Economics & Management Faculty Faculty

Economics is a social science that deals with the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services and it also deals with how societies use scarce resources to produce valuable commodities and distribute them among different people. Behind this definition are two key ideas in economics: that goods are scarce and that society must use its resources efficiently. Indeed, economics is an important subject because of the fact of scarcity and the desire for efficiency.

Throughout the world economists are laboring to collect data and improve our understanding of economic trends. Moreover, economists are studying and trying to explain a wide and expanding array of activities, ranging from international trade to unemployment and inflation and poverty, from investing retirement funds to controlling pollution. Economic analysis, both theoretical and empirical, can generate important insights into individual and aggregate behavior and relationships, and help in society’s efforts to use scarce resources in a more efficient manner.

In the Afghan society, after many years of war and destruction, now by the grace of Allah the golden opportunity is presented to move towards economic growth and development.
