Economics and the Good Life: Essays on Political Economy
ISBN: 9780765804280 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 317 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Bertrand de Jouvenel (1903-1987) was known in the United States primarily as a political scientist. His best-known works--On Power, Sovereignty, and The Pure Theory of Politics--all made distinctive contributions to our understanding of the modern state, and to the creation of a political science capable of civilizing that state. His work in the field of economics is relatively unknown in the United States, but like many writers in the contemporary field of political economy, de Jouvenel is not interested in expanding the claims of economy at the expense of polity. On the contrary,... Bertrand de Jouvenel (1903-1987) was known in the United States primarily as a political scientist. His best-known works--On Power, Sovereignty... |

Social Economics: Market Behavior in a Social Environment
ISBN: 9780674011212 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Economists assume that people make choices based on their preferences and their budget constraints. The preferences and values of others play no role in the standard economic model. This feature has been sharply criticized by other social scientists, who believe that the choices people make are also conditioned by social and cultural forces. Economists, meanwhile, are not satisfied with standard sociological and anthropological concepts and explanations because they are not embedded in a testable, analytic framework. In this book, Gary Becker and Kevin Murphy provide such a framework... Economists assume that people make choices based on their preferences and their budget constraints.

Economic Theory
ISBN: 9780202309804 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Others might have called this book Micro Theory or Price Theory. Becker's choice of Economic Theory as the title for his book reflects his deep belief that there is only one kind of economic theory, not separate theories for micro problems, macro problems, non-market decisions, and so on. Indeed, as he notes, the most promising development in recent years in the literature on large scale economic problems such as unemployment has been the increasing reliance on utility maximization, a concept generally identified with microeconomics. Microeconomics is the subject matter of this... Others might have called this book Micro Theory or Price Theory.

A Treatise on the Family: Enlarged Edition
ISBN: 9780674906990 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Imagine each family as a kind of little factory--a multiperson unit producing meals, health, skills, children, and self-esteem from market goods and the time, skills, and knowledge of its members. This is only one of the remarkable concepts explored by Gary Becker in his landmark work on the family. Becker applies economic theory to the most sensitive and fateful personal decisions, such as choosing a spouse or having children. He uses the basic economic assumptions of maximizing behavior, stable preferences, arid equilibria in explicit or implicit markets to analyze the allocation of time to...

Accounting for Tastes
ISBN: 9780674543577 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Economists generally accept as a given the old adage that there's no accounting for tastes. Nobel Laureate Gary Becker disagrees, and in this lively new collection he confronts the problem of preferences and values: how they are formed and how they affect our behavior. He argues that past experiences and social influences form two basic capital stocks: personal and social. He then applies these concepts to assessing the effects of advertising, the power of peer pressure, the nature of addiction, and the function of habits. This framework promises to illuminate many other realms of social life...

ISBN: 9780226041124 / Angielski / Miękka / 1978 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Since his pioneering application of economic analysis to racial discrimination, Gary S. Becker has shown that an economic approach can provide a unified framework for understanding all human behavior. In a highly readable selection of essays Becker applies this approach to various aspects of human activity, including social interactions; crime and punishment; marriage, fertility, and the family; and "irrational" behavior.
"Becker's highly regarded work in economics is most notable in the imaginative application of 'the economic approach' to a surprising breadth of human activity. Becker's...
