The Tyranny of Utility: Behavioral Social Science and the Rise of Paternalism
ISBN: 9780691128177 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. The general assumption that social policy should be utilitarian--that society should be organized to yield the greatest level of welfare--leads inexorably to increased government interventions. Historically, however, the science of economics has advocated limits to these interventions for utilitarian reasons and because of the assumption that people know what is best for themselves.

ISBN: 9780691128306 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Karl Marx predicted a world in which technical innovation would increasingly devalue and impoverish workers, but other economists thought the opposite, that it would lead to increased wages and living standards--and the economists were right.

The Economics of Rising Inequalities
ISBN: 9780199254026 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. From New York Times best-selling author Thomas Piketty and noted Professors of Economics Daniel Cohen and Gilles Saint-Paul, comes an in-depth discussion of rising inequalities in the western world.

Both the 'fundamentalist' view and the 'institutionalist' view have some relevance. For... From New York Times best-selling author Thomas Piketty and noted Professors of Economics Daniel Cohen and Gilles Saint-Paul, comes an in-depth discuss...
