Quantitative aspects [or] quantitative economics


In economics, we normally use quantitative economics or econometrics, but not something as abstruse as mathematical logic.

I attempt to translate part of your text as follows:

a. Economics as a science
b. Economic theory
c. Economic logic (or economic reasoning)
c.1 The formal aspects
c.2 Quantitative aspects
c.3 The language of quantitative economics

d. The market economy
e. Microeconomics and macroeconomics: the macroeconomic aggregates
f. Macroeconomics: the circular flow
g. Short-term and long-term equilibrium and growth

( and so on)

Hope this helps.
