where one person improves his situation, it must come at the expense of
another whose situation has become worse. But one reason those who use power
models are not dubbed "dismal scientists" is that they are often utopian,
spuriously claiming that at some distant moment, all may win. [br] The passage suggests that an assumption underlying non-economist social scientists dismal of economics as dismal is that
