English term or phrase: are and the more real...
Ese "are" al final de la frase antes de "and" me tiene un poco complicada, no sé como traducir esa frase.
Gracias por la ayuda.

Secondly, the quality of an economic theory should not be judged by the realism of its assumptions but by its explanatory and predictive power. This power is the larger, the more general (i. e. the less qualified by many “if”- clauses) its basic assumptions are and the more real world phenomena are covered by the theory.

Kate Major: 11:33pm Oct 1, 2007: yes, it's confusing. If they had put a comma after the 'are' and before the 'and' it would've been clearer. '...the more general [...] its basic assumptions are, and the more real....' Does that help with the sense of the phrase? Hope so.

Este poder es más amplio (...) cuanto más generales sean sus supuestos básicos y cuanto más fenómenos del mundo real estén cubiertos por la teoría.
