Summary

INTRODUCTION

Usage of Mathematics in Economics, to a certain extent is both unavoidable and necessary. The phrase “Mathematisation of Economics'' has become very common, even in academic writings, in referring to this evolutionary phenomenon This short essay is based on a review of some of the literature, existing in the form of journal articles, books, research reports and websites, in order to establish perhaps a finer microscopic view into this very valuable and timely debate. Existing models should be analyzed thoroughly to see whether they would address the post-COVID-19 requirements at all. If not, perhaps it could be modified or else create a new model that would fit in well with the current requirements and the future expectations of the world. An in-depth look at the effect of mathematics in economics could be a vital ingredient that should not be left out of the recipes for creating these decision-making models and procedures
