In diesem Buch argumentiert Kaushik Basu, einer der weltweit führenden Wirtschaftswissenschaftler, dass die traditionelle ökonomische Analyse des Rechts erhebliche Mängel aufweist und bestimmte kritische Fragen nicht zufriedenstellend beantworten kann. Warum werden gute Gesetze formuliert, aber nie umgesetzt? Wenn Gesetze nicht durchgesetzt werden, ist das dann ein Versagen des Gesetzes oder der Vollstrecker? Und, was am wichtigsten ist, wenn man bedenkt, dass Gesetze nur Worte auf dem Papier sind, warum sind sie dann wirksam? Basu bietet eine provokante Alternative, wie die Beziehung...

Inequality and Growth: Patterns and Policy, Volume II: Regions and Regularities
ISBN: 9781137554574 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych.

Early evidence seemed to suggest that this pattern would be borne out. But, as time passed and growth persisted, inequality continued to grow, casting doubt on the received wisdom. The aim of this two-volume book is to analyze the current state of global and regional inequality, dissect the phenomenal increase in inequality that we have seen occur in recent times, and better understand the complex relationship between...
