic mainstream itself for the first time.
