This article gives an appraisal of the work of David Colander. His economic focus and the problems he pursued made him a different economist. Colander was less interested in theory and more concerned with policy and applied economics since he saw most economists doing applied policy and teaching. What limited the work and teaching of most economists was using a strict method of science when a different method that is more eclectic would be more appropriate. A crucial part of his work is viewing the economy and the economic profession as an adaptive complex system.
