James Buchanan And Peaceful Cooperation - From Public Finance To A Theory Of Collective Action

by Alain Marciano

~~23,85€~~ 21,47€ 10% OFF

 Buchanan believed that individuals are fundamentally willing to cooperate with others. It was at the center of his works in public finance in the late 1940s and early 1950s, and also crucial to his work in public choice in the 1960s. The purpose of this book is to show which forms this belief took over these two decades or so, and to explain the continuity between these forms. We adopt a historical approach that allows us to recount the story of how Buchanan came to develop a theory of collective action, including his conception of cooperation in small groups, to implement a technical condition about the pricing of public goods he defended early in his career. We describe the different steps Buchanan took, the encounters that influenced him, and the events and challenges that led him to revise his views to make room for this fundamental philosophical conviction.

 Democracies can't truly be indebted. The language of public debt is an ideological language, not a scientific language that clarifies the practice of public finance.

Cultural Considerations Within Austrian Economics

by Arielle (George Mason University, Virginia) John e Virgil (George Mason University, Virginia) Storr

~~24,33€~~ 17,03€ 30% OFF

 We consider three important differences of Austrian approaches to economics compared to non-Austrian: focus on culture as meaning rather than as norms, beliefs, or attitudes; emphasis on culture as an interpretative lens rather than a tool of capital; and insistence that cultural analysis be a qualitative exercise rather than a quantitative one.
