This book provides a comprehensive survey of optimal income tax theory, following the development of research strategy from the basic Mirrlees model through its refinements that examine how optimal tax rates and the shape of tax schedules are affected by new considerations. The author covers not only the historical background and modern formulations of the theory, but also extends his discussion to the most important extensions of the model and the interrelation of income tax with other instruments of tax and expenditure policy.

Resources, Deprivation, and Poverty
ISBN: 9780198287858 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The core issue of this book is how to define and measure poverty in relatively rich countries in a way which is valid, meaningful in the context, and valuable for policy-making. The authors concentrate on the identification of the poor, rather than the subsequent aggregation of the statistics to derive an overall index of poverty--which is the focus of most recent literature. They show that poverty in developed countries cannot be understood and measured simply using current income. Those who are excluded from participation in society can be more accurately identified if broader measures of...

ISBN: 9780198288053 / Angielski / Twarda / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Patnaik's starting point is the fundamental question of how we can exp lain the resilience and durability of capitalist economies-. He argues that the existence of a periphery of less developed countries provide s a buffer that allows (relatively) crisis-free and non-inflationary g rowth in the capitalist core. His analysis unifies two fields that are normally separate: models of growth and stabilization policy in advan ced economies and the economics of open, developing economies.

Bounded Rationality in Macroeconomics: The Arne Ryde Memorial Lectures
ISBN: 9780198288695 / Angielski / Miękka / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. How do people behave in new situations in which previous experience is not useful? The recent changes in Eastern Europe, for example, are unprecedented and there is not an available model on which to base the mechanisms that will govern the economics in this region. The concept of "bounded (or limited) rationality" is being developed to analyze behavior in such situations. In this book Thomas Sargent describes and interprets the recent work in the area, especially in statistics, econometrics, networks and artificial intelligence. He focuses on examples designed to illustrate the issues...

Macro Markets: Creating Institutions for Managing Society's Largest Economic Risks
ISBN: 9780198294184 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Arguing that we have largely inadequate financial markets, dealing with relatively small risks, Robert Shiller makes a unique set of proposals for marketizing the biggest economic risks faced by society today, risks that really matter to most people. The new markets could diminish the impact of international economic fluctuations and reduce the inequality of wealth. He proposes new international markets for claims on national incomes, on components and aggregates of national incomes, and for property such as real estate, and argues that these markets might dwarf our stock markets in their...

This intermediate-level text concentrates on new macroeconomic analysis and is one of the first to focus on labor markets.

Applied Macroeconometrics
ISBN: 9780198775836 / Angielski / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Until the 1970s, there was a consensus in applied macroeconometrics, both regarding the theoretical foundation and the empirical specification of macroeconometric modelling, commonly known as the Cowles Commission approach. This is no longer the case: the Cowles Commission approach broke down in the 1970s, replaced by three prominent competing methods of empirical research: the LSE (London School of Economics) approach, the VAR approach, and the intertemporal optimization/Real Business Cycle approach. This book discusses and illustrates the empirical research strategy of these three...
