Solution

The correct option is D Jacob Viner
Jacob Viner is an eminent international trade theorist, 1892-1970. He answered, “Economics is what economists do”. Viner had the point, when talking about a subject that has a history of constant change and development, why not simply look at the empirical facts and take instruction from what one observes?
